What it does
The Carbon Resource Innovation Act would expand the existing carbon oxide sequestration tax credit under Section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code to include solid or liquid carbon capture facilities, allowing them to qualify for the credit if they capture and verify at least 1,000 metric tons of qualified carbon oxide annually. The bill defines such facilities as those using carbon capture equipment to prevent carbon from being released into the atmosphere, with credit amounts based on measured and verified carbon captured at the point of disposal, injection, or utilization. These changes would apply to carbon captured after the date of enactment.
