Renewable Energy Tax Credits: An Opportunity to Sustainably Optimize Taxes
Investment Tax Credits (“ITCs”) and Production Tax Credits (“PTCs”, and together with ITCs, “RETCs”) have existed for decades and reflect the U.S. government’s commitment to incentivizing clean energy solutions in industry and commerce.

This article discusses how RETCs may benefit both buyers and sellers in an increasingly uncertain environment.
