The energy storage industry has continued to progress over the course of 2024 and into 2025, buoyed in significant part by the federal income tax benefits in the form of tax credits enacted under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA).
Of particular importance to the energy storage industry, the government has released final regulatory guidance for the ITC (both Section 48 and 48E of the Code), prevailing wage and apprenticeship (PWA) requirements, and transferability and direct payment, as well as other guidance on the energy community and domestic content tax credit “adders.”
