Solar in Payson in 2026: Public Power, Peach Days, and a 10% Rate Climb
Payson is a historic Utah County city at the mouth of Payson Canyon, known for the annual Peach Days celebration and served by its own public power utility, Payson Power and Light. With utilities statewide now projecting close to 10 percent annual electricity rate increases and Mike's instant 30 percent rebate ending July 4, 2026, Payson homeowners have a clear reason to lock in solar this year.
Payson Power and Light: confirm your terms
Payson runs its own public power utility rather than Rocky Mountain Power, so net metering and export credit terms are set locally. Confirm the current solar program and rate schedule with Mike before sizing your system, since public power terms can differ from what's typical elsewhere in Utah County.
Why Payson is a solid solar market
Payson combines established single-family neighborhoods with newer development pushing toward the canyon mouth, and strong Utah County sun throughout the growing season. Families here are budget-conscious, and locking in a fixed solar cost against a climbing utility bill is a straightforward way to protect the household budget.
The rate story: 4 percent was normal, 10 percent is the projection
Utah rates historically rose around 4 percent a year. Utilities are now projecting close to 10 percent annually, driven by AI data-center demand and grid modernization. That pressure touches public power communities too. Solar locks your cost of production in place.
What changed in 2026, and what Mike offers
The federal residential solar tax credit ended January 1, 2026 for cash and loan buyers. You do not get it in 2026. Mike's instant 30 percent rebate replaces that value, applied at signing with no filing and no waiting. The deadline is July 4, 2026, after which projects move to full price.
