Businesses are increasingly driving renewable energy adoption and innovation in the U.S. and will continue to play a crucial role in the transition to a clean energy economy. This trend has been largely influenced by growing pressures from customers and investors, which have propelled a wave of corporate sustainability commitments in a variety of industries.
"We've seen a considerable shift towards renewable energy and sustainability across our clients in recent years. Companies are more commonly considering the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of their operations and are responding to customer demand by setting ambitious sustainability goals. ISG Energy has developed unique buying strategies and management programs to guide clients through these initiatives. REBA provides great opportunities to collaborate with like-minded businesses and a platform to share best practices."
Tommy Greer, Vice President - ISG Enterprise Energy Solutions
Once targets are set, however, businesses generally require external support to properly evaluate the investment options and financial risks of renewable energy projects. ISG's team of energy and sustainability experts work with clients to develop renewable energy purchasing strategies that minimize cost premiums and financial risks, while maximizing the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of their commitments.
ISG Energy is currently coordinating with REBA to introduce a novel approach to purchasing renewable energy, utilizing specialized Opportunity Zone tax incentives. These tax benefits, which incentivize investments in economically distressed communities, can be used to enhance the economics of localized solar VPPA's while driving economic development in rural communities. As companies seek to maximize the total impact of their sustainability commitments, localized solar projects, aided by Opportunity Zone funding, represent a new and exciting opportunity to amplify the socioeconomic impacts of renewable energy purchases without sacrificing financial performance.
