Ending Tax Credits for Offshore Wind Facilities in US Waters.

This bill aims to eliminate tax credits for offshore wind facilities located in the inland navigable waters or coastal waters of the United States. This means new projects in these specific locations will no longer receive financial support through production tax credits or investment tax credits. This could impact energy costs and the development of renewable energy in these regions.
Key points
Tax Credit Discontinuation: Offshore wind facilities built in US inland navigable or coastal waters after December 31, 2025, will no longer qualify for production tax credits or investment tax credits.
Potential Impact on Energy Costs: The removal of these credits may increase the cost of building and operating such facilities, potentially leading to higher energy prices for consumers or slowing down wind project development in these areas.
Shift in Support Policy: The bill alters the framework for supporting renewable energy, potentially shifting focus to other types of projects or locations.
