The trusted platform for selling clean energy tax credits

The IRA changed tax credits

With the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act, the tax credits from new clean energy projects are now transferable, which means you can sell them at a discount to any company with a tax liability through a simple sale transaction.

Before the IRA

Before the Inflation Reduction Act, tax credits could not be sold, did not reward impact, and were being phased out in 2025.

After the IRA

Tax credits are extended through 2032 and their amount now depends on project attributes ranging from 6-70%.

Tools for Project Developers

With the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act, clean energy tax credits can now climb as high as 70% if you build projects just right.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sell tax credits on a project located in a U.S. territory?

If your project is located in or will be used in a U.S. territory (Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa or the Northern Mariana Islands) and you are seeking an investment tax credit, special rules apply as to whether your project can qualify, based on pre-IRA provisions located in sections 50(b)(1) and 168(g)(4) of the tax code.

In order to be eligible for this type of credit, your project must be owned by a domestic corporation or a United States citizen that is not a bona fide resident of a U.S. territory;  a “domestic corporation” for this purpose is a corporation organized under the laws of one of the fifty states or the District of Columbia.  Therefore, projects built or used in a U.S. territory owned by a resident of a U.S. territory or a corporation organized under the laws of a U.S. territory will not be eligible.  

Note that “investment tax credit” for this purpose includes any credit based on the value of a renewable energy property that you are building or have acquired - such as the tax credit for recharging stations under section 30C, the credit for commercial clean vehicles under 45W, the credits for renewable electricity generation facilities under section 48 and 48E, or the credit for advanced renewable energy manufacturing facilities under section 48C.  

If you are located in a U.S. territory and are seeking a production tax credit, no special rules apply to you and you may qualify to the same extent as you would if located in one of the fifty states.

How does the tax credit transfer process work?

Ever.green connects sellers with potential buyers through a matching process (i.e., bid/auction). Following this, due diligence is conducted, and a purchase agreement, along with other necessary documents, is signed. After the project is completed, the seller must obtain an IRS registration number. Once these steps are completed - such as validating the ITC amount and project completion - the transaction is finalized, funds are transferred and all required documents are filed with the IRS.
