In the 20th century, it was location, location, location! Today, it's all about electricity access and energy availability. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) help commercial buildings meet capacity needs, reduce peak electricity charges, and attract top tenants.
Peak demand charges can make up 50% + of your electric bill.
Lower your peak. Lower your costs.
As electrification, AI infrastructure, and data-heavy operations increase demand on the grid, tenants are paying closer attention to reliability and energy costs.
Access to scalable, dependable power can be the difference between a real estate "deal" or "no deal." Adding batteries today ensures your building remains leasable tomorrow.
Batteries benefit from a base 30% Federal ITC through 2033, though many sites are eligible for additional "adders" that can push credits even higher.
Brand new, highly-lucrative, incentive programs are being rolled out to encourage battery installations. These programs will decline over time; hitting early is key.
