Green Jobs Tax Credit
The state offers a corporate or income tax credit for qualified capital infrastructure projects in Louisiana that are directly related to industries including but not limited to the energy efficient and advanced drivetrain vehicle industry and the biofuels industry. The tax credit is for 10% to 25% of the project costs, calculated based on the investment costs, up to $1 million per state-certified green project. The portion of the base investment expended on payroll for Louisiana residents employed in connection with the construction of the project may be eligible for an additional 10% tax credit on the payroll. Restrictions may apply. (Reference Louisiana Revised Statutes 47:6037)
