The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) cuts energy-related tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The IRA introduced many financial incentives like the Production Tax Credit (45Y) and the Investment Tax Credit (48E). These credits were designed to support clean energy development through at least 2032, drive more than $400 billion in investments, and create hundreds of thousands of future jobs nationwide.
The OBBBA will curtail these tax credits by cutting eligibility windows and limiting project support. The OBBBA has a 60-day construction start requirement and will end support for projects not in service after the end of 2027. These requirements jeopardize many projects currently in planning or early development stages.
Using REMI E3+ and REMI-AI, we will compare the projected environmental and economic impacts of these changes across the country. By comparing states, this analysis will provide insight into how OBBBA-driven tax credit rollbacks may affect economic growth, energy affordability, emissions reductions, and regional competitiveness differently across diverse energy markets.
