We recorded a benefit for income taxes of $3,324 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and $10,054 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and $10,552 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The effective tax rate benefit was 24.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the effective tax rate benefit of 93.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The principal reasons for the higher effective rate for 2024 are primarily due to the effects of foreign earnings, a smaller period discrete benefit and lower current year forecast for Section 179D Energy Efficient Building deductions, offset by higher investment tax credits from solar, and storage plants placed into service or are forecasted to be placed into service during 2024.

The effective tax rate benefit was 26.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an effective tax rate benefit of 52.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The principal reasons for the higher effective rate for 2024 are primarily due to the effects of foreign earnings, a smaller period discrete benefit and lower current year forecast for Section 179D Energy Efficient Building deductions, offset by higher investment tax credits from solar, and storage plants placed into service or are forecasted to be placed into service during 2024.
