Local Option Property Tax Exemption for Renewable Energy in New Hampshire?
See: http://nh.gov/ oep/programs/energy/renewableenergy.htm
New Hampshire’s local option property tax statute allows each city and town to offer an exemption on residential property taxes in the amount of the assessed value of a renewable energy system used on the property. Eligible technologies may include solar (photovoltaics, solar space heating, solar water heating, passive solar), wind, and wood-fired central heating systems. Cities and towns must adopt the exemption provision separately for each energy source. As of 2003, the most recent data available, 57 New Hampshire cities and towns offer the property tax incentive for one or more of these energy sources.
