Maddy summaryThis bill changes how New York property taxes are calculated for solar and wind energy systems. It requires tax assessors to include community benefit payments, decommissioning costs, and solar management expenses as deductible costs when valuing these systems. Crucially, it also specifies that federal tax credits and renewable energy credits (like those for clean energy production) must be treated as intangible assets - not counted as income - when determining a system's taxable value. This directly affects property owners with solar/wind installations and local assessors who calculate their taxes under the new rules. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
