Provides credit under corporation business tax and gross income tax for construction of buildings in accordance with certain energy and environmental performance standards.
This bill creates tax credits for businesses constructing new buildings in New Jersey that meet specific environmental standards. It provides credits against corporation business tax and gross income tax for buildings certified at LEED Silver, Gold, or Platinum levels (based on energy efficiency, water use, and sustainable materials). Eligible buildings include large residential complexes (10,000+ sq ft) or commercial/industrial structures, with credit amounts tied to building size and certification level. To claim the credit, businesses must obtain certification from the Environmental Protection Commissioner and comply with annual reporting requirements, subject to a $10 million annual cap on total credits.
