Hydro Fares Well in ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’
After months of intense advocacy, hydro fares well in the signed-into-law One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Tax credits (and elective pay for public power) for both rehabilitating existing hydro and building new conventional hydro and pumped storage are now available through 2033. These tax credits give hydro asset owners and developers critical financial incentives to move forward with ensuring baseload power is available to meet America's electricity needs. In short, the industry’s unified voice delivered critical results.
