The Future of Distributed Solar
LumaGrid deploys residential solar + storage systems across DFW, delivering §48E tax credits and recurring revenue through a fully managed portfolio of 420 systems.
Solar infrastructure, built for investors
LumaGrid is a solar investment fund managed by Trojan SLR that deploys distributed residential solar photovoltaic systems paired with Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries. We own the systems, manage the portfolio, and pass tax credits plus recurring revenue to our investors.
Our portfolio consists of 250 ten-kilowatt systems and 170 fifteen-kilowatt systems, each paired with Tesla Powerwall 3 storage. Fair market value is independently certified by Baker Tilly using an income approach with market comparables, providing a defensible basis for §48E investment tax credit claims.
Multiple revenue streams, real asset backing
Structured for accredited investors seeking tax-advantaged returns backed by physical solar infrastructure and long-term contracted revenue.
§48E Tax Credits
Investment tax credits based on independently certified fair market value. Available for transfer at 80 cents on the dollar or direct use for investors with tax liability.
Recurring Revenue
Investors receive 30% of monthly client lease payments (MRR) and 30% of Virtual Power Plant revenue, creating dual income streams over a 25-year horizon.
FMV Spread
Portfolio fair market value of $69M against a $30M capital deployment creates substantial value for tax credit calculations, certified by Baker Tilly.
Virtual Power Plant
1,010 Powerwall 3 batteries form a distributed energy network, participating in grid services and demand response programs for additional revenue.
Energy Community
DFW-area deployment positions the portfolio for potential Energy Community bonus credits, adding up to 10% to the base ITC rate under IRA guidelines.
Domestic Content
Systems are designed to meet domestic content requirements, qualifying for additional ITC adders that increase the overall credit value for investors.
From capital to cash flow
A streamlined path from investment to returns, managed end-to-end by Trojan SLR.
Invest
Accredited investors contribute to the LumaGrid fund. Capital is deployed into residential solar + storage systems across the DFW metroplex.
Deploy
420 systems are installed — 250 at 10kW and 170 at 15kW — each paired with Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries. Baker Tilly certifies FMV for tax credit basis.
Earn
Investors receive §48E tax credits in year one. Ongoing returns come from 30% of lease payments and 30% of VPP revenue, with a price reset at year 10.
Maximize your tax advantage
The Inflation Reduction Act created transferable clean energy tax credits. LumaGrid structures these for maximum investor benefit.
Transfer at 80 Cents
Investors without sufficient tax liability can sell their credits to third-party buyers at approximately 80 cents per dollar of credit value, generating immediate cash returns.
Direct Use
Investors with tax appetite can apply credits directly against their federal tax liability, capturing the full face value of the investment tax credit.
FMV-Based Calculation
Credits are calculated on independently certified fair market value — not installation cost — creating a significantly larger credit basis for investors.
IRA Bonus Adders
Energy Community and Domestic Content provisions under the IRA can add up to 20 percentage points to the base ITC rate, substantially increasing total credit value.
