Increased Investment Deduction for Businesses in 2025: Smart Investments in Sustainable Technologies

Great news for companies planning to invest in sustainable technologies: the tax advantage for investments in 2025 will increase to 40%. This offers businesses a unique opportunity to reduce both their ecological footprint and gain financial benefits.

What Does the Increased Investment Deduction Mean?

In 2025, the investment deduction for businesses investing in solar panels, charging stations, and industrial batteries will be significantly increased. Where the percentage was previously at a standard level, companies can now count on a deduction of up to 40% of the investment amount. This means that a quarter of the investment can be directly deducted from the taxable profit.

Why Invest Now?

The increased investment deduction applies exclusively to investments made in 2025. By acting promptly, businesses can take full advantage of this benefit. Investing in solar panels, charging stations, and batteries not only offers fiscal advantages but also reduces long-term energy costs and contributes to the sustainability of your business.

Which Technologies Are Eligible?

  • Solar Panels: By investing in solar energy, companies can reduce their dependence on the electricity grid and stabilize their energy costs.

  2. Consult an Expert: Get advice from experts to make the right choices and maximize the benefits.
  3. Start on Time: Ensure that your investment is made within the 2025 timeframe to qualify for the increased deduction.
