Tax credit for electric yard equipment
This bill would create a new tax credit equal to 40% of the cost of qualifying zero-emission lawn, garden, or landscaping equipment you place in service. The credit would be limited to $25,000 per taxable year and to $100,000 total over any consecutive 10-year period. It would apply to property placed in service after December 31, 2024, with product-identification rules starting for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Gasoline- or diesel-generator-powered tools and manually powered tools would not qualify, and you generally could not claim other tax benefits for the same property (with a narrow depreciation exception for the year placed in service). The bill would allow elective direct payment or transfer of the credit, protect it from recapture in some bankruptcy or dissolution cases, and would expire five years after enactment.
