Amend Title To Conform
Whereas, energy, like any basic need, is an absolute necessity for individuals, businesses, and government; and
Whereas, energy costs have a profound impact on South Carolina's economy, affecting households, businesses, healthcare, public institutions, and government; and
Whereas, South Carolinians spend more than eighteen billion dollars a year on energy with a majority of these expenditures leaving the State's economy because South Carolina produces no coal, oil, or natural gas; and
Whereas, biomass fuels can create over twelve thousand permanent jobs in South Carolina, with revenues to the local economy of over one billion dollars each year; and
Whereas, biomass energy resources can produce over 1.7 billion dollars in construction investments and seventeen thousand construction jobs over the next fifteen years; and
Whereas, the development of biomass energy resources will open new markets for South Carolina farmers and forest product producers and new opportunities for entrepreneurs; and
Whereas, a high proportion of the new jobs and additional income resulting from biomass energy will go to economically depressed rural areas of the State; and
Whereas, all petroleum fuels consumed in South Carolina come from out of state, primarily through two pipelines originating in the hurricane-prone coastal areas of Louisiana and Texas; and
Whereas, two-thirds of all oil consumed in America is imported from foreign countries and most oil reserves are in troublesome areas for the United States, such as the Middle East, Russia, West Africa, and Venezuela; and
Whereas, environmental effects of energy use have a major impact on the quality of our natural resources, the quality of human life, and the ability of the State to attract and retain both industrial and service-related jobs; and
Whereas, biomass fuels can reduce the production of air pollutants including carbon dioxide which causes climate change; nitrogen oxide, which is known to create smog; sulfur oxides, which contribute to acid rain; particulate matter, which can cause health problems such as asthma, lung cancer, and cardiovascular disease; and mercury, a toxic substance that may cause fetal development problems; and
Whereas, it is critical to address economic, security, and environmental concerns created by current energy use patterns, and it is in the State's best interest to adopt a comprehensive set of recommendations to support and encourage biomass fuel development and utilization. Now, therefore,
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. A. Title 12 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:
Section 12-63-10. This chapter may be cited as the 'Energy Freedom and Rural Development Act'.
Section 12-63-20. (A)(1) A sales tax rebate must be applied to a vehicle purchase beginning after June 30, 2007, and ending before July 1, 2010, as follows:
(a) three hundred dollars for an in-state purchase or lease of a Flex-Fuel Vehicle (FFV), which is capable of operating on E85 motor fuel. An eligible vehicle for each model year is a model identified by the manufacturer as being a flexible-fuel vehicle capable of operating on E85 motor fuel. E85 motor fuel is a fuel comprised of eighty-five percent ethanol fuel and fifteen percent gasoline fuel;
(b) three hundred dollars for an in-state purchase or lease of a hydrogen-fueled vehicle and an advanced lean-burn vehicle. A hydrogen-fueled vehicle and an advanced lean-burn vehicle is a vehicle classified by the United States Department of Energy as a hydrogen-fueled vehicle or lean-burn vehicle;
(c) three hundred dollars for an in-state purchase or lease of a hybrid vehicle, an electric vehicle, and a plug-in hybrid vehicle. A hybrid vehicle is defined as a hybrid gasoline-electric vehicle that is partially powered by a large on-board battery. An electric vehicle is defined as having at least three wheels, uses a large on-board battery or electrical storage device, and is rated for more than thirty-five miles per hour and approved for use by the United States Department of Transportation for use on United States Highways (excludes neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs)). A plug-in hybrid vehicle is a vehicle classified by the United States Department of Energy as a hybrid vehicle capable of being propelled by both a gasoline-fueled internal combustion engine and an electric motor powered by a battery that can be recharged by being plugged into an external source of electricity;
(d) three hundred dollars for the in-state purchase or lease of a high fuel-economy vehicle with a city fuel-economy rating by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of thirty miles a gallon or higher; and
(e) not more than five hundred dollars for the purchase of equipment for conversion of a conventional hybrid electric vehicle to a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle or for the in-state purchase of EPA-certified equipment for conversion of conventional vehicles to operate on propane, compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas, hydrogen, or E85 (eighty-five percent ethanol and fifteen percent gasoline).
(2) The rebates allowed pursuant to this subsection must be in the form of a payment sent to the buyer upon completion of a form created by the Department of Revenue and made available to the public, dealers, and the Department of Motor Vehicles.
(B)(1) An incentive payment for an alternative fuel purchase is provided beginning after June 30, 2007, and ending before July 1, 2010, and shall be provided from the General Fund, excluding revenue derived from the sales and use tax as follows:
(a) five cents to the retailer for each gallon of E70 fuel or greater sold provided that the ethanol-based fuel is subject to the South Carolina motor fuel user fee;
(b) twenty-five cents to the retailer for each gallon of pure biodiesel fuel sold so that the biodiesel in the blend is at least two percent B2 or greater, provided that the qualified biodiesel content fuel is subject to the South Carolina motor fuel user fee. Biodiesel fuel is a fuel for motor vehicle diesel engines comprised of vegetable oils or animal fats and meeting the specifications of the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) D 6751; and
(c) twenty-five cents to the retailer or wholesaler for each gallon of pure biodiesel fuel sold as dyed diesel fuel for 'off-road' uses, so that the biodiesel in the blend is at least two percent B2 or greater.
(2) The payments allowed pursuant to this subsection must be made to the retailer upon compliance with verification procedures set forth by the Department of Agriculture.
(C)(1) An incentive payment for production of electricity or methane gas fuel is provided beginning after June 30, 2007, and ending before July 1, 2017, and shall be provided from the General Fund, excluding revenue derived from the sales and use tax as follows:
(a) One cent per kilowatt-hour (kwh) for electricity produced from biomass resources in a facility not using biomass resources before June 30, 2007, or facilities which produce at least twenty-five percent more electricity from biomass resources than the greatest three-year average before June 30, 2007, up to a maximum of one hundred thousand dollars per year per taxpayer for five years. The rebate is applicable to energy from a qualifying facility placed in service and first producing energy on or after July 1, 2007, and extends for five years, ending on July 1, 2012, or, if later, five years from the date the facility was placed in service and first produced electricity. In no case shall the rebate apply after June 30, 2017.
(b) Nine cents per therm for methane gas fuel produced from biomass resources in a facility not using biomass resources before June 30, 2007, or facilities which produce at least twenty-five percent more methane gas from biomass resources than the greatest three-year average before June 30, 2007, up to a maximum of one hundred thousand dollars per year per taxpayer for five years. The rebate is applicable to energy from a qualifying facility placed in service and first producing energy on or after July 1, 2007, and extends for five years, and ending before July 1, 2012, or, if later, five years from the date the facility was placed in service and first produced electricity. In no case shall the rebate apply after June 30, 2017.
(2) For purposes of this subsection, a biomass resource means wood, wood waste, agricultural waste, animal waste, sewage, landfill gas, and other organic materials.
(D) The Department of Revenue may prescribe forms and procedures, issue policy documents, and distribute funds as necessary to ensure the orderly and timely implementation of the provisions of this section. The Department of Revenue shall coordinate with the Department of Agriculture as necessary.
