Rhode Island (RI) data center power coverage
Real, sourced large-load tariff and interconnection research on file for Rhode Island — never inferred, never scraped, never implied beyond what's actually been checked.
Large-load tariffs
Rhode Island Energy -- legislation only
ThresholdNo tariff or threshold found
StatusBills H7270 and S2427/S2776 would create large-load frameworks (exit fees, bring-your-own-generation, curtailment rights were advocated in testimony). No PUC docket or filed Rhode Island Energy tariff was found; the utility's own filing said best practices are still evolving.
SourceRhode Island General Assembly committee documents (rilegislature.gov), April 2026.
Interconnection & regulatory guidance
Rhode Island — S2427 would create a large-load rate classification; status as introduced bill, not yet confirmed enacted
Contact guidanceTreat this as a proposed, not adopted, framework until its enactment status is confirmed directly with the Rhode Island PUC or General Assembly.
ThresholdS2427 would direct the PUC to create a service classification for 'large energy use facilities' -- a specific numeric MW threshold was not confirmed from the bill text during this research.
ProcessAs introduced, S2427 would require the Rhode Island PUC to establish this new rate classification; confirm current legislative status directly before relying on this.
SourceRhode Island General Assembly committee documents (rilegislature.gov, S2427, with Acadia Center testimony). Final enactment status not independently confirmed during this research.
