Colorado has some of the most consumer-friendly net metering policies in the U.S. Black Hills, Xcel and several cooperatives and municipalities provide 1:1 credit for all power produced. While the price of power has grown tremendously over the past decade, the net metering policies have kept pace.

Investor-owned utilities Xcel and Black Hills have the two highest electric rates in the state. In 2026, Xcel is seeking is seventh consecutive double-digit annual rate increase, while Black Hills has the highest electric rates in the state.

How Much Can You Save with Solar

While results will vary based on the specific use case at your home, Colorado customers who have switched to solar using the newest available programs can save $2500* over the first 5 years of switching without any investment needed.

How Solar Works

Colorado homes are a great place for those looking to install solar panels. Solar panels are installed on your roof at an angle that captures sunlight throughout the day. Direct current (DC) is generated and flows into an inverter where it’s converted into alternating current (AC). This can then power all of those household appliances. A meter tracks how much extra electricity is used.

Solar Tax Incentives

While in the past there were tax credits available, particularly the ITC, for residential installations in the past. They helped support the growth of solar from their introduction in 2005 until 2025. During that time over 5 million homes were able to take advantage of those programs. Although the residential tax credit is no longer available, there remains cost effective ways to make the switch to solar.

Environmental Benefits of Solar Panels

The average home in Colorado uses 9000 kWh. By switching to solar they can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, local air pollutants, and help mitigate climate in of the most meaningful ways for an individual. Switching to solar can be the equivalent of not driving 600,000 miles in gasoline powered car or planting 3000 trees!
