The Treasury Department finalized rules for a major clean energy tax cut Wednesday.

“The Inflation Reduction Act has given clean energy project developers clarity and certainty to undertake major investments and produce new clean power to meet growing electricity demand,” Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo said in a statement. “Today’s announcement will help lower consumers’ utility bills, strengthen U.S. energy security, and create good-paying jobs.”
