Which utility serves you in Dodge County?

Several utilities serve Dodge County, and each sets its own rules for solar credits. We confirm yours by address before we design your system.

Because extra power at the end of a month earns much less than you pay for power, we size systems to use most of the output at home.

• Focus on Energy. Focus on Energy pays $600 per kW, up to $2,400, for homeowners who buy their system, as of November 2026. Leased systems do not qualify.
• Battery rewards. Alliant Energy customers can enroll a FranklinWH or Tesla Powerwall 3 battery in Smart Hours for $100 per kWh, plus $100 per kW each year. See solar rebates and utility rewards.
• Tax breaks. Solar equipment is exempt from Wisconsin sales tax, and the value solar adds to your home is exempt from property tax.

The 30% federal tax credit for homeowner-owned solar ended for systems installed after December 31, 2025. With a lease or prepaid lease, the leasing company can still claim the 30% commercial credit for a limited time and pass the savings to you.

Solar permits in Dodge County

Each city and village issues its own building permits. In Mayville, for example, the city requires separate building and electrical permits. In the towns, the building permit comes from the town under the Wisconsin Uniform Dwelling Code.

Twelve towns, including Ashippun, Fox Lake, Hustisford, Lomira and Rubicon, use the county Land Use Code. There, and within 1,000 feet of a lake or 300 feet of a river or stream, Dodge County Land Resources and Parks may also require a land use permit. Your utility must approve the system before it turns on. We check which permits apply, file them with the utility application, and meet the inspector.

What solar costs in Dodge County

Most Wisconsin homes we install run about $3.00 to $3.30 per watt for a roof-mounted system without a battery, as of October 2026. That range comes from 22 Wisconsin contracts Wolf River Electric signed from June to October 2026. For comparison, EnergySage puts the October 2026 Wisconsin average at $3.04 per watt. Batteries, ground mounts, trenching and panel upgrades add to the price.

The rebate column applies only to systems you buy. See our Wisconsin solar cost guide, solar in Wisconsin, or get a quote for your home.
