The Senate Finance Committee recently released its own draft of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (the Bill) previously passed by the House as H.R. 1.

The reconciliation process is far from over, and there are further revisions expected to the text, but the Senate Finance Committee is the final committee in the Senate expected to release legislative text related to energy tax credits.

Its version of the bill includes the following provisions.
