FEDERAL BIOMASS TAX CREDITS

2011: Get a $300 Tax Credit for Choosing Energy Independence

On December 17, 2010, President Obama signed into law a tax package that extends a series of tax credits geared toward boosting the economy. Included in this package was the extension of a tax credit for biomass heating appliances that was set to expire on December 31st. However, Congress did decrease the benefit to consumers that was in place from 2009-2010 and added further restrictions. The new tax credit provides a 10% credit for the purchase of a qualifying biomass heating appliance in 2011, capped at $300, and applies to purchase price only - it is not extended to installation.

By extending this tax credit, Congress signals its support of the renewable fuel industry and for Americans who seek to heat with biomass fuel.

Qualifying ENERGY KING solid-fuel heating appliances are:

• ENERGY KING 385EK Wood Furnace with Automatic Draft
• ENERGY KING Bay 2000C Freestanding Woodstoves
• ENERGY KING Bay 2000C Fireplace Inserts
• ENERGY KING Silhouette 2850C Zero-Clearance Wood Fireplace

To claim your tax credit:
After purchasing a qualifying ENERGY KING solid-fuel heating appliance, simply download and print the 2011 Official Manufacturer's Certificate, which indicates that your new ENERGY KING heating appliance qualifies for the tax credit. Consult your tax advisor to determine whether you qualify for any potential tax credits, and for proper filing of any credits for which you qualify. You need not submit your certificate when you file your income tax return, however the IRS requires you to keep the certificate with your personal tax records.
