 A. 6739                             2
 
   (ii) the lease of solar energy system equipment under a written agree-
 ment  that  spans  at  least  ten  years where such equipment owned by a
 person other than the taxpayer is installed in connection with  residen-
 tial  property which is (I) located in this state and (II) which is used
 by  the taxpayer as his or her principal residence at the time the solar
 energy system equipment is placed in service; or
   (iii) the purchase of power under a written agreement  that  spans  at
 least  ten  years  whereunder  the power purchased is generated by solar

 her principal residence at the time the solar energy system equipment is

 als, labor costs properly allocable to on-site preparation, assembly and
 original  installation,  architectural  and  engineering  services,  and
 designs and plans directly related to the construction  or  installation

   (C)  Such  qualified  expenditures  for  the  purchase of solar energy
 system equipment shall not include interest or other finance charges.
   (D) Such qualified expenditures for the lease of solar  energy  system
 equipment  or  the  purchase  of  power  under an agreement described in
 clauses (ii) or (iii)  of  subparagraph  (A)  of  this  paragraph  shall
 include  an  amount  equal  to all payments made during the taxable year

 limitation  in  paragraph one of this subsection shall only apply to the
 total aggregate amount of all payments to be made pursuant to an  agree-
 ment  referenced  in  clauses  (ii) or (iii) of subparagraph (A) of this
 paragraph, and shall not apply to  individual  payments  made  during  a
 taxable  year  under such agreement except to the extent such limitation
 on an aggregate basis has been reached.

 any sort of recreational facility or  equipment  as  a  storage  medium.
 Solar  energy system equipment that generates AND STORES electricity for
 use in a residence must conform to applicable requirements set forth  in
 section  sixty-six-j of the public service law. Provided, however, where
 solar energy system equipment is purchased and installed by a  condomin-
 ium  management  association  or  a cooperative housing corporation, for
 purposes of this subsection only,  the  term  "ten  kilowatts"  in  such
 section  sixty-six-j shall be read as ["fifty] "TEN kilowatts MULTIPLIED

 A. 6739                             3

 total  expenditure for such solar energy system equipment contributed by
 each taxpayer.
   (5)  Proportionate  share.  Where  solar  energy  system  equipment is
 purchased and installed by a condominium  management  association  or  a
 cooperative  housing  corporation,  a  taxpayer  who  is a member of the
 condominium management association or who is a tenant-stockholder in the
 cooperative housing corporation may for the purpose of  this  subsection
 claim  a proportionate share of the total expense as the expenditure for
 the purposes of the credit attributable to [his] THEIR  principal  resi-
 dence.
   (6)  Grants. For purposes of determining the amount of the expenditure
 incurred in purchasing and installing solar energy system equipment, the
 amount of any federal, state or local grant received  by  the  taxpayer,
 which  was  used  for the purchase and/or installation of such equipment
 and which was not included in the federal gross income of the  taxpayer,
 shall not be included in the amount of such expenditures.
   (7)    When  credit  allowed.  The credit provided for herein shall be
 allowed with respect to the  taxable  year,  commencing  after  nineteen
 hundred  ninety-seven,  in  which  the  solar energy system equipment is
 placed in service.
   (8) Carryover of credit AND REFUNDABILITY.  If the amount of the cred-
 it, and carryovers of such credit, allowable under this  subsection  for
 any  taxable  year  shall  exceed the taxpayer's tax for such year, such
 excess amount may be carried over to the five taxable years next follow-
 ing the taxable year with respect to which the credit is allowed and may
 be deducted from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years.  FOR TAXABLE
 YEARS BEGINNING ON OR AFTER JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND TWENTY-FOUR,  IF
 THE  AMOUNT  OF  THE CREDIT ALLOWABLE UNDER THIS SUBSECTION SHALL EXCEED
 THE TAXPAYER'S TAX LIABILITY FOR SUCH YEAR, AND THE TAXPAYER  MEETS  THE
 DEFINITION  OF  LOW-TO-MODERATE  INCOME  OR  RESIDES  IN A DISADVANTAGED
 COMMUNITY, THE EXCESS SHALL BE TREATED AS AN OVERPAYMENT OF  TAX  TO  BE
 CREDITED  OR  REFUNDED  IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION SIX
 HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX OF THIS ARTICLE, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NO  INTEREST
 SHALL BE PAID THEREON.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
