Frequently Asked Questions
Generally, clean energy project developers (like solar or wind energy companies) can sell tax credits. Corporations or investors with large tax liabilities can buy them to reduce their tax bills. Eligibility depends on meeting certain IRS and IRA requirements.
Tax credit transferability allows businesses or project developers to sell their unused clean energy tax credits to other companies. This creates more flexibility and helps unlock the value of the credits, even if the original owner doesn’t have enough tax liability to use them.
Benefits: Sellers get immediate cash flow; buyers reduce their tax liability. It also encourages more investment in clean energy.
Risks: There are compliance requirements, and both parties must ensure proper documentation and valuation to avoid IRS issues.
• Project earns tax credits by meeting clean energy and compliance standards
