犹他州风能、太阳能项目仍享受退税

    盐湖城 - 犹他州周四宣布，国家能源计划仍为可再生能源系统提供资金。

    使用阳光伏能供热系统和光伏发电系统的居民可享受退税。使用小风能发电或光伏发电系统的企业也可享受退税。

    州能源计划发布的新闻称，该方案可支付专业安装系统成本的25%，并与其他州，联邦和公用事业的鼓励方案同时生效。

    自该方案于4月19日推出起，已有270多项申请获批准，预计产生电力超过180万千瓦小时。而典型的家庭每月耗电量为850千瓦小时。

    SALT LAKE CITY ― The Utah State Energy Program announced Thursday that funds are still available for renewable energy systems.

    Homeowners can reserve tax rebates for solar thermal or photovoltaic energy systems. Businesses can reserve the rebates for small wind or photovoltaic systems.

    The program can cover up to 25 percent of the cost of a professionally installed system and may be used with other state, federal and utility incentives, according to a news release from the state energy program.

    Since the program launched on April 19, more than 275 applications have been approved and are expected to generate more than 1.8 million kilowatt hours of electricity, according to the release. A typical household consumes 850 kilowatt hours per month.
