Income tax for wind and photovoltaic power generation

6 FAQs about [Income tax for wind and photovoltaic power generation]

What are the tax implications of a wind turbine installation?

In particular the number of planned installations of wind turbines has increased considerably. But what are the tax implications of such an installation? Where the wind turbine is not part of a domestic installation, then the income from the turbine will be taxable.

Do I have to pay income tax if I generate electricity?

Where the generation tariff is received by an individual, other than in a business capacity, and it is not chargeable as miscellaneous income, no Income Tax liability will arise. This will usually be the case where an individual generates electricity mainly for use in their own home.

Are domestic electricity installations tax-free?

Given that broadly, a standard size installation may contribute only up to half of a family’s annual electricity requirement, it is expected that the vast majority of domestic installations will enjoy tax-free income.

What are the tax rules for electricity installation?

There are two different sets of tax rules, depending principally on whether the installation is domestic or commercial. The contract documentation will state the type of installation. A domestic installation is normally mounted on the farmhouse roof (occasionally in the garden) and provides electricity solely to the dwelling.

Is a generation tariff liable for income tax?

A generation tariff received in a private capacity, which is not chargeable as miscellaneous income, will not be liable to Income Tax but the reduced cost of electricity should be reflected in the cost of electricity attributed to business use. An export tariff is payable for electricity exported to the wider energy market.

How does the electricity tax exemption work?

The exemption requires that the amount generated is primarily intended to match the amount consumed in the domestic premises; not that most of the electricity is consumed in those premises. So as long as the installation doesn’t generate far more electricity than is used in the home overall, the income should still be tax-free.
