Frequently Asked Questions
Under the expanded incentive, businesses will be able to claim a 125% deduction in the first year for all renewable energy projects with no thresholds on generation capacity. The adjusted incentive will only be available for investments brought into use for the first time between 1 March 2023 and 28 February 2025.
The deduction will reduce its tax liability to SARS, as long as the business has a positive taxable income.
Example: a renewable energy investment of R1 million would qualify for a deduction of R1.25 million. Using the tax rate, this deduction could reduce the corporate income tax liability of a company by R337 500 in the first year.

Systems generating excess solar are able to sell electricity back into the City’s electricity grid and be credited at the SSEG Feed-in tariff rate. SSEG Customers are now able to be net generators (previously only net consumers, i.e. buy more electricity from the network than they fed in).
Contact AWPower to learn more.
To learn more about selling excess commercial solar power back to the grid read this article from the City of Cape Town’s website.
Commercial solar systems generate electricity from our planet’s key renewable energy source, the sun.
Businesses can significantly lower their carbon emissions through the power of solar, which contributes to overall corporate sustainability goals and helps combat climate change.
When clients see a business adopting solar power, it demonstrates the business’s commitment to environmental stewardship and enhances a company’s reputation as a socially responsible organisation.
