Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty championed efforts with a bipartisan group of legislators to restore the investment tax credit for fuel cells, recognizing the importance of parity with other clean energy technologies. Joining with other members of the Connecticut delegation, she helped to ensure that the Department of Energy received the necessary funding to further carbon capture research and development, such as that being undertaken by FuelCell Energy. The Congresswoman recognizes and supports the value that fuel cells bring to Connecticut’s environment goals, energy security and economic policies-through high tech manufacturing jobs, tax revenue, product exports, clean power, grid resiliency and reliability in an industry that Connecticut can proudly claim as its own. American fuel cell manufacturing provides efficient, affordable and clean solutions for the supply, recovery and storage of energy.
“The extension of the Investment Tax Credit for fuel cells brings long overdue parity to the fuel cell industry,” said Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty. “Fuel cell technology delivers two of our highest priorities – clean energy and manufacturing jobs.”
“We thank Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty for visiting our facility, meeting with our employees and touring our recently expanded manufacturing plant,” said Jennifer D. Arasimowicz, Esq., Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, FuelCell Energy, Inc. “We appreciate her support for policies that promote fuel cells, and especially for the restoration of the Investment Tax Credit.”
