The consumption of electrical energy from generators with a total power not exceeding 100 kW is not subject to tax

A company seeks clarification on the tax treatment of electricity generated and consumed within its solar facilities. The DGT clarifies that no tax liability arises if the power output is equal to or less than 100 kW and it does not form part of a larger field.

The question raised

Question posed: Tax treatment for the purposes of the Special Tax on Electricity of electricity which, having been generated by the applicant, is consumed by them.

The DGT's ruling

El consumo de energía generada por sí mismo no está sujeto al impuesto si la potencia total del generador o conjunto de generadores es igual o inferior a 100 kW. Si la potencia supera los 100 kW, la actividad está sujeta pero puede estar exenta según el régimen retributivo específico o el uso en la actividad. En caso de sujeción, es obligatorio inscribirse en el registro territorial y presentar autoliquidaciones, aunque la cuota sea cero.
