A taxpayer must submit, for each qualifying advanced energy project: (1) a concept paper for Department of Energy (DOE) consideration and (2) a § 48C(e) application (consisting of (i) an application for DOE recommendation and (ii) an application for § 48C(e) certification). To be eligible to claim any § 48C credits allocated to a project under the § 48C(e) program, a taxpayer must also provide to DOE (1) evidence establishing that a project satisfies the certification requirements specified in Notice 2023-18 and (2) a notification that the project has been placed in service.
