Solar Quotes in Phoenix, AZ
If APS or SRP is your utility
- APS buys the solar energy you don't use. You or your installer choose a buyback rider during the application: the Resource Comparison Proxy (RCP) export rate or Renewable Energy Net Billing (EPR-2), and you can change it later.

- APS's RCP rider sets the export rate at $0.05554 per kWh for the tranche running September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027. A customer's initial RCP rate applies for 10 years from interconnection. Credits roll forward monthly, and after the December bill a check is issued if remaining credits exceed $25.

- SRP's published price plans (prices effective with the November 2025 billing cycle) include customer-generation export plans such as E-13 and E-14, which credit all kWh delivered to SRP at $0.0345 per kWh at the end of each billing cycle. SRP states the export credit rate is subject to change. Source: https://www.srpnet.com/assets/srpnet/pdf/price-plans/FY26/2025%20Ratebook%20V2-3.pdf (accessed 2026-10-20)
A note on the federal tax credit
The federal residential clean energy credit (25D) doesn't apply to expenditures made after December 31, 2025. The IRS treats an expenditure as made when installation is completed.
