Commercial wind facilities smaller than 5 MW remain eligible for a separate wind energy property tax assessment method under South Dakota law. Small Commercial Wind Energy Property Tax Assessment In May 2003 South Dakota passed legislation defining a revised property tax assessment method for commcercial wind energy facilities. Originally, this method applied to all commercial wind energy facilities regardless of their size. However, in March 2008 HB 1320 exempted commercial wind facilities larger than 5 MW from all property taxes in favor of an alternative taxing structure. Thus the special property tax assessment listed here is now only applicable to commercial wind facilities with an aggregate capacity of less than 5 MW. The two special rules that now apply to such facilities are as follows: 1. The property value assessment does not include the wind turbine or blades (these are considered personal property). The assessed property value only takes the base, foundation, tower, and substations into account. 2. Wind energy companies are not subject to discretionary property tax formulas. All commercial wind facilities covered under this law, regardless of ownership, are assessed at the local level. Prior to the 2003 legislation, some facilities were centrally assessed for tax purposes at the state level. WISCONSIN Solar and Wind Energy Equipment Exemption – Bundestaat Wisconsin In Wisconsin, any value added by a solar-energy system or a wind-energy system is exempt from general property taxes. A solar-energy system is defined as "equipment which directly converts and then transfers or stores solar energy into usable forms of thermal or electrical energy, but does not include equipment or components that would be present as part of a conventional energy system or a system that operates without mechanical means." A wind-energy system is defined as "equipment which converts and then transfers or stores energy from the wind into usable forms of energy, but does not include equipment or components that would be present as part of a conventional energy system." Passive solar design elements do not qualify under these rules. The exemption applies regardless of whether the equipment is deemed real property or personal property. Focus on Energy - Renewable Energy Grant Programs – Bundestaat Wisconsin Wisconsin Focus on Energy offers several grant programs to support the development of renewable energy projects and industry infrastructure. Individual grant programs are intended to offer support in specific areas of the renewable energy market to help 49
implement projects that otherwise would not be completed, or to complete projects sooner than scheduled. The Business & Marketing Grants provide financial support for developing business skills and marketing materials for organizations and businesses that provide renewable-energy services. Grant recipients and projects must be located in a participating utility's service territory. The program website above contains an interactive tool to assist people in determining their eligibility for different programs. Grants will be awarded to assist renewable-energy businesses and organizations in developing business plans, gaining market recognition, understanding their market better, training employees, gaining certification and other related activities. The current application lists PV, solar water heating, customer-owned wind, and non-residential biomass combustion systems that produce electricity or thermal energy as eligible technologies. Grants under this designation will not be issued for the purpose of purchasing renewable energy equipment or for research and development activities. Up to 50% of project costs will be funded, with a maximum grant of $10,000. Focus on Energy also imposes a $500,000 limit on the amount of incentives that an individual or business can receive from the program per fiscal year. 2.0 Aktuelle Bauprojekte Während des letzten Jahrzehnts war die Windenergie die am schnellsten wachsende Industrie im Energiebereich weltweit mit hohen Wachstumsraten. Die augenblickliche Produktionskapazität aller Windkraftanlagen in den USA liegt bei 25,170 MW jährlich. Es ist anzumerken, dass alle sich im Bau befindenden oder geplanten Projekte vorrangig auf dem Festland (onshore) sind. Projekte auf offener See (offshore) sind derzeit in den USA ein eher zu vernachlässigender Bereich, jedoch wird erwartet, dass diesem Bereich über die nächsten Jahre eine größere Aufmerksamkeit beigemessen wird. Die Entwicklung von Windenergieprojekten war und ist in den Great Plains und im Mittleren Westen besonders stark, was auf das große Windpotential in dieser Gegend zurückzuführen ist. Weitere Faktoren für das Wachstum sind die staatlich festgelegten Anteile von Windenergie bei der Nutzung, die sinkenden Kosten für Windenergie und die Förderungen von Windenergie gegenüber der herkömmlichen Energie. Die kapazitätsmäßig größten Projekte wurden in den letzten Jahren in Texas (6 Projekte), Colorado (1 Projekt) und Illinois (1 Projekt) verwirklicht. Derzeit investieren Firmen Millionen von USD in die Entwicklung und den Bau von Windkraftanlagen. Zahlreiche Windenergieanlagen sind gerade im Entstehen, die in den nächsten Monaten fertig gestellt werden sollen. Die durchschnittliche Projektgröße liegt momentan bei 70 MW.
