The AES Corporation (NYSE:AES), together with its subsidiaries, operates as a power generation and utility company in the United States and internationally.

The AES Corporation (NYSE:AES) suffered a setback this week after a Senate panel proposed phasing out solar and wind tax credits by 2028, as part of changes to President Donald Trump’s ‘One, Big, Beautiful Bill’. While this is expected to deal a significant blow to AES, the company should be able to make it through, as only 52% of its deployed power assets were dedicated to renewables, with the remainder divided between natural gas and coal.

Moreover, around 23% of the company’s total renewables portfolio is composed of hydropower, whose tax credits will remain in the Senate bill until beginning their phaseout in 2033 through 2036.
