Tax Equity Transfers. Tax equity transfers are a game changer for monetization of the valuable tax credits but there’s a minor wrinkle. Typically when tax equity was in play, it was either funded at NTP or bridged by the construction loan since the takeout financing was in place. With credits, takeout funding is a bit more flexible and nuanced. So here’s the question to the SolarWakeup think tank, who’s doing the best structure and funding tax equity bridges from NTP to commercial operation for the tax credits? If you are, send those names this way so I can help connect both sides of the table.
