class=\"palmetto-section-intro\">Electricity costs in Colorado have been climbing \u2014 and that trend is worth paying attention to as a homeowner.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"palmetto-section-body\">Colorado&#8217;s average electricity rate rose from 13.1 cents per kWh in 2021 to 15.1 cents in 2024 \u2014 a 15% increase in just four years. Nationally, rates climbed even faster, from 13.7 to 16.5 cents over the same period.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"palmetto-section-body\">Solar panels generate electricity from sunlight, which means the power your system produces isn&#8217;t subject to utility rate increases. The more your rate rises over time, the more value your solar system can deliver.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"palmetto-section-body\">Programs like Palmetto&#8217;s LightReach let Colorado homeowners go solar with no upfront cost. You pay a fixed monthly rate \u2014 often lower than your current bill \u2014 while Palmetto owns, monitors, and maintains the system for you.<\/p>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            \n            <div class=\"electricity-chart-container\">\n                <h3 class=\"chart-title\">Price of Energy: Colorado vs National Average<\/h3>\n\n                <div class=\"bar-chart-container\">\n  <div class=\"y-axis\">\n    <div class=\"y-label\">0\u00a2<\/div>\n    <div class=\"y-label\">10\u00a2<\/div>\n    <div class=\"y-label\">20\u00a2<\/div>\n    <div class=\"y-label\">30\u00a2<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"chart-area\">\n    <div class=\"grid-lines\">\n      <div class=\"grid-line\"><\/div>\n      <div class=\"grid-line\"><\/div>\n      <div class=\"grid-line\"><\/div>\n      <div class=\"grid-line\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <!-- 2021 -->\n    <div class=\"year-column\">\n      <div class=\"bar-group\">\n        <div class=\"bar us-bar\" style=\"height: 45.67%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">13.7\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bar local-bar\" style=\"height: 43.67%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">13.1\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <!-- 2022 -->\n    <div class=\"year-column\">\n      <div class=\"bar-group\">\n        <div class=\"bar us-bar\" style=\"height: 50.00%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">15.0\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bar local-bar\" style=\"height: 47.33%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">14.2\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <!-- 2023 -->\n    <div class=\"year-column\">\n      <div class=\"bar-group\">\n        <div class=\"bar us-bar\" style=\"height: 53.33%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">16.0\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bar local-bar\" style=\"height: 47.67%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">14.3\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <!-- 2024 -->\n    <div class=\"year-column\">\n      <div class=\"bar-group\">\n        <div class=\"bar us-bar\" style=\"height: 55.00%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">16.5\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bar local-bar\" style=\"height: 50.33%;\">\n          <span class=\"bar-label\">15.1\u00a2<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x-axis\">\n  <div class=\"year-label\">2021<\/div>\n  <div class=\"year-label\">2022<\/div>\n  <div class=\"year-label\">2023<\/div>\n  <div class=\"year-label\">2024<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"chart-legend\">\n  <div class=\"legend-item\">\n    <span class=\"legend-color us-color\"><\/span>\n    <span class=\"legend-label\">US Average<\/span>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"legend-item\">\n    <span class=\"legend-color local-color\"><\/span>\n    <span class=\"legend-label\">Colorado<\/span>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"chart-source\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/electricity\/data\/eia861\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Energy Information Administration, Form 861<\/a><\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      \n        <div class=\"palmetto-utilities-section\">\n            <h3 class=\"palmetto-section-subheading\">Colorado Area Utility Providers<\/h3>\n\n            <div class=\"palmetto-utilities-grid\">\n                <div class=\"palmetto-utilities-text\">\n                    <p class=\"palmetto-section-intro\">Colorado&#8217;s three major electric utilities \u2014 Xcel Energy, CORE Electric, and Colorado Springs Utilities \u2014 all charged below the 2023 national average of 16.0\u00a2 per kWh.

