The term "sale" or "sold" has been revised to include the use of electricity by the producer of such electricity that decreases the amount of electricity the producer would otherwise have to purchase.
The definition of taxpayer has been clarified to include a general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, trust or other artificial entity in which a corporation owns an interest. Additional information will need to be included in the application for an allocation of the credit by the corporate owners of these entities.
A taxpayer's use of the credit granted pursuant to this section does not reduce the amount of any credit available to such taxpayer under section 220.186 F.S.
