Unless installed before December 31, 2021, methane gas conversion property must be connected with or work in conjunction with a publicly owned sanitary landfill to qualify. If another fuel is burned at the property, the exemption only applies to the portion of the value of the property such that it is the ratio of methane gas to total fuel consumed. Applications are due before February 1 each year to the Department of Revenue.
