179D Certification for Energy Efficiency Projects

You may be eligible for a federal tax deduction of up to $1.80 per square foot for improving the energy efficiency of your existing commercial buildings. This also applies to new construction and for government and non-profit buildings. Originating as part of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, this incentive expires at the end of 2013.

Third-party certification is required to claim this incentive, and Capital Review Group is a third party certifier.  With our certification comes assurance that your energy project will achieve maximum value from the perspective of engineering and technical performance as well as incentives and financial performance. Beginning with certification, CRG will apply additional tax-related strategies to enhance financial performance.

Returns on investment in energy efficiency projects are generally quite favorable when incentives are applied. However, capturing all beneficial tax effects requires that both engineering and tax strategy are performed in sync — this is where CRG adds exceptional value for our clients.
