The IRS’ Hourly Time-Matching Provision – A Prescient Boon or A Stymieing Bane?

In December 2023, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) – the tax authority in the U.S. under the U.S. Department of Treasury – provided guidance on the three main criteria governing eligibility of green H2 to IRA incentives, namely:

  1. Incrementality, also known as additionality
  2. Time-matching, also known as temporal correlation, and
  3. Deliverability, also known as geographic correlation

Among the announced rules, perhaps the most controversial is the requirement for hourly time-matching between renewable power generation and green H2 production.
