“Inflation Reduction Act: Navigating the Murky Waters of Compliance and Incentives”
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has many owners and engineering and construction firms scratching their heads as they attempt to navigate the murky and often turbulent waters of compliance to win the bid, manage risk, and understand the available project incentives. Our panel of industry leaders and tax compliance experts dive into this new tax regime to explain what matters to you.

Shawn Daray, Associate, Jones Walker LLP

Shawn counsels businesses, project developers, community development entities (CDEs), and other nonprofit organizations on the full range of federal tax issues. He has particular experience advising clients on current, industry-specific economic development tax credit opportunities, including new market tax credits; historic rehabilitation tax credits; offshore wind, solar, and other renewable energy tax credits; and carbon sequestration tax credits; among other federal incentives.
Shawn’s clients include upstream, midstream, and downstream oil, gas, and energy companies; manufacturers, retailers, and other energy end users across numerous industries; and participants in public-private partnerships and infrastructure projects. Well versed in the technologies — such as blue and green hydrogen — that are currently the focus of federal incentives, Shawn also recognizes that many of these targeted programs are time-limited. With this in mind, he helps clients develop effective strategies to maximize these opportunities before they expire.
