Clean Energy Project Economics Under the Inflation Reduction Act

Project developers, asset owners, and portfolio managers of renewable energy sites need to know:

• The potential value of standalone energy storage
• Where it makes the most sense to add storage
• The differences between the Storage ITC and Solar Production Tax Credit (PTC)
• Which credit may provide better project returns
• If your project is likely to qualify for federal tax credits

At Stem, we view the investments within the IRA as transformational for our country, the energy industry, and our many partners and customers. As we continue to accelerate the clean energy transition, we anticipate the legislation will create significant new opportunities for clean energy, storage, and solar projects.

This eBook is based on economic analysis by Stem’s storage, policy, and regulatory experts who bring more than 2GW of storage project experience across the US.
