BILLING CODE 4830–01–P
DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Internal Revenue Service
Credit for Renewable Electricity
Production, Refined Coal Production,
and Indian Coal Production, and
Publication of Inflation Adjustment
Factors and Reference Prices for
Calendar Year 2020
Internal Revenue Service (IRS),
Treasury.
ACTION: Publication of inflation
adjustment factors and reference prices
for calendar year 2020 under sections
45(e)(2)(A) (26 U.S.C. 45(e)(2)(A)),
45(e)(8)(C) (26 U.S.C. 45(e)(8)(C)), and
AGENCY:
PO 00000
Frm 00100
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
45(e)(10)(B) (26 U.S.C. 45(e)(10)(B)) of
the Internal Revenue Code.
The 2020 inflation adjustment
factors and reference prices are used in
determining the availability of the credit
for renewable electricity production,
refined coal production, and Indian coal
production under section 45.
DATES: The 2020 inflation adjustment
factors and reference prices apply to
calendar year 2020 sales of kilowatt
hours of electricity produced in the
United States or a possession thereof
from qualified energy resources, and to
2020 sales of refined coal and Indian
coal produced in the United States or a
possession thereof.
Inflation Adjustment Factors: The
inflation adjustment factor for calendar
year 2020 for qualified energy resources
and refined coal is 1.6687. The inflation
adjustment factor for calendar year 2020
for Indian coal is 1.2851.
Reference Prices: The reference price
for calendar year 2020 for facilities
producing electricity from wind is 4.16
cents per kilowatt hour. The reference
prices for fuel used as feedstock within
the meaning of section 45(c)(7)(A)
(relating to refined coal production) are
$31.90 per ton for calendar year 2002
and $48.58 per ton for calendar year
2020. The reference prices for facilities
producing electricity from closed-loop
biomass, open-loop biomass, geothermal
energy, municipal solid waste, qualified
hydropower production, and marine
and hydrokinetic renewable energy have
not been determined for calendar year
2020.
Phaseout Calculation: Because the
2020 reference price for electricity
produced from wind (4.16 cents per
kilowatt hour) does not exceed 8 cents
multiplied by the inflation adjustment
factor (1.6687), the phaseout of the
credit provided in section 45(b)(1) does
not apply to such electricity sold during
calendar year 2020. Because the 2020
reference price of fuel used as feedstock
for refined coal ($48.58) does not exceed
$90.49 (which is the $31.90 reference
price of such fuel in 2002 multiplied by
the inflation adjustment factor (1.6687)
and 1.7), the phaseout of the credit
provided in section 45(e)(8)(B) does not
apply to refined coal sold during
calendar year 2020. Further, for
electricity produced from closed-loop
biomass, open-loop biomass, geothermal
energy, municipal solid waste, qualified
hydropower production, and marine
and hydrokinetic renewable energy, the
phaseout of the credit provided in
section 45(b)(1) does not apply to such
electricity sold during calendar year
2020.
