Utah Incentives & Rebates
Utah's state solar tax credit expired in 2022. Net metering available but transitioning to reduced export rates. Property tax exemption for solar. Note: The federal 30% residential solar tax credit expired December 31, 2025 for customer-owned systems. Solar leases and PPAs may still offer indirect savings from the commercial tax credit. Check with a tax advisor for current eligibility. Source: DSIRE.
