Description (excerpt):
Tax-exempt entities can accelerate the adoption of solar photovoltaics (PV) among low-to-moderate income (LMI) communities. Leveraging the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), these organizations can take on the role of a third-party owner. This paper is intended to provide a primer on this model to interested tax-exempt entities, which might include community development financial institutions (CDFIs), green banks, electric cooperatives, 501(c)(3) organizations, and others.
