Current report
On July 4, 2025, federal tax legislation was enacted. Among other changes, the federal tax legislation phases out, repeals, and/or adds stricter eligibility requirements for business tax credits and incentives for the development of clean energy facilities and production of clean energy, including wind, solar and BESS facilities. Among other things, (i) wind and solar facilities that begin construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 in order to qualify for production tax credits or investment tax credits, (ii) BESS facilities that begin construction by December 31, 2033 receive full investment tax credit value, stepping down to 75% for BESS facilities that begin construction in 2034, 50% for BESS facilities that begin construction in 2035 and 0% for BESS facilities that begin construction after 2035 and (iii) for facilities that begin construction after 2024, new foreign entity of concern requirements will restrict availability of the credits to wind, solar and BESS facilities if the entity that owns the facility has certain relationships with or makes certain payments to foreign entities of concern and, for facilities that begin construction after 2025, if the percentage of components in the facility manufactured by foreign entities of concern exceeds a specified percentage.
Current report
On July 7, 2025, a federal executive order was issued directing the Secretary of the Treasury to issue, within 45 days, new and revised guidance that could potentially seek to limit the interpretation of “begin construction” requirements for wind, solar and BESS facilities that claim “technology neutral” tax credits under sections 45Y or 48E of the Internal Revenue Code. Facilities that began construction before 2025 qualify for tax credits under section 45 and 48 of the Internal Revenue Code and so are not within the scope of the executive order. Similarly, the executive order does not impact operating facilities, so the facilities owned and operated by the Company are not within the scope of the executive order. The Company will continue to assess the impact of any such guidance under the executive order when it is issued.

The Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities for income tax returns filed in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. All tax returns filed by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and forward remain subject to audit. As of December 31, 2024, the U.S. federal partnership returns of three of the Company’s subsidiaries are under audit by the IRS. The IRS has issued proposed adjustments with respect to one of the subsidiaries under audit. The Company believes that such proposed adjustments are without merit and in any case would not impact the Company’s tax liability or the tax liability of such subsidiary. The IRS has not yet issued any proposed adjustments with respect to the other two subsidiaries under audit. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of each of these audits will not be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity, and thus no material provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. The outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty and if any issues addressed in tax audits of the Company are resolved in a manner inconsistent with its expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.
