Rhode Island utilities and tariffs

How Rhode Island businesses are billed, and what exported solar earns

Rhode Island Energy (The Narragansett Electric Company) serves commercial customers across the state.

Commercial billing

  • General C&I accounts with demand of 10 kW or more take rate G-02. Billed demand is the greatest 15-minute peak, with a 75% ratchet on the prior 11 months and a 10 kW minimum.
  • Accounts averaging over 200 kW may be moved to G-32, the large demand rate.

Net metering and exports

  • Net metering runs under R.I. Gen. Laws ch. 39-26.4 and Rhode Island Energy's net metering provision (RIPUC No. 2279, effective May 12, 2026), for systems up to 10 MW AC.
  • Generation up to 100% of the account's usage is credited at the sum of the last resort service, distribution, transmission and transition charges. For systems over 25 kW, excess credits stop at 125% of usage. How that excess is valued is still before the PUC after the 2025 law change (Docket 25-50-EL), so we confirm the current rule for each project.

Checked against these sources on October 7, 2026: Rhode Island Energy, G-02 tariff RIPUC No. 2286 (effective September 1, 2026); Rhode Island Energy, Net metering provision RIPUC No. 2279 (effective May 12, 2026). Tariffs and net metering rules change; we confirm the current version for each project. This is not legal or tax advice.
