Vice President, Investment and Production Tax Credits

Job Description

Job Description

Lead the structuring, monetization, and risk management of federal investment tax credits (ITCs) and production tax credits (PTCs) across CIG’s utility-scale solar, storage, and domestic-manufacturing portfolio.

Sitting at the intersection of CIG’s renewable-development and capital-markets businesses, this role owns the ITC-versus-PTC election strategy and the tax-equity and credit-transfer execution that materially improve project economics and accelerates the company’s 3+ GW pipeline in the post-Inflation Reduction Act market.

As a key player in the team, you’ll have opportunities to grow and be promoted, with supportive leadership and recognition from the owners.

What you’ll do

Structure and execute tax-equity and tax-credit-transfer transactions (IRA §6418 transferability) for utility-scale solar, solar-plus-storage, and standalone storage, maximizing ITC and PTC value across partnership-flip, sale-leaseback, inverted-lease, and PTC-streaming structures.

Set the ITC-versus-PTC election strategy by project (capital intensity, capacity factor, adder eligibility), and lead quantification of credit value — basis determination and eligible-cost segregation (ITC), output-based credit streaming (PTC), energy-community and domestic-content adders, and prevailing- wage/apprenticeship compliance that unlock the full credit rate.

Own project- and portfolio-level tax-equity models for both ITC and PTC structures (after-tax IRRs, flip dates, PTC streaming, deficit-restoration obligations, 704(b) capital accounts, hypothetical-liquidation/HLBV) and reconcile them to sponsor and investor return targets.

What you’ll need

Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, economics, or a related field; JD, CPA, or MBA strongly preferred.

10+ years in renewable-energy tax equity, project finance, or transactional tax, with demonstrable lead execution on both ITC and PTC / tax-equity transactions.

Deep command of the Internal Revenue Code as applied to energy credits — §48/§48E ITC, §45/§45Y PTC, §6418 transferability, §6417 elective (direct) pay, and §50 recapture — and of partnership tax (Subchapter K).
