We’ve been at this for years, and we have expertise that very few firms can claim. Not to mention, we’re friendly, reliable folks who make your business, our business.  [ Talk to an expert ](https://www.concordlp.com/start-the-conversation) ## A bit of history We’ve been at the vanguard of delivering clean energy incentives for over 15 years and our clients have monetized more than a billion in incentives with our support. We have deep, unrivaled expertise in the legal and commercial landscape of clean energy projects and tax incentives. Our founder ran the lobbying coalition that helped to bring the laws around the 179D tax deduction to life and we continue to help shape public policy on transferable tax credits. History is written by the winners; law is written by the leaders. The only question left, then is why hire followers when you can hire leaders?
