The API that wrangles IRA dollars.
Big Picture
With the IRA, the pots of government climate cash have never been bigger. Trouble is, there are a lot of pots. The trillions in federal, state, local, and utility incentives make it easier and cheaper to adopt clean technology, especially when you stack the incentives. But navigating the maze of incentives–and figuring out how to stack and maximize them–is a huge barrier. A lot of money gets left on the table.
How It Works
Eli’s digital tools make getting IRA cash easy for consumers. Before Eli, the third-party admins who manage the incentives had to manually search thousands of programs before they could even offer any incentives. Eli automates all that. Their API calculates the ideal incentive stack for any given decarb purchase or project. So admins can get the ideal mix of fed, state, and local incentives into the market, as they process the rebates effortlessly.
Unfair Advantage
Eli not only streamlines incentives for climate projects, they help finance them, too. Every rebate that Eli’s API processes provides tons of data that improve Eli’s underwriting, making projects more affordable and electrification more attractive to consumers. With a team well versed in past climate incentive programs, no one is better equipped to get government money flowing to consumers.
