Missouri Solar Panel Statistics
According to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, Missouri is one of the best places in the world for solar panel systems. Consider the following statistics:
- Missouri has more than 200 sunny days per year for an average of 0.5 to 5 kilowatt-hours per square meter per day. Missouri’s solar resources surpass Germany’s, which leads the world in solar energy production on less than 3 kWh per square meter per day.
- The cost of electricity in Missouri has risen recently to 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, making the need for renewable energy sources more critical.
- The federal government provides up to a 30% federal tax credit for new solar panel installations.
- Three of the leading utilities in Missouri provide a $500/kW rebate, and a 30% federal tax credit means you get back nearly a third of your investment in less than a year.
- Solar increases home value by nearly $12,000, but your property tax stays the same.

Solar Energy Storage & Backup Power Solutions
Many Wentzville homeowners don’t know that they can do more than harvest energy from the sun. There are also options to store that energy through solar batteries and generators. With these tools in your Wentzville home, you can enjoy access to the energy you get from the sun whenever you need it.
Solar batteries allow you to store some of the energy you harvest and then use them to remove your reliance on the utility company, such as during a power outage or overnight. They can also let you offset your family’s use during high-demand periods.
Solar-powered Generac generators provide backup energy during any power outage. They can be set up to kick in automatically when the power goes out, so you never lose energy and can continue running your electronics and appliances.
