One accountable team handles your design, permits, installation and service.
Solar in Glendale
For most Glendale homeowners, yes. Long, hot summers keep the AC running for months, and Arizona still offers a state tax credit plus property and sales tax exemptions. Glendale is split between APS and SRP, and the two credit exported solar very differently, so we design around the utility and plan your home is actually on.
APS export rate for applications from September 2026 to August 2027. 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
Glendale is split between two utilities, and each credits exported solar differently. Here's how they compare for new customers in 2026.
APS credits exported solar at a rate the Arizona Corporation Commission approves each year, about 5.55 cents per kWh for applications from September 2026 to August 2027. The rate in place when you apply is locked for 10 years.
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.
Utility lines in Glendale don't follow neighborhood names, so we check your bill and price plan before we design anything. With either utility, solar you use as it's produced is worth the most.
Export rates as published in October 2026. Rates change, so we confirm the current rate for your home in your quote.
Incentives
Glendale 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 in Maricopa County.
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
On APS or SRP, the solar you store and use in the evening is worth more than the solar you export, and a battery keeps essentials running when monsoon storms knock out power.
Run your home on stored solar during evening hours, when time-of-use rates are highest.
Keep essentials running during summer monsoon 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 APS or SRP bills, roof and goals, then design a system sized to how your home actually uses power.
We handle permits with the City of Glendale, plus HOA paperwork and your utility interconnection application.
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 in neighborhoods throughout Glendale, from the historic downtown to the north end.

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 APS and SRP, batteries, incentives, HOAs and property taxes in Glendale.
For most homeowners, yes. Glendale's long cooling season makes solar a strong fit, and Arizona still offers a 25% state tax credit up to $1,000 plus property and sales tax exemptions. The best value comes from a system sized to your own use, often with a battery.
It depends on your address. Glendale is split between APS and SRP, and neighbors on the same street can have different utilities. We confirm yours and your price plan from your bill before we design your system.
It's not required, but it often pays off, especially on SRP. APS credits exported solar at about 5.55 cents per kWh and SRP at 1.87 cents for new customers, both well below what you pay for power. A battery also keeps essentials running during monsoon 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.
Arizona offers a state income tax credit of 25% of the cost of a residential solar energy device, up to $1,000, claimed on Arizona Form 310. Solar on your home is also exempt from property tax assessments, and qualifying equipment and installation are exempt from state sales tax. Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
No. Arizona law exempts residential solar from property tax assessments in Maricopa County.
No. Arizona law (A.R.S. §33-1816) bars HOAs from prohibiting rooftop solar. They can set reasonable placement rules, as long as those rules don't block the installation or significantly hurt performance. We prepare the HOA submittal for you.
