Alternative Fuel Production Tax Credits

The Enterprise Zone Program and the High Quality Jobs Program offer state tax incentives to business projects for the production of biomass or alternative fuels. Depending on the program, incentives may include: an investment tax credit equal to a percentage of the qualifying investment, amortized over five years; a refund of state sales, service, or use taxes paid to contractors or subcontractors during construction; a doubling of the state's refundable research activities credit; additional funding for training new employees; and a local property tax exemption of up to 100% of the value added to the property.
