Tax Equity Structuring Support for Solar Projects
Helping Developers Access Strategic Tax Equity Partnerships
At Unicorn Solar, we support solar project developers and EPC firms by connecting them with reputable tax equity investors who can help bring their projects to financial close. Our role as a broker is to streamline introductions, ensure investment alignment, and support early-stage coordination—so your project can secure the federal incentives it qualifies for.
What is Solar Tax Equity?
Tax equity is a financing structure in which investors provide upfront capital in exchange for federal incentives, such as:
- Investment Tax Credit (ITC)
- Accelerated depreciation (MACRS)
This arrangement enables solar developers to lower the capital burden of their project by monetizing these benefits through third-party tax equity investors.
Our Role in Tax Equity Structuring
Unicorn Solar does not offer direct financing. Instead, we act as a sourcing partner to connect you with vetted tax equity investors who:
- Understand renewable energy markets
- Have experience with solar tax equity investments
- Can engage with utility-scale or commercial project portfolios
We help align the right financial entities with the right solar projects—accelerating progress to NTP and COD.

Investor Introductions
Connect with tax equity funds and financial institutions that specialize in solar ITC and renewable energy investments.
Preliminary Project Review
We help position your project for tax equity suitability by reviewing key metrics investors look for (cost basis, PPA terms, COD timeline, sponsor experience).
ITC Monetization Strategy
Facilitate connections for structuring transactions that take full advantage of the Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC), including the latest updates under the Inflation Reduction Act.

We help ensure early alignment among developers, investors, and legal counsel to facilitate smooth due diligence and contract development.
Ideal for:
