Certainty for Our Energy Future Act

The Certainty for Our Energy Future Act ends tax credits for new wind and solar energy projects that begin construction after December 31, 2030, effective January 1, 2026. It also denies clean energy tax benefits to companies controlled by governments of China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea. The bill uses existing IRS guidelines to define when construction begins for projects, avoiding new bureaucratic rules. Treasury must issue implementation guidance within 180 days, with country-related restrictions taking effect 180 days after that guidance is published.
