From 2025, all imports of wind turbines will be subject to an 11.2% import tax.
Reducing property taxes may be particularly important stimulus for capital-intensive technologies such as wind power generation and conversion of solar energy into electricity. After all, property taxes often lead to a higher tax burden on kWh of energy produced for capital-intensive power generation technologies from alternative sources than
The Energy Regulation Board (ERB) and Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) hereby notify the public of the following changes in procedures for importing solar equipment: To promote the importation of solar equipment, importers are no longer required to get a one-off waiver from ERB to import solar equipment for domestic or non-commercial use

Washington also provides a sales tax exemption for solar energy system machinery and equipment under specific criteria. States generally treat electricity as tangible personal property for sales tax purposes and thus may provide for manufacturing exemptions.
Florida, for example, provides an exemption for solar energy systems, and New York provides a specific sales and use tax exemption for solar modules and panels. Washington also provides a sales tax exemption for solar energy system machinery and equipment under specific criteria.
A solar PV property that commenced construction in 2023 is eligible for a 30% ITC, so when the tax basis is $1,000,000, the 30% ITC reduces tax liability by $300,000. In the example, the business uses accelerated depreciation to determine what amount of depreciation it will deduct each year from 2025 to 2030.
To qualify for the credit, the financial benefits of the solar facility must be allocated equitably between the residents. The 1.8 GW program cap will be allocated to projects by the IRS, which can carry over any unused annual allocation for three years.
