Solar Panels in Utah are a natural fit for a state with over 240 sunny days per year and some of the highest solar potential in the U.S. With falling solar prices and statewide incentives, solar adoption in Utah has surged.
Cost of solar panels in Utah
Residential solar systems cost between $12,000 and $21,000 before incentives. The average price per watt is $2.4–2.7. A typical household consuming 900–1,200 kWh monthly usually installs a 6–8 kW system.
Incentives and programs
Utah supports solar with:
- Federal Solar Tax Credit (30%).
- Utah Renewable Energy Systems Tax Credit: up to 25% of system cost, capped at $800.
- Property tax exemption for solar installations.
