Solar Guidance And Model Ordinance Development

The Office of Energy Resources and Division of Statewide Planning developed two (2) Solar Siting Guidance (Municipal Comprehensive Plans, Model Ordinances/Taxation) Reports and an informational PowerPoint for municipalities and interested stakeholders. The documents were developed in collaboration with a broad set of stakeholders and public outreach meetings that occurred across the State between June and October 2018. Below are PDF links to the final documents. If you have any questions, please contact Chris Kearns at christopher.kearns@energy.ri.gov .
