Deductions for Commercial Buildings:
A tax deduction of up to $1.80 per square foot is available

a building that meets ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2001. Partial deductions of up to $.60 per square foot can be taken for measures
affecting any one of three building systems: the building envelope, lighting, or heating and cooling systems. These tax deductions
