Icon Power designs and installs home solar and battery storage for homeowners in Buckeye, one of the fastest-growing cities in Arizona.
One accountable team handles your design, permits, installation and service.
Solar in Buckeye
For most Buckeye homeowners, yes. West Valley summers are long and hot, and many Buckeye homes are newer builds with open roof space. Buckeye homes are served by SRP or APS depending on the address, and that shapes how we size your system.
SRP export rate for new E-16 and E-28 solar customers as of May 2026. Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
Your utility
Neither SRP nor APS credits exported solar one-for-one, so the solar you use at home, or store in a battery, is worth the most.
SRP credits energy you export at a rate it resets each May. For new solar customers on its E-16 and E-28 plans, that's 1.87 cents per kWh as of May 2026, well below what you pay for power. Solar you use at home, or store in a battery, is where the savings come from.
APS credits exported solar at an export rate the Arizona Corporation Commission approves each year. The rate in place when you apply to connect is locked for 10 years. Most APS solar homes use a time-of-use plan, where a battery can cover the evening peak.
The logo on your electric bill tells you which utility you have. We confirm it, and the current export rate, before we design your system.
Export rates as published in October 2026. Rates change, so we confirm the current rate for your home in your quote.
Incentives
Buckeye homeowners get Arizona's state solar incentives. Here's what's still available in 2026.
Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
Claim 25% of the cost of a solar energy device on your home, up to $1,000, with Arizona Form 310. Unused credit can carry forward for up to five years.
Under A.R.S. §42-11054, solar on your home adds no value for property tax purposes, so your Maricopa County assessment doesn't go up.
Qualifying solar equipment and installation are exempt from Arizona's transaction privilege tax (A.R.S. §42-5061 and §42-5075).
The federal residential solar credit (Section 25D) ended for homeowner-purchased systems on December 31, 2025. If you'd rather not pay upfront, ask about our no-upfront-cost monthly battery program.
Battery storage
With exports credited below what you pay for power, storing your own solar for the evening is often worth more than sending it back.
Run your home on stored solar in the evening instead of exporting it at a low rate.
Keep the fridge, lights and AC essentials running during summer outages.
If your home is on SRP, the SRP Battery Partner program pays $55 per average kW in bill credits each summer and winter season for letting SRP draw on your battery during peak events.
How it works
We review your SRP or APS bills, roof and goals, then design a system sized to how your home actually uses power.
We handle City of Buckeye permits, HOA architectural review and your interconnection application with SRP or APS.
One accountable team installs your system and supports it after turn-on.
After the inspection, your utility grants permission to operate (PTO), and we help you set up monitoring.
Service area
We install home solar and batteries across Buckeye's master-planned communities and the rest of the West Valley.

See what our customers are saying
"I have to say that The Hydra Crew from Icon Power did an absolutely amazing job with our solar installation. They are very friendly and extremely hard workers with attention to detail... they made the magic happen. It's like artwork. They were very clean throughout the process and the product and service they provided is top notch."
"Jordan and his team made the process super easy. They reconfigured some of our existing solar and they added a Tesla battery so we could maximize our utility savings. They handled all the permits... If you are on the fence about solar or a battery — schedule a meeting and they will show you the numbers. You won't regret it."
"Icon showed up within a week with two technicians who were absolutely incredibly awesome!... Icon customer service were top notch and efficient in getting back to me within 24 hours... I am so impressed with Icon Solar that I cannot even express my gratitude... They get 10 stars!"
"This is the 4th solar system I have installed over the years, and Icon Power (Jordan especially) has been Excellent. They were fast, well communicated, instant to respond to any question... I have never experienced such a great install that was very quick, and their lease-to-own option was a great deal reducing the cost."
"Polite, Professional, Proficient. From the initial sales contact, complete with full explanation of time line/benefits/cost options to professional, rapid install to frequent timeline updates and onsite checkups, Icon Power provides you, the customer, with the care and attention that truly makes you a part of the entire project."
"It's unusual these days to work with someone who does great work, for a fair price and in a timely manner, but Icon Power does that and more. We needed them to install an EV charging station and couldn't be happier with the results."
"I have done many solar and other home projects in my life time, this by all means was clear, professional, swift and DONE. Definitely a five stars performance... Awesome work. Strongly recommended."
"Cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Ramone and the Hydra crew. Extremely conscientious, knowledgeable and dedicated. Making sure everything was done safely and accurately... We are much safer now than we were before they showed up. Again highly recommended. You will not go wrong."
"Icon Power was great to work with. Shawn and his crew were fabulous for the install. They ensured we had an install done right, the first time, and didn't have ugly silver conduit running across our roof... they worked with me and around my schedule and had us connected and ready for inspections and the PTO quickly!"
Answers on SRP and APS, HOA approvals, batteries and incentives in Buckeye.
For most homeowners, yes. Long West Valley summers make solar a strong fit, and Arizona still offers a 25% state tax credit up to $1,000 plus property and sales tax exemptions. Because utilities pay less for exports than retail, the best value comes from a system sized to your own use.
It depends on your address. Buckeye homes are served by SRP or APS. Check the logo on your electric bill, and we'll confirm your utility before we design your system.
Arizona law doesn't let HOAs prohibit solar energy devices, though they can adopt reasonable rules on placement and appearance. We prepare and submit the architectural review paperwork for you.
You don't need one, but many Buckeye homes benefit. On SRP, a battery stores solar you'd otherwise export at 1.87 cents per kWh and can earn SRP Battery Partner credits. On APS, it covers the evening time-of-use peak. Either way, it keeps essentials running during outages.
Not for a system you buy. The federal residential solar credit (Section 25D) ended for homeowner-purchased systems on December 31, 2025. If your system was installed and operating by then, you claim it for the tax year it was placed in service. Arizona's 25% state credit, up to $1,000, still applies. Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
No. Arizona law exempts residential solar from property tax assessments, so adding solar doesn't raise your home's assessed value for tax purposes.
