A tax credit transaction worth US$60 million using new transferability mechanisms from the Inflation Reduction Act has closed, for a BESS project deployed by Energy Vault for W Power and Wellhead Electric.
Renewable energy developer and operator Arevon has completed the financing for a 600MWh solar and storage project in California, US, including US$191 million of investment tax credits (ITC) provided using new transferability provisions.
The transferability provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in the US “will unlock billions” in capital for clean energy, said financing firm Evergrow as it claimed the first tax credit transfer transaction.
Just over a year ago, the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act brought in what has been considered the biggest legislative action on climate seen in the US.
