From Eligibility to Execution — We work with you.
The ITC rules have grown more complex with new deadlines and compliance requirements under recent legislation. IPOWER assists your tax advisors with the information they need.
Eligibility Assessment
We will provide the project details to share with your tax advisors to confirm whether you or your project qualifies for the ITC — and which bonus adders apply.
Credit Maximization Strategy
We identify all applicable adders — prevailing wage, domestic content, energy community — and structure your project to capture the highest possible credit rate.
Application & Documentation
We prepare all necessary certifications, cost basis documentation, and safe-harbor filings to substantiate and protect your credit.
Deploy Into Energy Systems
We help you redeploy your tax credit savings into a custom energy management system — solar, storage, EV charging, and intelligent controls — for compounding returns.

What Qualifies for the ITC?
The Section 48E Clean Electricity Investment Tax Credit covers a broad range of commercial energy technologies. IPOWER designs your specific project aligned with the current IRS guidelines.
— Our Process

Solar + Storage Integration
Pair your ITC-qualified solar and battery systems with IPOWER's intelligent controls to maximize self-consumption and minimize demand charges.
AutoDash® Real-Time Monitoring
IPOWER's proprietary AutoDash® platform monitors solar output, storage, EV chargers, and HVAC in one dashboard — turning data into actionable savings.
Dynamic Load Management
Automatically shift energy-intensive loads — including EV charging — to off-peak windows, reducing demand charges by up to 20% on your utility bill.
Ongoing O&M and Reporting

— Act Before Deadlines
ITC Critical Timeline for Commercial Projects
Recent legislation has accelerated key deadlines. Understanding where your project stands relative to these milestones is essential to preserving your full credit value.
Full 30% ITC + Adders Available
Commercial solar, storage, EV charging, and energy management projects can qualify for up to 30–60% credit under Section 48E with proper structuring and prevailing wage compliance.
Residential ITC (Section 25D) Expires
The residential clean energy credit has been repealed for expenditures after December 31, 2025. Homeowners with pending projects should act immediately.
Begin Construction Before This Date
Commercial solar and wind projects must begin construction by July 4, 2026, to remain eligible for the full ITC. Projects 1.5MW+ must satisfy the Physical Work Test — not merely the 5% Safe Harbor.
Placed-In-Service Deadline
Projects that began construction by July 2026 must be placed in service (fully operational) by December 31, 2027 to qualify. Projects receiving FEOC-restricted equipment must plan sourcing accordingly.
Commercial ITC Significantly Curtailed
Solar and wind projects that do not meet construction/placement deadlines will see significantly reduced or eliminated federal investment credits. Begin planning now to lock in today's incentives.
Don't Leave Federal Tax Credits on the Table
The window to qualify for the full ITC is narrowing. IPOWER Alliance offers a no-cost initial consultation to evaluate your eligibility and map out how tax credit savings can fund your next energy system.
