FAQ
Q: What would be a good wind site?
A: Most of Kansas is good, and some parts are even better. See the wind map at www.nrel.gov for specific wind maps. You need to have an open space, preferably high where the wind turbine can be placed at least 20 feet above any obstruction (buildings and trees) within 250 feet.
Q: Where can I see one?
A: There are many around, but one is at the Walton Grade School, another at the Pretty Prairie School, and one north of Hillsboro, if you want to see some in action. Contact us for customer references.
Q: What does the stimulus package mean to me?
A: The entire cost of a Skystream 3.7 system installed is reduced by 30 percent provided you have a tax liability over the course of two years. Depending on whether this is a business expense that you could deduct or depreciate, you could save even more! Learn more at http://www.skystreamenergy.com/incentives or ask your tax consultant.
Q: How does a tax credit work?
A: Typically, a tax credit is money that you can deduct from any money owed to the federal government at tax time (tax liability). The small wind tax credit can be carried over two years after the product is installed. For more information on how to take advantage of the credit, we suggest that you speak to a tax specialist.
Q: I don’t normally owe taxes – how can I claim the credit?
A: You can only claim the credit based on what you would owe in taxes (your tax liability after two years.) If you do not normally receive a refund, you may want to consult with a tax attorney to understand better what opportunities are available to you.
Q: How do I claim the credit?
A: You will be required to file the long form and itemize your deductions. The IRS form 5695 must be completed and filed with your taxes. The current form does not reflect the changes to the most recent legislation.
But most of all it is a responsible and visible way to invest for yourself and the environment.
