ABOUT THE SUMMIT

 

Get Up to Speed on Optimizing the Use of Tax Incentives From the Most Conequential Clean Energy Finance Legislation in U.S. History

The enactment of the IRA radically expands the range of projects able to seek tax equity, traditionally fundamental to the financing of clean energy projects. The potential to layer adders for energy and low-income communities, local content, and other factors to significantly boost returns has made structuring projects even more critical in today’s booming development market. With traditional wind and solar projects now competing with storage, CCUS, hydrogen and other projects for tax equity investment, only those who are fully informed on the latest changes in tax policies, incentives, supply chain requirements and tax equity market conditions will be able to take full advantage of the remarkable clean energy opportunities fostered by the IRA and other recent legislation.

Tax Incentives 2023: Optimizing Post-IRA Opportunities will bring attendees 100% up to speed on today’s most important issues, providing detailed explanations of the solutions being utilized in today’s most advanced clean energy projects. On top of presenting a detailed report on policy innovations and current market conditions, our expert faculty will walk through the seemingly three-dimensional chess game involved in structuring projects to take advantage of multiple available adders while avoiding potential risks and hidden costs, as well as how to best meet and document new wage, apprenticeship and domestic equipment requirements. Leading tax advisors and tax equity providers will also provide insights on the development of the transfer market, when to take the direct payment option, as well as the ins and outs of tapping into funding through expanded 45Q, 45V and 45Z Sections.
