This bill would raise the production tax credit for electrode active materials from 10% to 25%. It would expand the definition to include precursor materials and solid-state electrolytes. Examples listed include cobalt sulfate, lithium hydroxide, silicon, graphite pitch, and lithium carbonate. It would also treat silicon used in anodes as an applicable critical mineral. Components would be ineligible if they contain applicable critical minerals produced after December 31, 2026 by a prohibited foreign entity. The bill would delay phase-out years for most applicable minerals from 2030–2033 to 2041–2044. All changes would apply to components produced and sold after December 31, 2026.
