Foreign Entity of Concern Guidance: Outlook on New IRS Rules for Solar Interconnection ITC

In July 2025, President Trump signed the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act into law, ushering in the biggest legislative changes to solar, storage and manufacturing tax credits since 2022’s Inflation Reduction Act. Among the most consequential impacts of the new FEOC rules—recently detailed in interim IRS guidance issued in February 2026—is the potential for the interconnection Investment Tax Credit (ITC) to become significantly more difficult for solar developers to claim.

SEIA’s legislative and regulatory teams have been at the forefront of FEOC and ITC developments in Washington, where they have been intimately involved in the drafting of legislative and regulatory text to develop workable and efficient rules for the domestic solar and storage industry. Join SEIA’s in-house experts, Nexamp, Roselle LLP, and Novogradac & Company LLP to learn more about how the new FEOC rules could impact the interconnection ITC for solar projects, how taxpayers and other stakeholders can navigate the uncertainty, and what to expect as FEOC policy continues to evolve.
