Logistics Centers Case study
Logistics Centers
Business: A large logistics company with over 100 warehouses nationwide.
Location: A new logistics center in a major metropolitan area.
Energy-efficient upgrades: 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. The warehouse installed a number of energy-efficient upgrades, including LED lighting, high-efficiency HVAC systems, and a solar panel system. The warehouse was able to claim a $5 million 179D deduction for the energy-efficient upgrades.
Benefits: The 179D deduction saved the warehouse $5 million in taxes. The warehouse also expects to save $200,000 per year on energy costs. The 179D tax deduction can be a significant financial benefit for businesses that invest in energy-efficient upgrades. In this case study, the logistics company was able to save $5 million in taxes and $200,000 per year on energy costs. This is a great example of how the 179D deduction can help businesses reduce their environmental impact and save money.
Benefits of the 179D tax deduction for logistics centers:
Reduce operating costs:
Energy-efficient upgrades can help logistics centers reduce their operating costs by lowering energy bills.

- High-efficiency HVAC systems: High-efficiency HVAC systems can save up to 30% on energy costs.
- Solar panel systems: Solar panel systems can generate electricity from the sun, reducing the need for
grid power. - Cooling towers: Cooling towers can help to reduce the energy consumption of HVAC systems by
cooling the air before it enters the system. - Energy management systems: Energy management systems can help to optimize the energy usage
of a logistics center by monitoring and controlling energy consumption.
These are just a few examples of the many energy-efficient upgrades that can be made to logistics centers. By investing in these upgrades, logistics companies can save money on taxes and energy costs, reduce operating costs, improve efficiency, increase productivity, and attract and retain customers.
