any taxable year, there shall be allowed as a credit against the tax 
imposed by this chapter for the taxable year an amount equal to the sum 
of the credits determined under subsection (b) with respect to such 
dates.
    ``(b) Amount of Credit.--
            ``(1) In general.--The amount of the credit determined 
        under this subsection with respect to any credit allowance date

        determined with respect to such bond.
            ``(2) Annual credit.--The annual credit determined with 
        respect to any clean coal energy bond is the product of--
                    ``(A) the credit rate determined by the Secretary 
                under paragraph (3) for the day on which such bond was

        respect to any clean coal energy bond, the Secretary shall 
        determine daily or cause to be determined daily a credit rate 
        which shall apply to the first day on which there is a binding, 
        written contract for the sale or exchange of the bond. The 
        credit rate for any day is the credit rate which the Secretary 
        or the Secretary's designee estimates will permit the issuance 
        of clean coal energy bonds with a specified maturity or 
        redemption date without discount and without interest cost to 
        the qualified issuer.
            ``(4) Credit allowance date.--For purposes of this section, 
        the term `credit allowance date' means--

        case of a bond which is issued during the 3-month period ending 
        on a credit allowance date, the amount of the credit determined 
        under this subsection with respect to such credit allowance 
        date shall be a ratable portion of the credit otherwise 
        determined based on the portion of the 3-month period during 
        which the bond is outstanding. A similar rule shall apply when 
        the bond is redeemed or matures.

subsection (a) for any taxable year shall not exceed the excess of--
            ``(1) the sum of the regular tax liability (as defined in 
        section 26(b)) plus the tax imposed by section 55, over

                taken (including conditions to taking such remedial 
                actions) to prevent an action described in the

        which the Secretary estimates will result in the present value 
        of the obligation to repay the principal on the bond being 
        equal to 50 percent of the face amount of such bond. Such 
        present value shall be determined without regard to the 
        requirements of subsection (l)(5) and using as a discount rate 
        the average annual interest rate of tax of tax-exempt 
        obligations having a term of 10 years or more which are issued

amount equal to the sum of the credits determined under subsection (b) 
with respect to such dates.
    ``(b) Amount of Credit.--
            ``(1) In general.--The amount of the credit determined 
        under this subsection with respect to any credit allowance date

        a credit rate which shall apply to the first day on which there 
        is a binding, written contract for the sale or exchange of the 
        bond. The credit rate for any day is the credit rate which the 
        Secretary or the Secretary's designee estimates will permit the 
        issuance of electric transmission property bonds with a 
        specified maturity or redemption date without discount and 
        without interest cost to the qualified issuer.

        the term `credit allowance date' means--
                    ``(A) March 15,

    ``Such term also includes the last day on which the bond is 
outstanding.

        case of a bond which is issued during the 3-month period ending 
        on a credit allowance date, the amount of the credit determined 
        under this subsection with respect to such credit allowance 
        date shall be a ratable portion of the credit otherwise 
        determined based on the portion of the 3-month period during 
        which the bond is outstanding. A similar rule shall apply when 
        the bond is redeemed or matures.

                taken (including conditions to taking such remedial 
                actions) to prevent an action described in the

        paragraph (2) with respect to such bond.
            ``(2) Maximum term.--During each calendar month, the 
        Secretary shall determine the maximum term permitted under this 
        paragraph for bonds issued during the following calendar month. 
        Such maximum term shall be the greater of 15 years or the term 
        which the Secretary estimates will result in the present value 
        of the obligation to repay the principal on the bond being 
        equal to 50 percent of the face amount of such bond. Such 
        present value shall be determined without regard to the 
        requirements of subsection (l)(6) and using as a discount rate 
        the average annual interest rate of tax of tax-exempt 
        obligations having a term of 10 years or more which are issued 
        during the month. If the term as so determined is not a 
        multiple of a whole year, such term shall be rounded to the 
        next highest whole year.
