Projects receive a 6% base rate that can be increased to 30% if they meet Prevailing Wage and Apprenticeships requirements (or exemption). . Passed on July 4, 2025, the legislation largely spares battery energy storage systems (BESS) from the credit reduction that wind and solar projects received. However, BESS developers do need to comply with heightened Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) material assistance requirements compared to. . The federal government provides tax credits for investments in energy sources that generate electricity without emitting carbon dioxide in the process. . The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which became law on August 16, 2022, extends and increases tax credits for wind energy projects that begin construction prior to January 1, 2025. Starting in 2025, the IRA converts energy tax credits into emissions-based, technology-neutral tax credits available. . The Act includes the following significant transition provisions and other changes with respect to energy tax credits: adopts foreign entity of concern (FEOC) rules imposing certain foreign supply chain and ownership restrictions on taxpayers seeking certain tax credits, including ITCs and PTCs. More precisely, the meaning of “single project” for energy tax credit purposes varies across contexts and can lead to disparate outcomes.
