Rhode Island Current Use Tax Renewable Energy Exemption

This statute is one part of Rhode Island’s differential assessment property tax law that assesses agricultural land at its value for agriculture, rather than its fair market value.

This section allows up to 20% of the total agricultural land acreage to be converted to a renewable energy system without incurring a land use change tax.
