EV Tax Credit Breakdown

The discussion highlights the two main components of the EV tax credit: battery components and strategic minerals. Starting requirements dictate that 40% of strategic minerals must come from the US or free trade partners, increasing annually to 80%, while battery components must be manufactured in North America, beginning at 50% and rising to 100%. Additionally, new guidance clarifies that processed materials like lithium hydroxide can count toward strategic mineral requirements if sourced from free trade partners.
