Did you know Rocky Mountain Power hiked rates 18.1% in 2025? A new 4.48% jump adds $4 to $14 a month. What if solar kept your bills low?

Utah's solar market slows in 2026. We checked fresh data. Here are seven key pains for Spring Lake families.

Rate Hikes Add Up: Rocky Mountain Power proposed a 30.5% jump but got 18.1% in 2025. Rates went from 10.96 cents per kWh to 12.94 cents. A new 4.48% hike started Jan 1, 2026 for wildfire risks. This adds $4.31 to $14.28 a month to bills. Spring Lake folks worry about higher costs for heat.
Solar Prices Jump Post-ITC: The 30% federal credit ended Dec 31, 2025. Systems now cost 50-100% more. Average setups hit $31,552 for 11.81 kW. Payback times stretch 43% longer. Families feel solar is too pricey without the credit.
Long Battery Waits: Tesla Powerwall waits hit 9-10 weeks in Utah. Full installs take 2-6 months with demand and permits. In Spring Lake, this means no 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, as companies hike 50-100% post-ITC or close.
Market Growth Drops: Utah ranks 13th with 3,110 MW solar. But installs may drop 18-30% in 2026 post-ITC. New rules slow projects. Fewer choices mean higher prices for all.
More Blackouts and Peak Fees: Weather ups outage risks. Peak rates add extra charges. Without storage, Spring Lake homes go dark and bills climb.
Affordability Fears Grow: No ITC means upfront costs soar. Families worry about 50-100% jumps without credits. Many skip solar and face rising fees.
