SEATTLE, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, LevelTen Energy announced the launch of the LevelTen Tax Credit Marketplace to facilitate the purchase and sale of federal clean energy tax credits, a key provision of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that is expected to unlock hundreds of billions of dollars to support the United States' energy transition. LevelTen's newest marketplace enables corporations, tax advisors, and sustainability advisors to procure tax credits from an extensive network of approximately 600 clean energy developers in the U.S. It also includes streamlined management of requests for proposals (RFPs), deal diligence, and transaction execution. Furthermore, tax credit buyers have the option to leverage LevelTen's full suite of transaction infrastructure – multiple clean energy marketplaces, transaction software, and data dashboards – to simultaneously achieve their emissions reduction goals and lower their tax burdens by procuring a power purchase agreement (PPA) or renewable energy certificates (RECs) in addition to tax credits.

Key Points: 
  • LevelTen's newest marketplace enables corporations, tax advisors, and sustainability advisors to procure tax credits from an extensive network of approximately 600 clean energy developers in the U.S.
  • The IRA's "transferability" rule allows tax credit sponsors, including clean energy project developers, to "transfer" their tax credits by selling them for cash to corporations seeking to lower their tax burden.
  • Many clean energy developers sell their tax credits because they lack the adequate tax burden to use them efficiently.
  • Developers are eager for more tax credit investors, and the clean energy transition is at stake," said Patrick Worrall, Vice President of Tax Credit Marketplace at LevelTen Energy.
