Validate Your 45Q Revenue Plan with a Data Expert
If your company is planning to claim the 45Q tax credit for carbon capture, it’s critical to start building your 45Q compliance playbook now—because waiting until the first IRS filing in 2030 is too late.
The reality is: your reporting obligations start long before that filing. As soon as construction begins—potentially as early as 2026—you need to be collecting and archiving specific compliance data. One often-overlooked example? The daily ratio of apprentices to journey workers. This detail may seem small, but it’s required under prevailing wage rules and will be a part of the documentation needed to support your 45Q claim.
Many companies miss these foundational steps simply because they don’t assign responsibility early or lack a system of record to track the right data. That’s where I can help.
I’ve developed a 45Q compliance playbook that outlines exactly what to track, who should track it, and how to do it consistently. I’ll walk you through how to fill it in, assign tasks within your team, and implement a system of record that stands up to IRS scrutiny.
I’m currently helping the most technologically advanced natural gas producer in the country implement this very process.
With the right plan in place today, you can protect your future tax credits—and avoid costly compliance failures later.
Let’s make sure your 45Q credit doesn’t slip through the cracks. Contact me.
