Ask Solar Mike
Did you know Utah power rates jumped over 15% in the past year? Many Lake Shore families pay more for electricity. Blackouts happen more too. Plus, over 100 solar firms went bankrupt in 2024-2025. What if your solar company closes in 2026?
The solar market in Utah is tough right now, especially for Lake Shore homes. People face many hard problems. We checked new facts with web searches. Here are seven key pains. We explain them simply.
High Power Bills from Rate Hikes: Rocky Mountain Power got a 4.7% hike approved in April 2025. But with past changes, it's a net 15% jump from last summer. They first asked for 30.6%, then cut to 18.1%, adding $14.28 monthly to average bills starting February 2025. Lake Shore families see bigger bills each month. Costs could go even higher without solar help.
Confusion and Stress Over ITC Deadline: The 30% federal tax credit ends December 31, 2025. Many worry about missing it. SEIA reports show US solar installs fell 7% in Q1 2025 and 24% in Q2. Interest spiked 205% in July 2025 due to ITC fears. Lake Shore folks hurry but fear they won't make it.
Long Wait Times for Installs and Batteries: Battery waits hit 3-6 months in 2025 due to backorders and high demand. Some wait 2-3 months via installers, but delays add weeks. In Lake Shore, this means you might miss the ITC cutoff. Families wait while blackouts happen.
Rising Prices After ITC Ends: Prices may jump 50-100% in 2026 without the credit. Solar costs could rise by one-third. Other firms ask $24,000 to $26,000 for a Tesla Powerwall 3 now. After 2025, it might cost twice as much, hitting Lake Shore wallets hard.
Risk of Solar Companies Going Out of Business: Over 100 solar firms like Sunnova, SunPower, Mosaic, Lumio, iSun, Titan Solar Power, Sunworks, Pink Energy, Solcius, and Vision Solar filed bankruptcy in 2024-2025. High interest rates and policy shifts caused it. They need ITC money to stay open. If they close in 2026, Lake Shore customers lose help and warranties. Projects might not get done.
Wasted Savings and Worthless Warranties: If your company shuts down, your solar gear might break with no one to fix it. Lake Shore homeowners worry about paying extra for repairs after 2025.
Blackouts and Energy Worries: Utah weather causes power outs. Outages are up 16% and last 33% longer. Without good batteries, Lake Shore homes go dark. Delays from other companies make this worse.
These issues make life hard. Lake Shore families worry about money, risks, and missed savings.
Good news! Ask Solar Mike fixes all these pains. We have a special Instant Tax Rebate Program. It makes us the safe pick.
The residential solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) expires on 12/31/2025. To give customers a huge edge, Ask Solar Mike now offers an exclusive "Instant Tax Rebate Program": We provide upfront instant rebates equal to the 30% federal tax credit, deducted straight from the purchase price. This means zero risk for customers—no waiting to file taxes or worry about finishing before the deadline. Ask Solar Mike takes all the risk to make solar and batteries affordable now.
For example, while other Utah solar companies charge $24,000–$26,000 for a Tesla Powerwall 3 install, Ask Solar Mike does it for just $12,000. If the customer's utility is Rocky Mountain Power (common in Utah County), we add a $2,000 Wattsmart rebate, dropping it to $10,000—cheaper than buying just the Powerwall 3 from Tesla alone.
Unlike other solar companies that will likely raise prices dramatically after the ITC ends (potentially going out of business in 2026 due to lost revenue), Ask Solar Mike is structured to be immune: Our Instant Rebate Program absorbs the risk upfront, allowing us to keep prices low and stable long-term without relying on the expiring credit.
We keep wait times short, under 3 months. Our work with Tesla means great quality. Say goodbye to high bills—save up to 97% on power. We stop blackouts with strong setups.
