📄 Podcast Description:
This week on The Tax Credit Talk, hosts Hallie James and Parker An unpack a wide-ranging episode covering everything from Hollywood productions to nuclear power to child care expansion and how these programs reveal the high stakes of tax credit design.

🎥 In film, North Carolina is investing $29 million in grants, backing productions like Top Chef and MrBeast’s new show, expected to create 3,800 jobs and generate $131 million in economic activity. But New York’s $920 million program is under fire, with watchdogs saying taxpayers get just $1 back for every $3 spent.

In energy, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” accelerates phaseouts for solar and wind credits, setting off a race to finish projects before deadlines hit. Residential solar incentives vanish in 2025, and overall installations could plunge 41% after 2027 just as demand is forecast to surge 16% by 2029. Meanwhile, nuclear receives long-term support with credits extending through 2033, though stricter supplier rules raise new compliance hurdles.

🏘️ In communities, the CDFI Fund’s $10 billion NMTC allocation moves closer with fresh guidance, promising transformative capital for underserved areas. And in Montgomery County, Maryland, property tax credits for child care providers jump from $3,000 to $10,000, aiming to stabilize an industry critical to both families and workforce participation.

🧩 Inside the episode:

  • North Carolina Film Grants Fuel Jobs, Tourism
  • New York Film Subsidies Face Growing Scrutiny
