“Over the past 3 years, ETS has performed Energy Tax Certification for over a dozen of our firm's projects. As a result, we have been able to generate over a million dollars in tax deductions for the firm. The staff at ETS has been knowledgeable and helpful, taking the time to explain and guide us through the process. I would highly recommend them for 179D certification needs. We will use them again on our next study” Gina Bastianon of Frick, Frick, and Jette Architects
