Renewable energy has taken center stage in the global push for sustainability, and tax credits have emerged as crucial tools to drive the adoption of cleaner technologies. Amish Shaw, a seasoned expert in tax law, takes us through the nuances of the 45Q tax credit, shedding light on its evolving guidelines and the exciting inclusion of utilization in the equation.
