Lowering Electric Bills Act

United States119th CongressS-2681Senate
Updated: Aug 2, 2025

Summary

This legislation, known as the "Lowering Electric Bills Act," aims to significantly extend and modify key clean energy tax credits within the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Its primary objective is to promote continued investment in renewable energy and reduce household electricity costs by prolonging financial incentives. Specifically, the bill extends the residential clean energy credit , allowing homeowners to claim it for installations through December 31, 2034, a nine-year extension from its previous expiration. Furthermore, it revises the termination criteria for both the clean electricity production credit and the clean electricity investment credit . These credits will now remain available until the later of two conditions: when U.S. electricity production greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to 25% or less of 2022 levels, or the year 2032, effectively removing previous fixed sunset dates.
