Incentives
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (H.R. 1) allows taxpayers eligible for the federal renewable electricity production tax credit (PTC) to take the federal business energy investment tax credit (ITC).
For Small Wind Turbines the credit is equal to 30% of expenditures, with no maximum credit for small wind turbines placed in service after December 31, 2008. Eligible small wind property includes wind turbines up to 100 kW in capacity.
Under the Modified Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS) businesses may recover investments in small wind through accelerated depreciation deductions.
Secure your cost of electricity. As fuel and energy prices go up, your savings through wind power will be even greater.
Reduce dependence on foreign fuels. Installing a Windspire is a move towards energy independence. Yours and Ours...
Reduce your carbon footprint, a measure of the amount of carbon dioxide you emit through the use of fossil fuels.
Invest in a system to take with you. Because it can be lowered and disassembled as easily as it went up, the Windspire is an asset that can be taken with you when you move.
