The Advanced Power Alliance (APA) is committed to ensuring that America’s energy future remains secure, affordable, and reliable. That’s why we’re calling on key congressional leaders to prioritize energy security, economic development, and technological competitiveness as they consider tax reforms that will impact our nation’s energy industry.
We addressed this letter to United States Senators Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee; Senator Ron Wyden (D-Oregon), Ranking Member of the Senate Finance Committee: United States Representative Jason Smith (R-Missouri), Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee; and United States Representative Richard Neal, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee. In the letter, APA emphasizes the importance of a tax code that supports all forms of domestic energy production—an approach we call “More of Everything.” This strategy ensures that every state, whether rich in fossil fuels, wind, or solar resources, has the opportunity to contribute to and benefit from America’s growing energy economy.

What’s at Stake? As demand for electricity soars—expected to grow by 20% by 2030—due to the expansion of data centers, industrial electrification, and manufacturing reshoring, it is critical that we maximize all available energy resources to maintain affordability and reliability.
The tax incentives currently in place have already helped lower electricity costs, drive investment, and create good-paying American jobs in clean energy and advanced power technologies. These incentives are not corporate giveaways; they are economic tools that reduce power prices for consumers and support long-term energy contracts that keep businesses competitive.
Key Messages in Our Letter to Congress
- Energy Abundance & Security – America must utilize all domestic energy resources to meet rising demand and maintain a resilient power grid.
- Economic Growth & Jobs – The clean energy sector is creating jobs, strengthening communities, and supporting domestic manufacturing.
- Lower Costs for Consumers – Tax incentives help keep energy affordable, benefiting both families and industries that rely on predictable electricity prices.
- Fair & Balanced Energy Policy – Every state should have the opportunity to participate in the energy economy, whether through solar, wind, fossil fuels, or storage technologies.
- Global Competitiveness – Access to low-cost, low-emission energy is crucial for American manufacturers to remain competitive on the international stage.
We are calling on Congress to take a balanced approach to tax reform—one that maintains incentives for all forms of energy production and storage. Removing these incentives would disrupt power markets, increase electricity costs, and jeopardize thousands of jobs in the energy sector.
At this critical moment for America’s energy future, and we will continue to advocate for policies that support growth, innovation, and prosperity for all. Join us in urging Congress to protect these essential energy tax policies! Stay informed and engaged by continuing to follow APA’s work at PowerAlliance.org.
