Rhode Island Local Incentives
Net Metering
Net-metering allows Rhode Island homeowners with eligible renewable energy systems to receive bill credits for all power generated up to 125 percent of the on-site consumption during a billing period. Your renewable energy system must be sited on your property. Eligible customer-sited net metering systems must be sized to meet on-site loads, based on a three-year average of electricity consumption at the property. The decision is binding for the lifetime of the contract.
Renewable Energy Growth Program
Residential Customers will receive a bill credit for energy and the system owner will be paid the remaining Performance Based Incentive (PBIs are set by the RI Distributed Generation Board, approved by the RI Public Utilities Commission and applicable from 4/1/23 – 3/31/24). Residential customer systems must be sized to produce electricity at a level not greater than the historic or estimated annual usage of the receiving customer. Residential customer projects must be located at a customer residence that receives electric service under the Basic Residential Rate A-16 or Low-Income Rate A- 60.
Solar Sales & Property Tax Exemptions
Rhode Island has a 100% sales tax exemption for eligible renewable energy materials and a residential property tax exemption.
Federal Tax Credit
The federal government offers a tax credit that covers 30% of the cost of your solar energy system. This isn’t a write-off or a deduction, but a dollar-for-dollar credit against your income taxes for the year the system is installed. You are eligible to claim all of this in one year.