This means that even though adding solar panels increases your home&#8217;s market value, the added value from the solar system will not be included in your property tax assessment \u2014 saving you money every year you own the system.<\/p><p>To qualify, the solar system must be located on residential real property, used to produce electricity from solar energy primarily for use in that residence, and have a production capacity of no more than 100 kilowatts (AC). The exemption applies to the renewable energy equipment itself, not the underlying land or home structure.<\/p><p>This is an automatic, ongoing benefit \u2014 there is no application required. As long as your system meets the eligibility criteria, you are entitled to the exemption. It is one of the easiest and most valuable long-term financial benefits of going solar in Colorado.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"incentive-accordion\">\n        <button class=\"accordion-trigger\">\n        <span class=\"accordion-title\">Colorado Solar Sales Tax Exemption<\/span>\n        <span class=\"accordion-icon\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down\"><\/i>\n        <\/span>\n        <\/button>\n        <div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>Colorado offers a 100% exemption from the state&#8217;s 2.9% sales tax on the purchase of residential solar system equipment. This exemption applies at the point of sale, meaning you simply won&#8217;t be charged state sales tax when you buy qualifying solar components \u2014 no rebate application or reimbursement process is needed.<\/p><p>The exemption covers state-administered special district sales taxes but does not apply to most state-administered city and county sales taxes. On a typical 5 kW solar system costing around $15,000, the state sales tax exemption could save you approximately $435 or more.<\/p><p>This benefit is available to all Colorado homeowners purchasing solar equipment, regardless of income. It stacks well with other incentives such as utility rebates and the state battery storage tax credit, helping to further reduce your total out-of-pocket cost.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"incentive-accordion\">\n        <button class=\"accordion-trigger\">\n        <span class=\"accordion-title\">Colorado Residential Energy Storage System Tax Credit<\/span>\n        <span class=\"accordion-icon\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down\"><\/i>\n        <\/span>\n        <\/button>\n        <div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>Colorado&#8217;s Residential Energy Storage System Tax Credit allows homeowners to claim a 10% state income tax credit on the purchase of a qualifying home battery backup system. The credit applies to the cost of battery components, sales tax, and shipping \u2014 and is not reduced by any utility rebates you may also receive. The credit is available for tax years 2023 through 2026.<\/p><p>To qualify, the energy storage system must be installed in a residential building in Colorado and meet minimum capacity requirements (at least 3 kWh). The credit is filed using Colorado Form DR-1307 when you submit your state income tax return for the year the system was installed.<\/p><p>For example, if your battery storage system costs $10,000 (including tax and shipping), you could receive a $1,000 state tax credit.

When your solar panels produce more electricity than your home uses, the excess energy is sent back to the grid and your utility credits your account at the full retail electricity rate \u2014 meaning each kilowatt-hour (kWh) you export is worth the same as a kWh you would otherwise purchase. This significantly improves the financial return on your solar investment.<\/p><p>Net metering applies to all regulated utilities and electric cooperatives in Colorado (excluding small municipal utilities). Credits accumulate on your bill and roll over from month to month. If you end the year with a net surplus of credits, your utility is required to reimburse you for those excess credits, or you may opt to roll them over to the following year.<\/p><p>For Xcel Energy customers, net metering is available for systems producing up to 200% of your annual electricity usage. As of 2026, Colorado Springs Utilities confirmed no changes to the flat-rate net metering structure.

