An order for Polish electricity electricity to exclude solar power plants, when there is too low energy demand, changes in rates at which you can sell energy to the network … Among other things, such problems are measured by those who have focused on solar farms. The solution to these problems is energy magazines that allow it to sell it when the demand for it is the greatest and when it is the most expensive. However, to have a warehouse, you need to put a lot of money on it.
Hitting solar installations with real estate tax
If someone was trying on such an investment, now you will have to think about it well. Why? Because the tax office tightens the tax screw. There were new regulations of the Ministry of Finance regarding real estate tax. The regulations indicate which elements of solar systems will be subject to tribute. Anxiety is felt by both those who have already invested the installation and those who are just trying on it.
Not all tax will pay
In the new regulations, the most important is the distinction between private and commercial installations. Not everyone is covered by real estate tax. The owners of home photovoltaic installations, which remain exempt from the property, have a problem with the owners of home photovoltaic installations. Entrepreneurs and those who run a business will go under the magnifying glass.
Importantly, the panels or electronic systems themselves remain beyond the interest of the tax office. Only structural elements, such as foundations or support structures, are subject to taxation. NEW regulations are clearly defined by taxable buildings, which are included in photovoltaic, wind, nuclear and biogas plants. Therefore, there was a clarification for some unclear regulations.
What may be the consequences of these changes?
Voices are rising that the new regulations will negatively affect the pace of development of commercial photovoltaic farms. Why? Because due to the additional tribute to the Tax Office, some investments will become less profitable. But the other side of this medal is also the legal doubts about private installations have been clarified, maybe now there will be more people willing to install panels.
Another issue is the question about the changes that new regulations can cause in the structure of the energy market itself. According to experts, the burden of commercial taxes gives forums to the development of dispersed prosumer energy. This will be at the expense of large photovoltaic farms. And it is from the circle to result in long -term consequences for the stability of the energy system.
If someone earns, why not pay more
In the opinion of Tomasz Błeszyński, real estate advisor, changes in real estate tax regulations were predictable because the government is looking for investment places to tax. The expert drew attention to this a few months ago in Dziennik Gazeta Prawna. “
– If there was once agricultural land or meadow in a given area, taxation was lower. At the time when we install, for example, solar devices, you have to reckon that the rates will be higher than for wasteland – indicated the expert in Dziennik Gazeta Prawna. ” “The Ministry of Finance has concluded that if someone earns, why not pay more,” Błeszyński indicated. In his opinion, the government is looking for additional money for local budgets, which are very tense, and in some municipalities even under the line.
– Politicians, apart from European funds, do not intend to direct the subsidy to local governments and throw the lifebuoy in the form of collecting property tax. All taxable assets are taken into account, including photovoltaic farms associated with the investment aspect. Therefore, I was not surprised that the Ministry of Finance introduced new real estate tax rates for 2025 – an expert said in the journal.
