The most universal benefit from hosting clean energy projects is local property tax revenue. However, when polled, a majority of residents say they are unsure of whether nearby projects have any impact at all on the local economy, roads and government services, and schools. It’s all happening out of sight.
Better tax policy can give clean energy projects the credit they deserve. As developers seek buy-in for clean energy projects across the country, smarter tax policy can provide substantial, predictable revenues for communities and create more project finance certainty for developers.
In this webinar, the Siting Solutions Project team breaks down recommendations from our newest report, See It to Believe It: Principles for Effective Clean Energy Tax Policy – detailing tax policy solutions that states can implement now to provide tangible revenue that communities can connect with the clean energy projects that provided them.
