Summary
This bill amends the Income Tax Act to change the sunset date of the Solar Market Development Tax Credit from December 31, 2016 to December 31, 2020.
A possible benefit of this bill might be a continuing incentive for the purchase and installation of solar
thermal and photovoltaic systems in New Mexico homes, businesses and agricultural enterprises.
The HWMC amendment of March 19, 2015 effectively extends the credit through the end of 2024 at annually declining percentages of the purchase and installation costs of the system. The percentage starts at 10% and decreases to 5% in the last year of the credit.
