## Summary

**Market-triggered clean energy tax credits** shift when and how several clean energy tax credits apply by tying eligibility to electricity price or demand changes instead of fixed sunset dates. A price or demand increase year is when national average electricity prices to customers rise more than 2 percent year over year or when annual electricity sales to customers exceed the prior year. - Homeowners: The energy-efficient home improvement credit and the residential clean energy credit can be renewed after a market trigger, but those renewals do not apply to property placed in service in the first two calendar years after the trigger. - Developers and investors: Production and investment credits move from fixed sunsets to a market-triggered schedule. The bill sets the credits’ applicable year as the later of six years after a trigger or the year 2032, giving projects a longer planning horizon. - Leasing arrangements: It removes prior rules that denied credits for wind and solar leases, allowing many leasing deals to qualify for the production and investment credits.
