Yes. Cedar City receives excellent solar irradiance due to its elevation and climate in Southern Utah. Rocky Mountain Power offers net metering, allowing excess energy generated to offset your bill. The federal Residential Clean Energy Credit provides a 30% tax credit on installation costs through 2032.
System cost depends on the size in kilowatts, panel brand, inverter type, and roof complexity. After applying the 30% federal tax credit (IRS Form 5695), most residential systems in Southern Utah range from $15,000 to $35,000 before incentives. Fowler Electric provides free site assessments and transparent quotes.
Most residential rooftop solar installations take one to three days for the physical work. The full timeline including permits, utility interconnection approval, and inspections typically ranges from four to eight weeks depending on local authority response times.
If your roof has fewer than 10 years of useful life remaining, replacing it before solar installation avoids the cost of removing and reinstalling panels later. Fowler Electric assesses roof condition as part of the site evaluation and can coordinate with a roofing contractor if needed.
Rooftop solar installations in Cedar City require a building permit and an electrical permit from the City of Cedar City, plus utility interconnection approval from Rocky Mountain Power. Fowler Electric LLC manages all permit applications and utility paperwork as part of the installation process.
