Insights
US$103M certified U.S. tax credits materially strengthen NOVONIX’s Riverside project economics.
The certification of US$103 million in Section 48C tax credits for NOVONIX’s Riverside synthetic graphite facility is a significant financial milestone. These credits are tied to placing the first 11,000 tpa of production in service, directly supporting project viability.
The credits can be sold to a third party, potentially converting them into cash and reducing NOVONIX’s funding burden. This support also signals U.S. Government backing for a domestic synthetic graphite supply chain, which aligns with NOVONIX’s Chattanooga-based battery materials platform.
Execution still depends on NOVONIX achieving the required production in service before 7 April 2028. Investors will look to future disclosures on engineering progress, financing arrangements, and ramp-up milestones to understand how quickly the certified credits translate into economic benefit.

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT (ASX: NVX) |
NOVONIX US$103 Million 48C Tax Credits Certified for Synthetic Graphite Facility
Chattanooga, TN (USA), 10 April 2026 - NOVONIX Limited (NASDAQ: NVX, ASX: NVX) (“NOVONIX” or the “Company”), a leading battery materials company, today announced that the U.S. Government has certified its Riverside project in connection with the US$103 million in tax credits previously allocated under the U.S. Government’s Section 48C Advanced Energy Project Credit Program.
“This certification from the Trump administration is the latest vote of confidence in a mission that has always been bigger than politics. I’m proud that building America’s critical mineral supply chain begins right here at home, in Chattanooga, Tennessee.” – U.S. Representative Chuck Fleischmann.
This decision reflects the U.S. government’s confidence in NOVONIX, affirming the Company’s role as an essential partner in establishing a domestic synthetic graphite supply chain that underpins America’s long-term energy and economic security.
“This is another significant milestone for NOVONIX and show of support from the U.S. Government, as we continue to scale our U.S. manufacturing footprint,” said Mike O’Kronley, CEO of NOVONIX. “We are focused on delivering a reliable, domestic supply of high-performance synthetic graphite to support the growing demand for battery materials in North America.”
NOVONIX will receive the US$103 million of tax credits when it places its first 11,000 tpa of production in service, provided that occurs before 7 April 2028. These tax credits can be sold to a third party.
The Company will continue to advance engineering, materials development, and financing activities for the project and will provide updates as key milestones are achieved.
This announcement has been authorized for release by NOVONIX Chairman, Mr. Ron Edmonds.
