AI Summary

  • Amends Arizona Revised Statutes section 42-14155 to change how renewable energy equipment is valued for tax purposes through December 31, 2040.

  • Changes the valuation methodology from "valuation" to "full cash value," defined as 20 percent of the depreciated cost of the equipment.

  • Establishes that depreciated cost is determined by deducting straight-line depreciation (capped at 90 percent of adjusted original cost) from the original cost of the equipment.

  • Requires separate valuation of land on which renewable energy equipment is sited, using either section 42-14156 standards if owned by the taxpayer or county assessor determination if the land is not owned by the taxpayer.

  • Defines key terms including "depreciation," "original cost," "renewable energy equipment" (solar, wind, and other non-petroleum sources), and "taxable original cost" (reduced by investment tax credits, production tax credits, or cash grants).
