Clean tech

There are some clean technology related tax credits and funding programs to potentially benefit ILI. As such, the Clean Tech ITC is intended to “encourage investment of capital in the adoption and operation of clean technology property in Canada” such as wind and solar equipment, along with the “carbon capture, utilization, and storage investment tax credit,” and there is even a “clean electricity investment tax credit,” the “clean technology manufacturing tax credit,” and the “clean hydrogen investment tax credit.”

The Clean Tech ITC is a refundable investment tax credit of up to 30% of the capital cost of “clean technology property” acquired by taxable Canadian corporations. In order to qualify for the Clean Tech ITC, clean technology property must be new equipment that is situated in Canada and intended for use exclusively in Canada. The Clean Tech ITC is available in respect of clean technology property acquired on or after March 28, 2023.
