Honest numbers.
No dealer markup.
Starting-from pricing for every service we install, published openly. Because the first tool for taking advantage of a homeowner is hiding the price.
Every number below is what Utah homeowners actually pay, fully installed. Equipment, transfer switch where applicable, permits, inspection, concrete pad or wall mount, commissioning. No surprise add-ons on install day.
Single-battery critical-loads backup (13.5 kWh). Covers fridge, internet, well pump, and essential circuits for 18–36 hours. Whole-home dual-battery from $22,000. $2,000 Wattsmart rebate per battery applied directly to quote.
Home Backup details14kW natural-gas standby with automatic transfer switch. 22kW whole-home units from $12,000. Includes concrete pad, gas tie-in coordination, permit, inspection, and startup.
Generator detailsAC-coupled battery retrofit for existing solar. Makes your panels actually useful during outages. Includes gateway, breakers, permit, and commissioning. Eligible for $2,000 Wattsmart rebate.
Add-Battery detailsLevel 2 home charging, 40A or 50A circuit. Clean conduit runs, correct load calcs, permitted and inspected. Most Wasatch Front installs complete in 3–6 hours. 30C tax credit (up to $1,000) available through June 30, 2026.
EV Charger detailsStandby generators for small commercial — offices, clinics, restaurants, cold storage. Sized to your load study, code-compliant install, permit and inspection handled. Most projects: $25,000–$120,000.
Commercial detailsComplete off-grid power for rural cabins, well-fed properties, or remote builds. Solar + battery + generator triad, sized for year-round independence. Typical range $38,000–$120,000 depending on load and autonomy target.
Off-Grid detailsWattsmart Battery Program.
$2,000 per battery.
We apply the $2,000-per-battery Wattsmart rebate directly to your project cost — it never lands in our pocket. On a dual-battery install that’s $4,000 off the quote. There is no equivalent rebate for standby generators.
In exchange, RMP can discharge a small portion of your battery during peak-demand events. It still leaves more than enough stored energy for your own backup needs.
Every number includes everything.
Battery, generator,
or charger unit.
We buy direct from the distributor — not through a dealer network that skims a margin. That savings lands on your quote.
All electrical work,
in-house.
Transfer switch, conduit runs, panel work, gas coordination, commissioning. No subcontracted crews we cannot vouch for.
City permit,
final inspection,
interconnection.
You never visit city hall. You never chase an inspector. Every BYOP project lands with a signed permit and a passing inspection.
What might push a quote higher.
- Panel upgrade needed. If your existing panel is 100A or has no room for new breakers, we coordinate a 200A upgrade. Adds roughly $2,500–$4,500.
- Trenching for long runs. Generator or detached-structure installs with 50+ feet between equipment and panel need trenched conduit. Adds $1,000–$3,500 depending on length and surface.
- New gas line for generator. If gas doesn’t reach the generator location, coordinating a new line from your meter adds $800–$2,500 depending on distance.
- Propane tank install. Rural properties without natural-gas service need a 500-gallon propane tank. $2,500–$4,000 including first fill and concrete pad.
- Larger-than-standard system. Dual-battery stacks, multiple generators, or off-grid configs are always quoted as custom projects.
Every one of these is discussed before the quote is finalized — never surprise-billed on install day.
Pricing FAQ.
Why does BYOP publish pricing when most contractors don’t?
Because hiding pricing is how the big solar and dealer networks get away with inflating it. If you know a Tesla Powerwall installed in Utah should be $14,000 to $18,000, you cannot be talked into paying $28,000. Transparent starting-from pricing is the single biggest way we shift leverage back to the homeowner.
What is included in these starting-from prices?
Every quote from BYOP includes the equipment, transfer switch where applicable, all electrical labor, permits, inspections, concrete pad or wall mount, commissioning, and startup. There are no surprise add-ons on install day. If the job turns out to be bigger than expected, that is a change-order conversation — not a silent upsell.
Why do you show ranges instead of a single price?
Because your house is not everyone else’s house. A single battery install in a new home with a 200A panel and gas next to the meter is fast and clean — the low end of the range. The same battery in a 1970s home with a 100A panel, cramped basement, and tricky conduit run costs more to install. We tell you the actual number after a free site visit.
Do you finance?
We do not offer dealer financing or leases. Dealer financing adds hidden markups (often 15–25%) that get quietly baked into the price you are quoted. If you need financing, we recommend a home-equity line of credit or a personal loan from your bank — rates are dramatically better and you keep ownership of the equipment from day one.
How does the Wattsmart rebate change these prices?
Rocky Mountain Power pays $2,000 per qualifying battery installed. We apply that rebate directly to your project cost — it never lands in our pocket. So a single-battery system with a $16,000 starting price effectively costs you $14,000 after the Wattsmart rebate clears.
