Repeal Decarbonization Tax Credits Administration Fund
Summary
Colorado bill HB26-1362 proposes to repeal the decarbonization tax credits administration cash fund effective July 1, 2027. The bill would eliminate the fund used by the Department of Revenue and the Colorado Energy Office to pay for direct and indirect costs of implementing and administering decarbonization tax credits. The bill takes effect only if companion bill HB26-1405 also becomes law, which transfers the fund's unexpended balance to the general fund.
