Anne Loomis, a partner in Troutman Pepper Locke’s Energy Industry Group, was quoted in the August 20, 2025 PV Magazine article, “Turbulent Times for US Energy Storage.”

  • The OBBBA’s changes to domestic content and FEOC regulations are set to shake up supply chains. Anne Loomis, a partner at law firm Troutman Pepper Locke, warned the new rules could “change the nature of the storage supply chain completely” as developers scramble to source eligible components.
  • From a tax credit standpoint, the future is uncertain. Loomis expressed concerns about a return to short-term extensions and legal ambiguity. Before the US Inflation Reduction Act was introduced, tax credits operated on shorter time horizons and required regular congressional renewals.
  • “It’s highly likely the industry will return to needing extensions from Congress,” Loomis said.
  • Loomis’ advice for how to handle the coming months? Get moving. “Learn what’s already been done, what works and what doesn’t,” she said. “The developers who will come out ahead are the ones who adapt quickly in what they build and how they structure their deals.”
