Elective Pay — also called Direct Pay — is a new option created by the Inflation Reduction Act that allows cities, nonprofits, schools, tribes, and other tax‑exempt organizations to receive cash payments from the IRS equal to the value of clean‑energy tax credits, even though they don’t pay federal income taxes.

In simple terms: You build a qualifying clean‑energy project, and the federal government pays you the tax credit in cash.

Traditionally, only private companies with tax liability could use clean‑energy tax credits.

• Install solar and battery storage
• Modernize buildings with clean‑energy upgrades
• Deploy EV charging and smart‑city infrastructure
• Reduce long‑term energy costs
• Reinvest savings back into the community
