The 179D deduction is available for energy-efficient commercial buildings owned by government entities, public institutions, or academic institutions. To qualify, the building owner must provide an allocation letter to the designer or contractor who implemented the energy-efficient improvements. This letter allocates the tax deduction to the designer or contractor, allowing them to benefit from the 179D deduction.
