Solar Lighting Incentives in Mississippi

From Jackson to Southaven and all the way down to Gulfport, Mississippi is making the switch to commercial outdoor solar lighting. The Magnolia State has always played a dynamic role in the commerce of America since the early days of the country. Now, this dynamism has extended into the world of solar. By installing Greenshine solar lights you can immediately—and at almost any time of the year—start saving on your energy costs.
From the deltas of the Mighty Mississippi to the port cities that sprung around it, using the power of the state’s natural resources has always been a part of the Mississippian way. 

Now with solar lighting, new industries, opportunities, and incentives are being created just like how the Mississippi River did years ago. Incentives and programs in the state have propped up the industry to make it not just competitive but in some cases more affordable than traditionally-powered methods that have dominated the state for quite some time. Federal Investment Tax Credits (ITC) can save you 30% on the cost of installing outdoor solar powered lights.

There are more incentives to keep money in your pocket beyond these! Commercial solar powered lighting saves you time and money by avoiding trenching and wiring which can tear up your streets and bank account. For comparison, trenching for original power lines may cost you $75,000 while our services run an average of $45,000. That’s a savings of $30,000! Not to mention the additional year-over-year saving costs of installing solar-lighting.

Greenshine New Energy makes it easy to install solar powered lighting for your business or municipality. There has never been a better time to switch to outdoor solar power lighting to reap the benefits of Mississippi’s natural resources.
