On Dec. 31, 2016, the 30 percent residential and 10 percent commercial federal tax credits for geothermal heat pumps expired while credits for solar and wind were extended.

HR 1090 — The Technologies for Energy Security Act of 2017 — introduced by Rep. Tom Reed, R-N.Y., would correct a congressional oversight in late-2015 that extended tax credits for solar and wind but left behind “orphaned” technologies, like geothermal heat pumps, fuel cells, microturbines, small wind, and combined heat and power (CHP) when their credits expired Jan. 1 of this year. The Reed bill currently boasts 108 cosponsors, 59 of which are Republicans.
