Wyoming solar notes
Wyoming caps net metering at 25 kW and pays avoided cost for annual excess, and with cheap coal-based power solar is driven mainly by high-altitude sun and self-use.
Heads up: the 30% federal tax credit for purchased home solar ended Dec 31, 2025. Leased/PPA systems may still qualify through 2027, and Wyoming may offer its own incentives — check locally.
