Regulatory & Incentives

Energy incentives and rules, navigated for commercial owners.

Commercial owners face two things at once: building performance standards (LL97, BERDO, BEPS) and a stack of incentives (SREC and REC markets, state tariffs and grants, utility dispatch programs, C-PACE financing and federal tax credits). Each program below is paired with its operating case, so you see the compliance math and the economics together.

For qualifying projects NOI checks eligibility, models each program as its own line, prepares and files the applications, and handles enrollment, event participation and reporting once the system is running. Start with a free energy assessment.
