Colorado Springs FAQs
As of 2022, a 9-kilowatt (KW) SunPower solar panel system costs an average of $38,000 if you’re a Freedom Solar customer. This cost includes everything from equipment, labor, project management costs such as permitting, inspections, and homeowners associations (HOA) approvals.
Fortunately, there are ways to further lower your total cost through federal incentives and local rebates and incentives. Read our blog on how much solar panels cost in Colorado Springs for more information.
Colorado sees over 300 sunny days per year, making it a great place for going solar.
Colorado is also one of the first states in the U.S. to enact a Renewable Energy Standard, meaning it has committed to 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050. The state is more than accepting of solar-generated power as well as other forms of renewable energy.
Unfortunately, Colorado does not offer a statewide solar tax credit, but there is a federal one you can easily benefit from. The solar investment tax credit (ITC) provides 30% savings off of your solar project’s total cost if installed by the end of 2032. Savings will decrease to 26% in 2033.
According to Zillow, solar panels increase a home’s price by about 4.1%, and provide a much higher return on investment (ROI) than the majority of other home improvement projects.
However, you won’t have to pay higher property taxes just because your home value increased. Colorado offers a property tax exemption for those who invest in a commercial or a home solar installation.
A 9-kW SunPower solar panel system from Freedom Solar will cost you an average of $38,000 as of 2021. So, a 10-KW system will cost slightly more than that.
It’s important to note that SunPower offers the most efficient solar panels on the market, so the number of panels you need may be slightly less than you think.
The monthly cost of solar depends on the type of system you have and the efficiency of your panels. The less efficient your panels are, the more you’ll have to pay your utility company to fill your home electricity needs.
As for your investment, your monthly payments are dependent on your unique payment plan. Freedom Solar requires zero down, and our service team will create a financial plan that works best with your budget.
Solar panels are extremely durable, with an average lifespan of 25 years. This is the same length as Freedom Solar’s lifetime warranty. Additionally, the average solar panel loses around 0.8% of its output each year, but this can be extended if you properly maintain your panels.
A Tesla Powerwall costs about $18,000 factoring in various equipment, including the Powerall, Gateway, and other hardware. However, there may be additional costs related to installation, labor, and financing depending on your situation.
Additionally, Tesla Powerwalls are eligible for local rebates and incentives as well as the federal solar investment tax credit (ITC), which can save you up to 30% on your total project cost.
No, solar panel companies do not own your roof if you purchase a solar panel system from them. However, solar panel leasing is a slightly different story. Though a leasing company won’t own your roof, you’ll have less control over it.
These companies have a goal of maximizing their investment on your property, so they have little regard to curb appeal, general appearance, and the number of panels placed on your roof.

Home Battery Backup Systems
Backup power is a system that connects to electricity sources, typically solar panels and the electric grid, to store excess power and return it to your home when you need it, generally because of a power outage during an emergency. In most cases, your backup power supply will come from a generator or a battery. Today’s solar batteries are also intelligent energy management systems that can optimize your home’s energy usage to take advantage of utility time-of-use plans or to ensure that your electric car is charged with solar power.
