This comes after the House signed the bill earlier this week which extends the §179D Tax Deduction and §45L Tax Credit retroactively for projects (purchased, new construction and renovations) placed in service 12/31/2020.
Baseline requirements for the qualification of §179D Tax Deduction will remain ASHRAE 90.1-2007
For buildings which do not meet the 50% savings, the tax provision also allows for partially qualifying system:
$0.60/SF for HVAC systems meeting 15% savings
$0.60/SF for Lighting systems meeting 25% savings
$0.60/SF for Building Envelope systems meeting 10% savings
Tax payers no longer have to amend the return for 179D with the Revenue Procedure 2011-14, which allows taxpayers to claim this deduction back to 1/1/2006 without filing amended returns, instead file a Form 3115 (Change in Accounting Method) and will take the entire “catch up” deduction on the return that is being filed.
Ideal candidates for 179D deductions are newly constructed buildings and renovation projects with at least 20,000 sf.
• The vast majority of new construction (and many energy efficient redos) will qualify or partially qualify for 179D just by meeting today’s stricter building code requirements.
• The three subsystems potentially eligible for this lucrative incentive are the building envelope; HVAC/hot water systems; and interior lighting systems.
