Welcome to Project Arden! We’re excited to have you on the expert team. This website explains what Arden is aiming to achieve, how each task is structured, the specifications you must follow, and concrete examples. Treat this website as a single source of truth for doing consistent, high‑quality work.
Arden is a training and evaluation program for an AI system that designs tax credit optimization strategies for distributed‑energy projects (residential, commercial, institutional). The model ingests detailed property and project specification inputs and returns technical configurations and compliant financial analyses aligned with applicable incentives and laws.
Your work teaches the model to optimize projects for maximum federal benefit while ensuring full compliance (credits, bonuses, labor rules, documentation). High‑quality expert tasks directly reduce risk, improve ROI predictions, and scale clean‑energy deployment.
We've organized this website so that it gives you all the information you need for your specific workstream as well as a general sense of what the project is trying to do.
Begin by making sure you've completed your onboarding steps. You can find more information on the Onboarding page.
Once you're ready to work on tasks, make your way to either the Tax Expert Hub or the Energy Engineer Hub, depending on what your role is. We've included further instructions on those pages.
We're excited to work with you!
