Rebates

Property-Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing effectively allows property owners to borrow money to pay for energy improvements. The amount borrowed is typically repaid via a special assessment on the property over a period of years. In 2021, S.B. 147 authorized the creation of a Commercial PACE (C-PACE) program to be administered by the Montana Facility Finance Authority (MFFA). To be eligible, properties must be located in a Montana city, county, town, or a consolidated city-town that has or will establish a C-PACE District. C-PACE District designation is tracked by the MFFA and may be viewed here.

Note:  In 2010, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), which has authority over mortgage underwriters Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, directed these enterprises against purchasing mortgages of homes with a PACE lien due to its senior status above a mortgage. Most residential PACE activity subsided following this directive; however, some residential PACE programs are now operating with loan loss reserve funds, appropriate disclosures, or other protections meant to address FHFA's concerns. Commercial PACE programs were not directly affected by FHFA’s actions, as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac do not underwrite commercial mortgages.
