A superior court judge has issued a ruling on a complicated case involving two Arizona solar companies that have been battling over tax issues with the state Department of Revenue, but it’s unclear as to what the ruling really means.
The lawsuit stems from Arizona’s drastically different renewable energy landscape back in 2009, when solar was a burgeoning industry flush with rebates and incentives that had been in place for several years prior.
That same year, state lawmakers passed new legislation that exempted homeowners and businesses from paying property taxes on their solar systems.
