Ride 50% Boom Before ITC Job Losses Hit

Introduction

Do rising power bills worry you in Alpine? Utah rates jumped nearly 20% in 2025, ranking third in the US for increases. With blackouts on the rise, solar batteries can help. This guide explores trends to save big before tax credits end.

Pain Points Analysis

Utah solar market has tough spots now. These hit Alpine and nearby like Highland hard. Fresh data from Rocky Mountain Power (4.7% residential hike approved April 2025, raising rates to 12.94 cents/kWh from February; part of 18.1% total after initial 30.6% proposal denied) and trends (installs falling 2025, waits 3-6 months per SolarReviews, ITC end risking 300k jobs and 363M tons CO2 per Sierra Club) shows why. Here are seven key pains, in simple terms.

Rising Electricity Rates

Rocky Mountain Power's 4.7% hike adds $14 monthly to average homes, down from proposed $24. Utah's 20% overall jump ranks third in US. Alpine families pay $50 more often, stressing budgets.

ITC Deadline Stress

The residential ITC (30%) ends December 31, 2025—no phase-down, just gone. Utah's state credit expires for post-2025 systems per HB 264, potentially slowing growth and cutting 300k clean jobs. Homeowners rush, fearing lost thousands.

Long Wait Times for Batteries

Installs take 3-6 months in Utah per SolarReviews, with supply snags adding 4-6 weeks. Residential setups fell in 2025 due to hikes. In Alpine, waits risk missing ITC, causing big frustration.

High Upfront Costs

Batteries cost $24,000 to $26,000 without deals. Average Utah solar system $2.66/W, 5kW $13,314 pre-credit per EnergySage. Alpine residents can't afford that hit amid hikes.

Uncertainty with Tax Filings

ITC needs tax forms. Income shifts or audits cut credits. Highland families fear losing the full 30%. This stops many solar plans.

Competitor High Pricing

Rivals charge $16,000 to $26,000 for Powerwall 3. Utah average $3.02/W, 7.2kW $21,744 after credit per SolarReviews. No specials make solar feel too expensive.

Blackouts and Unreliable Power

Storms and solar flares (more in 2025 per Utah State) cause outages. No battery means dark homes. But costs block fixes, adding worry.

These pains hurt families. Alpine residents lose sleep over bills and deadlines. But trends point to solutions.
