Federal Fund for Public Energy Investments

How schools and government entities are getting up to 70% cash back on their energy projects

New federal incentive programs are giving schools, municipalities, public universities, nonprofits, tribal governments, public hospitals, and other tax-exempt organizations a powerful opportunity to recover significant cash from investments in energy technology projects. Through elective pay, eligible organizations may be able to receive direct cash payments tied to projects involving energy systems, energy storage, facility upgrades, and other qualifying technologies.

In this short webinar, Holly Paz, Former IRS Commissioner and architect of the IRS’ Investment Tax Credit and Direct Pay programs, explains what public and tax-exempt entities need to know about this opportunity. The discussion will cover who can qualify, what types of projects may be eligible, how the credit can reach up to 70% of project costs, what compliance requirements must be satisfied, and where organizations most often make costly mistakes.
