Utah is the 25th highest ranked state when it comes to total CO2 emissions, with the state consuming enough electricity to account for 21,986,967,066.64 kilograms of CO2 emissions per year. This total also equals a ranking of 10th worst in the country for pollution per capita. Coal makes up 51.39% of the fuel sources used for electricity generation in Utah. Natural Gas and Solar make up the next highest amounts of fuel used at 28.89% and 13.66% of total electricity generation, respectively. Utah has 45 power plants, which is the 24th most in the country and 17th most when counting power plants per resident.

Utah has 35 out of 48 electricity providers reporting that they offer net metering to residents with personal solar panels. At the state level, Utah has restricted net metering and feed in tariff regulations.

The average energy loss for electricity companies in Utah is 2.16%. This includes data from 12 companies, including Provo City Utilities, St George Utilities, and Lehi City Power. For comparison, the countrywide average energy loss is 2.43%. Utah has a rank of 13th best in the United States for energy loss.

Encouraging private citizens to install solar panels can be a challenge due to high initial costs. Governments can help by issuing rebates and tax breaks to their citizens. Utah has a tax credit of either over $2000 or over 20% of the cost of solar panel purchases. The state offers no rebates to consumers who are purchasing private solar. Utah offers no property tax exemptions to homeowners who purchase private solar panels, making it less attractive for consumers to do so. The state offers sales tax exemptions, but they are highly restricted, making it hard for some residents to qualify.

Whether a consumer is able to easily find electricity plans with renewable fuel sources is partially determined by state level initiatives. States that have Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) have requirements in place for all electric companies who operate in the state. These standards require that a percentage of electricity must be generated using green energy. Utah currently only has limited or optional standards established for electricity generators to follow. Additionally, there are currently no low income solar programs to assist low income families to install solar panels.
