Image: President Biden via Twitter. The Inflation Reduction Act’s incentives for energy storage projects in the US came into effect on 1 January 2023. Standout among those measures is the availability of an investment tax credit (ITC) for investment in renewable energy projects being extended to include standalone energy storage facilities.
Energy storage projects (i) not in service prior to Jan. 1, 2022, and (ii) on which construction begins prior to Jan. 29, 2023 (60 days after the IRS issued Notice 2022-61), qualify for the bonus rate regardless of compliance with the prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements.
Most directly relevant to the downstream energy storage industry is the introduction of an investment tax credit (ITC) for standalone energy storage. That can lower the capital cost of equipment by about 30%, although under some prevailing conditions it will be more or less, depending on, for example, use of local unionised labour.
Energy storage projects owned by taxable entities are not eligible for a refundable ITC, but instead can take advantage of the new transferability rules. The IRA added a provision to permit project owners (other than tax-exempt entities) to make an election to transfer the ITC to an unrelated third party.
Specific to energy storage, the act’s changes to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code), have the potential to be a game-changer for the energy storage industry in the United States, in terms of both deployment and equipment manufacture.
