Treasury Department, IRS Release Final Transferability Rules

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) released final rules today on the transferability provisions included in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Following is a statement from Ray Long, President and CEO of the American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE), on the guidance:

“It is difficult to overstate the significance of today’s announcement for the clean energy market. Transferability is a powerful tool that broadens the reach of clean energy tax credits and expands the supply of available financing for the energy transition.

“The final rules issued by Treasury today will open the door to tens of billions of dollars in additional annual clean energy investments and attract more diverse participants into the market. As our industry continues to scale to meet the nation’s skyrocketing demand for clean electricity, project owners and investors now have the certainty needed to fully leverage this key provision.

“We applaud the Department for releasing this comprehensive guidance and look forward to our ongoing partnership with the agency to achieve regulations that set the stage for America’s clean energy economy.”

Background:
ACORE submitted comments in response to the proposed regulations concerning transferability and direct pay issued by Treasury and the IRS last June, which built from prior individual and joint comments on a range of pertinent issues. ACORE staff has also participated in multiple conversations and roundtables with the Biden administration on the implementation of the IRA.

The Economics of Mass Deportation

Published

The only one in America whose life is improved by mass deportation is Donald Trump.

Ignorant and hateful people (the MAGA base) love the idea of punishing people with brown skin. Yet working class white supremacists actually lose financially, as prices rise due to loss of workers in low-income jobs in agriculture, restauranting, childcare, landscaping, construction, hospitality, etc.

The American Dream

Published

Remarkably, there are still Americans who buy into the concept promoted at left.  Most people have figured out that:

The greed of corporations and billionaires has usurped our lawmaking processes and made it extremely difficult for the working class to live any decent kind of life.

Rule of law is a joke in the United States.

The final days of free market capitalism are upon us, leaving the common American more depressed and desperate than in any past age.

Universal HealthCare? Don’t Hold Your Breath

As the United States continues its slide into corporatocracy and oligarchy, the concept of universal healthcare becomes ever more unlikely.

As the midterms approach, we need to brace ourselves for the onslaught of messaging from the GOP to the effect that Trump is the only force separating America from communism.  This, believe it or not, is a concept warmly embraced by tens of millions of hateful idiots.

The rest of the developed world deems healthcare to be a human right, like potable water.  We counter: Bull****.  Corporate profitability is the supreme right here.
