Core County-Wide Savings with Ask Solar Mike's Instant Program – Affordable Resilience Against Post-ITC Hikes and Market Volatility

Did you know Rocky Mountain Power hiked rates 18.1% in 2025? More jumps up to 28% come by mid-2026. This adds $4 to $24 to monthly bills. What if solar gave you core strength?

Pain Points in the Utah Solar Market

Utah's solar market hurts in 2026. We checked fresh data. Here are seven key pains for Utah County families.

  • Big Rate Hikes: Rocky Mountain Power got an 18.1% jump in 2025. It was cut from a proposed 30.5%. Rates rose from 10.96 cents per kWh to 12.94 cents on Dec 1, 2025. A new 4.48% hike starts Jan 1, 2026 for wildfire risks. Bills go up $4.31 to $14.28 a month. Utah County folks worry about paying more for summer AC.

  • Solar Prices Jump Post-ITC: The 30% federal credit ended Jan 1, 2026. Systems now cost 50-100% more without it. Average setups hit $31,552 for 11.81 kW. Payback times stretch 43% longer. Families feel solar is too pricey now.

  • Long Battery Waits: Tesla Powerwall waits are 9-10 weeks in Utah. Full installs take 2-6 months with high demand and permits. In Utah County, this leaves homes without quick backup for blackouts.

  • High Competitor Costs: Other firms charge $2.58-3.02 per watt for panels. Powerwall setups run $11,500-$17,000. Full systems? $11,025 to $24,255. Folks pay more elsewhere, like in Orem where costs bite without deals.

  • Market Growth Drops: Utah ranks 13th in solar with 3,110 MW. But installs drop 18-30% post-ITC. New rules slow projects. Fewer options push prices up for all.

  • More Blackouts and Peak Fees: Weather ups outage risks. Peak rates add extra charges. Without storage, Utah County homes go dark and bills climb.

  • Affordability Fears Grow: No ITC means upfront costs soar. Families worry about higher prices without credits. Many skip solar and face rising utility fees.

These pains make solar hard. But we have core fixes.
