| Critical Information | Vermont's sales tax exemption for renewable-energy systems, passed as part of the Miscellaneous Tax Reduction Act of 1999 (H. 0548), originally applied only to net-metered systems. For the purposes of this incentive, the net metered amount of energy produced by a qualified small hydroelectric system must not exceed 15 kilowatts. On-farm systems with a maximum capacity of 150 kilowatts (kW) are eligible for the exemption; other eligible technologies are limited to a system capacity of 15 kW. Vermont's current sales tax rate is 6 percent. The sales tax exemption applies to solar-electric (PV) systems, wind systems, anaerobic digesters and fuel cells fueled by renewable resources. |
