Agenda

With billions of state government dollars devoted to providing tax credits and other incentives for “going green,” businesses have more opportunities than ever to benefit from investing in energy efficient solutions and projects.

But there’s only one problem. As the various types of tax breaks and other incentives continue to accumulate across 50 state tax jurisdictions, it has become more difficult than ever to wade through all the rules and regulations.

In this Webinar, two experts in the field show you how to identify, claim, and maximize green incentives for your client or business. They will also highlight negotiating strategies and key contract provisions that will protect a taxpayer that becomes unable to comply with an incentive program’s ongoing requirements. Other issues such as the transferability of incentives to related or non-related entities will also be addressed.
