View of government building with American flag.The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) outlines additional tax incentives focused on energy-efficient upgrades to commercial buildings. This also includes the construction of new energy-efficient dwelling units such as apartments, condominiums, and multi-family and single-family homes. Though these programs previously existed, the IRA expanded and modified them significantly. While these are both tax incentives, one takes the form of accelerated depreciation (Section 179D) and the other is a production tax credit (Section 45L).

During this view on-demand webinar, our tax professionals will discuss these tax incentives, dive deeper into qualifying requirements, and talk through the specific rules for each.