For systems with a capacity between 10 and 19.9 kWh, the rebate is $1,000, with a maximum rebate of $3,000 available for larger systems.<\/p><p>Customers living in designated areas may also be eligible for an additional $500 bonus on top of the standard rebate amount. The program is designed to encourage battery storage adoption among LPEA members, particularly when paired with rooftop solar systems.<\/p><p>LPEA members should contact the cooperative directly to confirm the current list of approved battery brands, rebate tiers for different capacity ranges, designated area eligibility, and application procedures. Funding is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"incentive-accordion\">\n        <button class=\"accordion-trigger\">\n        <span class=\"accordion-title\">Tesla Powerwall 3 Rebate<\/span>\n        <span class=\"accordion-icon\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down\"><\/i>\n        <\/span>\n        <\/button>\n        <div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>Tesla is offering a limited-time manufacturer rebate of $500 per Powerwall 3 unit installed, with a maximum rebate of $1,000 per address (covering up to 2 units). Both the Powerwall 3 and Powerwall 3 Expansion Units are eligible for this rebate. This offer is available to Colorado homeowners as part of a broader national promotion.<\/p><p>To qualify, homeowners must register for the rebate by March 31, 2026, and complete the installation by September 30, 2026. Missing either deadline will disqualify the system from receiving the rebate, so it is important to plan your installation timeline accordingly.<\/p><p>This Tesla manufacturer rebate can be stacked with other Colorado incentives, including the Xcel Energy Renewable Battery Connect Program (for Xcel customers), the Colorado state 10% battery storage tax credit, and any applicable utility rebates. Combining these incentives can significantly reduce the net cost of a Powerwall 3 installation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"incentive-accordion\">\n        <button class=\"accordion-trigger\">\n        <span class=\"accordion-title\">Colorado RENU Loan Program<\/span>\n        <span class=\"accordion-icon\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down\"><\/i>\n        <\/span>\n        <\/button>\n        <div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>The Colorado Residential Energy Upgrade (RENU) Loan Program, offered through the Colorado Clean Energy Fund in partnership with state credit unions, provides affordable financing for homeowners who want to install solar panels or make other clean energy improvements. Homeowners can borrow up to $75,000 with no down payment required, a fixed monthly payment, and no prepayment penalty.<\/p><p>Loan terms extend up to 20 years, and interest rates are set below market rates, making this one of the most affordable solar financing options available in Colorado. The program is supported by the Colorado Clean Energy Fund, a nonprofit organization with ties to the state government, ensuring its mission is focused on expanding clean energy access rather than profit.<\/p><p>The RENU Loan is available to Colorado homeowners who own their home and is designed to work alongside other incentives. For example, you could use the RENU Loan to finance your solar system while still claiming the Colorado property tax exemption, sales tax exemption, and any applicable utility rebates \u2014 reducing both your upfront costs and your long-term financing burden.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"incentive-accordion\">\n        <button class=\"accordion-trigger\">\n        <span class=\"accordion-title\">Colorado Solar for All (COS4A) Program<\/span>\n        <span class=\"accordion-icon\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down\"><\/i>\n        <\/span>\n        <\/button>\n        <div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>The Colorado Solar for All (COS4A) program was funded through a $156 million award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Solar for All competition, established by the federal Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The Colorado Energy Office administers the program, which is designed to expand rooftop solar adoption among low-income, underserved, and environmental justice communities across the state.<\/p><p>The program works with competitively selected industry partners to deliver, install, operate, and manage solar assets for eligible households. The goal is to reduce energy costs and improve energy resilience for Coloradans who have historically had limited access to solar energy benefits.<\/p><p>Note: The Colorado Solar for All Single Family 100% Subsidy Program (SF100) is currently on hold as of 2026. Interested households should monitor the Colorado Energy Office website for updates on program availability, eligibility requirements, and how to apply when the program resumes accepting applications.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"palmetto-incentives-cta\">\n        <h3 class=\"cta-heading\">Ready to go solar with no money down?<\/h3>\n        <p

With a PPA, you pay a set rate per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for the solar energy your system produces, rather than a fixed monthly amount. That means your payment reflects actual production \u2014 typically higher in Colorado&#8217;s sunny summers and lower in winter.<\/p>\n\n<p>Compared to paying cash upfront, a PPA through LightReach removes the largest barrier to going solar: the upfront cost. There&#8217;s no large investment to recoup, no loan to manage, and no maintenance to worry about. Since Palmetto Finance owns the system, we handle everything \u2014 from detailed solar design and premium panel installation to permitting, project management, and ongoing maintenance \u2014 all at no cost to you.<\/p>\n\n<p>LightReach also includes a 90% Production Guarantee: if your system underperforms, we&#8217;ll credit you the difference. Every plan comes with a comprehensive protection program for complete peace of mind. Unlike most third-party solar arrangements, LightReach centralizes everything into one inclusive price, managed solely by Palmetto. <a href=\"https:\/\/palmetto.com\/solar-buy-or-lease\">Learn more
