We map every California and federal credit a behind-the-meter carbonate fuel cell project can stack at your site — SGIP step strategy, post-OBBBA federal ITC, biogas RIN treatment, CPUC interconnection sequencing — sized and sequenced so the cash hits when you actually need it.
Each pool is a different rulebook with a different counterparty. We unify them into a single 8–14 page strategy memo with the math sourced and cited line-by-line.
Where the step is today, where it's heading, when to file. PG&E vs. SCE vs. SDG&E budget separately. Equity-resiliency adders where they apply.
The flat 30% post-OBBBA ITC math, ITC basis after SGIP, transferability strategy, and the documentation set the IRS will actually accept.
If your site has digester gas, dairy biogas, or landfill gas, the RFS Renewable Identification Number revenue can rewrite the unit economics.
When to file Rule 21, what export configuration, how to align with the SGIP application window, and what to expect from the PG&E queue.
A representative natural-gas fuel cell project before incentives, after SGIP at the current natural-gas fuel cell step ($2.00/W base), after the 30% federal ITC, and after biogas RIN treatment if the site qualifies. Numbers are illustrative — every site is bespoke.
Three artifacts, one signed memo. Sourced and cited. Ready to file or hand to a tax counterparty.
Plain-English narrative of the filing sequence, the dependencies between credit pools, and the milestones at which each credit becomes claimable. Stripped of jargon, sourced line-by-line.
Base, conservative, and aggressive scenarios with the assumption table called out. SGIP step risk, ITC transferability discount, and RIN price volatility modeled separately.
Exhibits that drop into the SGIP application, the Rule 21 packet, and the tax-credit substantiation file. Cost-basis documentation checklist included.
A pipeline-gas site at a hospital is two weeks. A multi-meter biotech campus with biogas potential and equity-resiliency overlay is closer to six. Pricing reflects scope — quoted in writing before kickoff.
