Case Study: E-Fuels Facility

Developing the Texas Incentive Strategy
Scimemi LLC used its Texas incentive expertise to help the client evaluate the potential benefits of locating the facility in Texas as part of a broader site selection process. To quantify the tax burden and incentive advantages, we built a suite of Excel-based models analyzing property tax, sales and use tax, and franchise tax, which could be integrated directly into the client’s internal financial models.

Using our expertise in data-modeling applications, we also developed a comprehensive incentives model and an interactive Tableau dashboard that illustrated the multi-year impact of different project facts and incentive structures. This allowed decision-makers to model various project scenarios and understand how changes in scope, scale, and timing would affect both taxes and available incentives — ultimately helping to shape the client’s incentive strategy for the Texas location.

Our Role and Impact
Scimemi LLC made Texas taxes and incentives understandable and quantifiable. We created interactive, user-friendly models and dashboards that non-tax stakeholders could easily interpret. Beyond incentive modeling, we provided strategic advice on incentive strategy and timing, as well as ongoing consulting support on franchise, property, and sales and use tax issues, helping the client refine its internal models and analyses.
