Renewable energy projects in the United States are promoted through significant tax subsidies, but it is often challenging for developers to utilize these tax benefits. As a result, many developers enter into tax equity transactions to monetize these tax benefits. This course provides an overview of the tax benefits available for renewable energy projects in the United States. It describes the requirements to qualify for those credits and common transactions entered into by developers with tax equity investors in order to monetize these tax benefits.

Excellent presentation; clear & helpful. Extremely knowledgeable presenter.
A scholarly approach to material that may seem difficult and foreign to most practitioners made easy, accessible and understandable by an accomplished speaker.

Very informative
