SWECS qualifications criteria for state tax incentive program

OSTI ID:5195269
Alternative energy systems will play a significant role in providing energy supplies to the United States; estimates range from 7 to 23 percent of the nation's needs by 2000. Small Wind Energy Conversion Systems (SWECS) together with large wind turbine generators will supply a portion of these energy supplies. The level of disbursed SWECS contribution will depend not only on resolving technical problems but the resolution of institutional issues as well. One of the major institutional barriers is the high initial cost of SWECS compared to conventional energy costs. State and federal financial incentive programs such as income tax deductions and credits can promote public acceptance of SWECS. Several prototype qualification documents are being prepared by the Rockwell International Wind Systems Program at Rocky Flats, Colorado (under contract to the Department of Energy) to guide the states in formulating their own specific set of criteria that would be most appropriate for their own situation.
