## Timeline

- **2026-07-04**: Deadline for full renewable energy tax credits — After this date, new projects will no longer qualify for the full 30% ITC or PTC, dramatically increasing the cost of new wind and solar development.
- **2026-06-26**: LevelTen Energy releases analysis showing PPA price spikes — LevelTen reports early data indicating wind and solar contract prices could rise 40–50% nationally, with Texas deals up 120%, warning of a tax credit cliff impact.
- **2026-06**: Solar developers rush to safe-harbor projects before deadline — In the weeks before the cut-off, project owners incur 5% of construction costs to lock in tax credit eligibility, resulting in a massive pipeline of over 200 GW of secured solar capacity.
- **2025**: Trump signs 2025 tax law accelerating phaseout of clean energy credits — The legislation accelerates the expiration of Production Tax Credits (PTC) and Investment Tax Credits (ITC) for renewable energy projects, ending full credits for projects not meeting safe-harbor requirements by July 2026.
