Pete Morgan Discusses Possibilities in C-PACE Financing for Owners with Law360
Winston & Strawn partner Pete Morgan spoke with Law360 to discuss refinancing possibilities for owners in commercial property-assessed clean energy (C-PACE). C-PACE is a financing mechanism that allows building owners to fund clean energy upgrades, energy efficiency improvements and resiliency renovations, recouped via a special assessment on annual property tax bills and then repaid by municipalities to private lenders. Although the financing tool for commercial real estate has been around since 2009, the macroeconomic conditions ushered in by the pandemic have led to a surge of interest in C-PACE.
