Description
Taxpayers who own and place into service carbon capture equipment may be eligible to claim the section 45Q credit. This credit is meant to incentivize investment in carbon capture and usage and storage/sequestration projects (CCUS projects). Although the credit has been in existence since 2008, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 amended the credit to further incentivize investment in these sorts of projects. Here is a look at a few of the new incentives:
Larger credit amount.
12-year claim period instead of the 75 million metric ton cap in place before 2018.
Allowing the credit for CO2 utilization in addition to enhanced oil recovery and for direct air capture.
Smaller facilities can be eligible (minimum eligibility thresholds reduced).
Permitting owners of carbon capture equipment to claim tax credits instead of the person capturing the CO2.
Join us to discuss section 45Q eligibility, claim process, credit amounts, and more.
