The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 has created tax credit opportunities for clean energy projects in the U.S., but in order to maximize credit opportunities it is vital to strategically site your project. Projects on land designated as low-income, Tribal land or as an "energy community" may be eligible for significantly larger tax credits.
