Carbon Oxide Sequestration Credit:
Taxpayers may claim a tax credit for the capture and transport of carbon dioxide from an industrial source for use in enhanced oil recovery or for permanent storage in a geologic formation. For capture equipment placed in service before 9 February 2018 the credit was $20 per metric ton of qualified carbon dioxide that is captured by the taxpayer at a qualified facility and disposed of in secure geological storage. The credit is $10 per metric ton of qualified carbon dioxide that is captured by the taxpayer at a qualified facility, used as a tertiary injectant in a qualified enhanced oil or natural gas recovery project and disposed of in secure geologic storage. The credit was adjusted annually for inflation. The credit applied with respect to qualified carbon dioxide before the end of the calendar year in which 75 million metric tons of qualified carbon dioxide had been captured or disposed of or used as a tertiary injectant. This credit was authorized in section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code by the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. As amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, taxpayers may claim a credit over a 12-year period for the capture of carbon oxide for eligible carbon capture equipment originally place in service on or after 9 February 2018 and before 1 January 2024. The credit is $12.83 per metric ton in 2017 and increases annually to $35 per metric ton in 2026 for carbon oxide that is captured by the taxpayer at a qualified facility, used as a tertiary injectant in a qualified enhanced oil or natural gas recovery project and disposed of in a secure geologic storage. The credit is $22.66 per metric ton in 2017 and increases annually to $50 per metric ton in 2026 for carbon oxide that is captured by the taxpayer at a qualified facility and disposed of in secure geological storage. |
