Summary

If you make electricity from renewable sources like wind or solar, these new prices and adjustments will affect your credits and potential earnings. This update helps keep the credit fair by matching it to inflation, so producers get the right boost at the right time.

2025 Section 45 Credit Adjustment Published
If you produce electricity from renewable sources (for example, wind or solar), the IRS published the 2025 inflation adjustment factor and reference price that are used to determine availability of the Section 45 production tax credit. These 2025 numbers affect how much tax credit you may receive and therefore can change your potential earnings from renewable electricity production.
