Moment Energy First BESS Maker to Win Verified FEOC Compliance

Austin, Texas – – September 13, 2026 -- Moment Energy has become the first battery energy storage system (BESS) provider in North America to secure third-party verified non-Prohibited Foreign Entity (non-PFE) status and full Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) compliance, the company announced. A Top 10 U.S. law firm conducted the independent review, examining Moment Energy's corporate ownership, effective control and debt financing structure.

Independent legal review confirms compliance status ahead of tightening federal rules

The verification arrives as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has significantly raised FEOC and PFE requirements for companies seeking federal Investment Tax Credits (ITC). The U.S. Treasury has issued interim guidance through Notice 2026-15 to help taxpayers interpret the new rules, with further clarification expected as implementation proceeds.

Dr. Susanne Johna, chairwoman of the Marburger Bund, told the committee that better integration of ambulatory and hospital-based emergency structures is needed so patients reach the appropriate care point reliably. She cautioned, however, that the current draft contains provisions that could create new operational problems in practice.
