What tax credits are available for energy storage projects?
Commercial/Grid-scale There is also a investment tax credit for larger energy storage projects. The Section 48 Investment Tax Credit offers businesses a similar 30% base tax credit for energy storage systems under 1 MW, or over 1 MW if certain apprenticeship and wage requirements are met.
How has the energy storage industry progressed in 2024 & 2025?
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).
What is the base tax credit for energy projects?
• For projects beginning construction on or after Jan. 29, 2023 or where the maximum net output is 1 MW or greater, the base tax credit is 6% of the taxpayer’s basis in the energy property or qualified facility (or energy storage technology).
What is a tax payer's basis in a thermal energy storage property?
The final regulations further provide that a “taxpayer’s basis in the thermal energy storage property includes the total cost of the thermal energy storage property and HVAC system less the cost of an HVAC system without thermal storage capacity that would meet the same functional heating or cooling needs.”
