A taxpayer with at least a 5% interest in a qualifying energy-generating business may be allocated all or part of the right to claim the credit, but only if the business is taxed federally as a partnership and EMNRD has approved the allocation. A qualifying energy generator means a facility with at least one megawatt generating capacity located in New Mexico that produces electricity using a qualified energy resource and that sells that electricity to an unrelated person. This credit, effective from the original date of application, continues until the facility either goes out of production for more than 6 consecutive months or its 10- year eligibility expires.
