ITC Rates and Labor Requirements

The prevailing Clean Technology ITC rate is 30% for equipment acquired and available for use between March 28, 2023, and December 31, 2033. To secure the maximum 30% rate instead of the baseline 20%, businesses must satisfy specific federal labor conditions.

ITC Tier	Credit Rate	Labor & Apprenticeship Requirements
Maximum Rate	30%	Must pay prevailing union wages to workers and ensure at least 10% of total tradesperson hours are performed by registered apprentices.
Standard Rate	20%	Fails to meet the prevailing wage or apprenticeship requirements during the installation of the clean tech property.
Phase-Out Rate	15%	Applies to eligible property acquired and available for use in the 2034 calendar year.

(Note: E-2 Solutions employs certified journeypersons and registered apprentices, helping your project align with federal labor requirements for the 30% tier).

Clean Technology ITC — FAQs

Can I claim both the Clean Tech ITC and CCA?

Yes. You can claim both the Clean Technology ITC and Capital Cost Allowance on the same equipment. However, the capital cost must be reduced by the ITC amount claimed before calculating your CCA deduction.

Is the Clean Technology ITC refundable?

Yes — fully refundable. If the tax credit amount exceeds your corporation’s income tax liability, the Canada Revenue Agency will issue a cash refund for the remaining balance.

Who is eligible for the Clean Tech ITC?

Only taxable Canadian corporations are eligible. Sole proprietorships and partnerships are excluded, though certain partnerships with corporate members may allocate the credit proportionally.

Can I stack the ITC with Alberta provincial incentives?

Yes. The Clean Technology ITC can be combined with Alberta programs such as the Municipal Electricity Generation (MEG) Program and the Accelerated CCA deduction under Classes 43.1/43.2, maximizing your total return.
