The Production Tax Credit (PTC) and the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) are currently set to phase down and it is unclear how wind and PV deployment will be impacted by the phase down. This work draws from 14 scenarios of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's 2018 Standard Scenarios Report and 32 scenarios from the Energy Information Administration's Annual Energy Outlook 2018 to explore wind and PV deployment following the tax credit expiration.
