Bill Description

AN ACT relating to the tax on production of energy from wind resources; repealing the three (3) year tax exemption on wind energy production; specifying applicability; and providing for an effective date.

Notes

HB252 might be one of the shortest bills in the Wyoming legislature this session, but it packs a punch by eliminating one of the  green energy subsidies the taxpayers of Wyoming have been paying the wind turbine industry.

Here's the entire bill:

Section 1.  W.S. 39‑22‑105(b) is repealed.

Section 2.  The three (3) year tax exemption provided in W.S. 39‑22‑105(b), repealed by section 1 of this act, shall apply in accordance with the terms of that repealed subsection to any wind turbine that first produced electricity for sale before the effective date of this act.

Section 3.  This act is effective immediately upon completion of all acts necessary for a bill to become law as provided by Article 4, Section 8 of the Wyoming Constitution.
