Nicholas Mowbray

Nonprofits have largely been left out of the credit world, but we're increasingly seeing new credits legislated that provide big benefits to nonprofits. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) opened up new avenues to monetize credits. One of these avenues is a new “direct pay” election that allows tax-exempt organizations to elect to treat certain renewable energy tax credits as refundable payments of tax. While nonprofits have had the ability to participate in creative structures to benefit from other types of credits, the renewable energy incentives within the IRA are truly a game changer when addressing a project’s capital stack. This interactive session will provide attendees with a deeper understanding of the renewable energy incentives under the IRA and the types of projects that generate the renewable energy incentives .
