Typical projects include solar PV and storage, EV Level 2 and DC fast charging, battery energy storage (BESS), building electrification, microgrids, and resiliency hubs.

Why Use Incentivators

We manage incentives like a capital project—structured, deadline-driven, and fully documented to support eligibility, approval, verification, and payout.

Our Energy Incentives Process

Step 1 — Project Intake and Eligibility Scan

We capture the facts that determine incentive eligibility: asset type, location, ownership entity, utility territory, scope, costs, interconnection status, and schedule.

Outputs

  • Initial eligibility map

  • Required pre-approvals and trigger deadlines

Step 2 — Incentive Discovery Across All Program Layers

We identify incentives across:

  • Federal programs (tax credits and applicable pathways)

  • State and local programs

  • Utility rebates and make-ready infrastructure programs

  • Sector-specific funding opportunities (where relevant)

Outputs

  • Master incentive inventory

  • Deadlines, requirements, estimated values, and constraints

Step 3 — Stacking and Optimization Strategy

We determine the best legal combination of incentives—avoiding conflicts, double counting, and disqualifying structures.

Outputs

  • Stacking plan and sequence

  • Documentation checklist and responsibility matrix

  • Incentive timeline aligned to procurement and construction

Step 4 — Documentation, Applications, and Stakeholder Coordination

We manage the workflow across internal teams and external parties (utility, city/state agencies, consultants, EPCs).

Outputs

  • Complete submission packages

  • Evidence-ready documentation (quotes, invoices, spec sheets, commissioning)

  • Submission tracking and escalation management

Step 5 — Compliance, Verification, and Payout Support

Incentives often fail late due to missing verification details. We handle closeout requirements, field verification support, and audit-ready reporting.

Outputs

  • Closeout package

  • Verification support

  • Payout tracking and issue resolution

Step 6 — Post-Award Optimization and Portfolio Scaling

For multi-site or phased programs, we turn the first win into a repeatable engine.

Outputs

  • Playbook for future sites

  • Standardized templates

  • Program updates and re-optimization cycles
