Wyoming has very few commercial solar incentives available. However, there are several federal solar incentives, which can significantly reduce the cost of commercial solar projects in Wyoming.
Wyoming Net Metering Program
Wyoming offers a net metering program for commercial systems that are 25 kW or less. This program allows commercial businesses to receive credits for excess energy that their solar system produces. Credits can be applied to future utility bills to alleviate energy costs.

Federal Incentives Available in WY
WY business owners may also take advantage of the federal solar incentives available. When applied, these solar incentives have the potential to significantly reduce the cost of installing a solar system.
- Business Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC)
The Business Energy Investment Tax Credit program allows businesses to claim 30% of their solar system costs as a federal tax credit. Additional tax credits are available depending on the district.
Connect with a local installer to find out if you qualify for additional tax credits.
- Renewable Electricity Production Tax Credit (PTC)
Business owners in Wyoming may take advantage of the federal renewable electricity production tax credit (PTC). This provides an inflation-adjusted per-kilowatt-hour (kWh) tax credit for electricity generated by qualifying energy sources. Projects under 1 megawatt (MW) can receive 1.5 to 2.75 cents/kWh depending on the type of facility. Projects over 1 MW will receive a base tax credit of 0.5 cents/kWh.
Keep in mind that solar project owners cannot claim both the ITC and PTC for the same property. Discuss with a solar installer to understand which tax credit incentive you should claim for your solar system.
- Modified Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS)
Wyoming business owners can take advantage of the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). This program allows business owners to recover some of the costs of solar panel installation through a five-year MACRS schedule.
- Wyoming Commercial Property-Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE)
C-PACE is a financing program that allows approved commercial property owners to borrow money to pay for energy improvements without a large upfront cost coming out of the business' pocket.
- Rural Energy for America Program (REAP Grant)
The USDA's "Rural Energy for America Program," or “REAP,” offers a grant to cover 50% of commercial solar system costs to encourage agricultural and rural businesses to maximize their energy efficiency with solar.
This grant is only available if you own a small business in an area with less than 50,000 in total population.
