Notice to Agriculture and Industrial/Manufacturing Customers

In April 2012, Governor Nathan Deal signed House Bill (HB) 386 into law.

Under this new law, customers that meet the definition of qualified agricultural producers are eligible for an exemption from sales and use tax on energy used in agriculture; manufacturing customers that meet the requirements of the new law are eligible for a partial exemption from sales and use tax on energy used in manufacturing which will be phased in over a four year period.

The law becomes effective January 1, 2013.

Agriculture customers must apply to the Department of Agriculture for a tax exemption certificate - GATE (Georgia Agricultural Tax Exemption).  The Georgia Department of Agriculture can be reached at 1-855-FARM-TAX (http://agr.georgia.gov). We must receive a copy of the GATE certificate provided to you by the Department of Agriculture along with a listing of your Power Commission account numbers and service addresses for energy that qualifies for this exemption.  The agricultural exemption expires at the end of each year and must be re-submitted each year.  Click here to download a form on which you can list your qualifying account information.

Industrial/manufacturing customers must provide us a Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption Form (ST-5M and ST-5M addendum) along with a listing of your Power Commission account numbers and service addresses for energy that qualifies for this exemption.  Sales and Use Tax exemption forms are available on the Georgia Department of Revenue’s website (https://etax.dor.ga.gov/salestax/st3forms/st3_indx.aspx). Click here to download a form on which you can list your qualifying account information.

Exemption documents may be submitted to us in the following manners:

Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs

An Energy Star qualified compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) will save about $30 over its lifetime and pay for itself in about 6 months. It uses 75 percent less energy and lasts about 10 times longer than an incandescent bulb.
