Provides for a tax abatement for electric energy storage equipment
This bill provides a tax abatement for owners of electric energy storage equipment (like batteries) placed in service between January 1, 2027, and January 1, 2029. It allows a tax reduction equal to 10% of eligible equipment costs, capped at $62,500 per year, for up to the compliance period.

It directly affects businesses and property owners investing in grid-stabilizing energy storage systems during this specific two-year window.
