KPMG International’s Taxes and Incentives for Renewable Energy – 2011 Edition 

Many governments today are turning to significant tax relief programs to promote renewable energy sources for power generation. In fact, at least 83 countries now have some type of policy to encourage renewable power generation, ranging from tax credits and grants to accelerated depreciation.

To help you stay up-to-date on new developments in this increasingly important area of the energy sector, KPMG International presents its latest edition of Taxes and Incentives for Renewable Energy. 

This year’s edition, compiled by KPMG’s Global Energy & Natural Resources tax practice, includes discussions of recent policy developments in the world’s top five renewable energy producing countries: China, the US, Germany, Spain, and Brazil.

Taxes and Incentives for Renewable Energy also provides you with an overview of specific investment and operating support schemes available in each of these countries, along with 11 other countries, including the Netherlands. Local country programs outlined in the report involve energy generation from wind, solar, biomass, biofuels, geothermal and hydropower sources, as well as increased energy efficiencies, smart-grid technologies, carbon capture and storage technologies.
