Location: C202 - C204, Level 2, Building C
With the introduction of the energy communities tax credit bonus in the Inflation Reduction Act, what new opportunities does this unlock for developers, utilities, non-profits and others in the Southeast to invest in underserved communities around the region? In this session, panelists will explain how their companies are understanding this development from an investment and ESG perspective, what mapping tools are available to developers looking to build projects in these "energy community" locations, how this tax credit bonus fits into the broader context of state and local legislation across the region and what this legislation means for equity in the clean energy transition going forward.
