ICLEI USA Insights & Exchange: Success Stories on Navigating the Elective Pay Program to Fund Climate Projects
As local governments across the U.S. set ambitious climate goals and forge plans to cut emissions, the Inflation Reduction Act’s Elective Pay process is proving to be a game-changer. This mechanism, established in 2022, makes certain clean energy tax credits refundable for tax-exempt organizations.
We invite you to an insightful discussion featuring three local governments that have successfully utilized elective pay to fund their projects. Hear firsthand from San Antonio, TX; Denver, CO; and Sun Prairie, WI about their experiences, challenges, and the invaluable lessons they’ve learned along the way.
Featured Speakers:
- Dr. Rose Daily, Sustainability Coordinator, City of Sun Prairie, WI
- Doug Melnick, Chief Sustainability Officer, City of San Antonio, TX
- Drew Halpern, Senior Energy Project Manager, City of Denver, DO
- Brian McCartan, Climate Finance Advisor, ICLEI USA
This session is designed for municipal sustainability staff who are curious about or planning to pursue elective pay. ICLEI members and representatives from local and regional governments are welcome to attend.
