Representative Claudia Tenney from New York has introduced the Technology for Energy Security Act, a bipartisan bill that seeks to extend federal tax credits for fuel cells and linear generators for an additional eight years. The legislation aims to support domestic energy production, enhance grid reliability, and maintain the U.S.'s leadership in emerging energy technologies. By amending the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to prolong the investment tax credit (ITC) under section 48, which has incentivized fuel cell development, the bill aims to ensure a smoother transition to hydrogen and fuel cell adoption while safeguarding cutting-edge technology from Chinese control. Tenney emphasized that diversifying energy sources is crucial for increasing energy independence. The bill has received bipartisan support, with Representatives Mike Carey, Jimmy Panetta, and John Larson as cosponsors, highlighting the importance of strengthening domestic energy production and investing in clean, reliable power sources. If passed, the extension could offer financial stability to companies investing in hydrogen and fuel cell technology, allowing for the further integration of these energy solutions into the U.S. grid.
