For commercial building owners, the use of solar systems means a significantly reduced and stabilized cost structure. Solar systems are used in commercial applications such as space heating for open industrial or warehouse areas and water heating for industrial processes and commercial kitchens. Municipalities can use renewable energy to lower water heating costs for pools, civic centres, and municipal buildings. Larger project will enjoy a shorter term payback, and with systems that are designed to last 20 years, the municipality will enjoy years of free energy.
