Super Deduction Tax for Solar PV & EV Charging
Recently, Rishi Sunak, Secretary of the Treasury, presented plans to cut tax bills for corporations by offering a 'Super Deduction'. From April 2021, companies can claim up to 130% of their Capital Allowances back from the Government, for qualifying investments. The list includes both Solar PV panels as well as EV Charge Points.
A new 130% first-year capital allowance for qualifying plant and machinery assets; and a 50% first-year allowance for qualifying special rate assets.
Under the scheme, for every pound invested, the company can save up to 25p on taxes. This kind of saving is hoped to be a win-win, as companies save whilst improving their business. The list of qualifying items is presented below:
- Solar panels
- Electric vehicle charge points
- Computer equipment and servers
- Tractors, lorries, vans
- Ladders, drills, cranes
- Office chairs and desks
- Refrigeration units
- Compressors
- Foundry equipment
