Bill > H3906

This bill aims to clarify property tax exemptions for solar and wind energy systems in Massachusetts. It amends the state's property tax law to exempt solar or wind systems that produce up to 125% of the annual energy needs of the real property on which they are located. For systems producing more energy, the bill allows municipalities to enter into payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT) agreements with the system owners. The bill also excludes solar and wind systems from the definition of "generation facility" under a separate provision of the property tax law. The changes made by this bill will apply to property taxes assessed starting in fiscal year 2019.
