Dwyer Road Solar Project to Benefit 750 Louisiana Families

This 6 MW DC project is on 22 acres of land owned by the Sisters of the Holy Family, the 2nd oldest order of Black Catholic nuns in the country. It will lower the electricity bills of 750 families (mostly low-income) by 20% for at least 20 years. It depends on IRA tax credits or it will not be built. Although the rules haven't changed yet, the uncertainty around them is giving funders pause (since the construction money has to be spent before Direct Pay arrives) and may be enough to kill the project. The project is shovel ready, but on pause because of uncertainty around the credits.
