OPAL Fuels Announces Agreement for $11.1 Million Sale of IRA Investment Tax Credits

OPAL Fuels Inc. (Nasdaq: OPAL), a vertically integrated leader in the capture and conversion of biogas into low carbon intensity renewable natural gas (“RNG”) and renewable power, today announced the sale of approximately $11.1 million of Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) investment tax credits to a subsidiary of Apollo Global Management, Inc., a leading provider of alternative asset management and retirement solutions. This sale represents OPAL Fuels’ stake in the investment tax credits generated by the Emerald RNG facility, a joint venture that is 50% owned by OPAL Fuels.

The Inflation Reduction Act, signed into law in August 2022, provides for the issuance of transferable federal income tax credits for certain renewable fuel projects and products. The sale is OPAL Fuels’ first IRA tax credit transaction.

“The sale of IRA tax credits provides OPAL Fuels another source of liquidity to continue funding our strategic growth initiatives,” said Jonathan Maurer, Co-Chief Executive Officer of OPAL Fuels. “We view the IRA as favorable for the renewable energy industry and an important driver of investment across our project pipeline over the next several years.”

“With nameplate capacity of 10,000 scfm, the Emerald RNG facility is one of the largest landfill RNG facilities in North America. Today’s tax credit sale helps spur investment in these important assets going forward capturing naturally occurring biogas and combating climate change through decarbonization of heavy-duty trucking fleets,” continued Maurer.
