Project:
A hospital in New York used the 179D tax deduction to fund a number of energy efficiency improvements at its hospitals. NTG’s team began by conducting the required energy simulation to verify the deduction. They then communicated with building owners to explain the deduction and obtain all required documentation. They also worked with qualified engineers and contractors to complete inspections and testing. Finally, NTG provided tax consulting to verify the deductions and oversee the tax filing process.

Energy efficiency improvements:
The improvements included:

• Installing new windows and insulation
• Replacing the heating and cooling systems
• Installing LED lighting
• Upgrading the hospitals’ energy management system

179D tax deduction:
The hospitals estimate that they will save over $10 million on energy costs as a result of these improvements. 

NTG’s success in this area is due to their understanding of complex construction and design projects. The team performs a high degree of due diligence and works with a variety of government authorities to expedite the approval process. This ensures that their clients receive the maximum possible benefit from the 179D program.

If you are a hospital considering energy efficiency improvements, you should talk to our team about the 179D tax deduction. The deduction can help you to make your hospital more sustainable and save money on energy costs.
