In Indiana, systems that generate energy using solar, wind, hydropower or geothermal resources -- including geothermal heat pumps -- are exempt from property tax.
(The definition of "solar" is restricted to active solar systems used for heating or cooling.) The exemption is allowed every year that a qualifying system functions. Significantly, the entire renewable energy system and affiliated equipment that is unique to the system, including equipment for storage and distribution, are exempt from property tax.
The exemption applies to both real property and mobile homes equipped with renewable energy systems and may only be claimed by property owners.
- Property owners that wish to claim this deduction must fill out Form 18865 and file it with the local county auditor.
