COMMERCIAL PROPERTY ASSESSED CLEAN ENERGY AND RESILIENCY (C-PACER)

The Office of the Metropolitan Trustee is the administrator of this program. Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy and Resiliency (C-PACER) is a financing approach that allows owners of commercial properties to seek long-term financing from private lenders for clean energy and resiliency improvements. Participating property owners repay the financing through voluntary special assessments placed on their properties, which are billed and collected as part of their annual property tax bills and then remitted to the private lender. Eligible improvements include measures that support energy efficiency, renewable energy generation, water conservation, and strengthening facilities from incurring physical damage. C-PACER does not affect the tax bills of property owners not participating in the program.
