Solar energy allows you to lock in your electricity costs, insulating you from rising electricity prices. Instead of paying the utility, you’ll put those savings back in your pocket.

Let’s look at some average solar panel installation costs:

  • Home solar panel installation costs range from $20,000 to $50,000 on average depending on how much electricity you use, your future electrification goals, and other factors.
  • The 30% federal tax credit is available now – that’s $6,000 to $15,000 in savings on average. There are also currently solar incentives available in certain Colorado cities.
