1. Property Tax Exemption. Some New Hampshire towns and municipalities offer property tax exemptions based on the amount of the assessed value of a renewable-energy system used on the property. Some but not all include exemptions for wood-fired central heating systems. There were 77 cities and towns offering renewable energy incentives as of 2008 and 28 of those included wood burning systems.
