A coalition of clean energy trade groups is launching a lobbying blitz to convince the Senate to save billions of dollars in incentives set to be gutted by House-passed legislation.

The American Clean Power Association is targeting moderate Republicans who have balked at the House’s cuts to a host of lucrative tax credits as well as staff of the Senate’s tax writing committee, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be named because the information is private.
