July 01, 2016

The tax credits under discussion are the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for mainly solar projects and the Production Tax Credit (PTC) for wind projects. See 26 U.S.C. ' 48. While section 48 covers utility-scale, commercial and residential-sized projects, 26 U.S.C 25(D) covers residential-sized projects.
