Solar in Overland Park: your utility and the rules

Homes in Overland Park are served by Evergy Kansas Metro, an investor owned utility. Evergy Kansas Metro offers net metering under its Schedule NM tariff, which nets the power your home uses against the power your panels send to the grid each billing period and credits any extra at Evergy's monthly system average cost of energy, which Evergy describes as a wholesale rate. Evergy requires an approved interconnection application before a system is turned on, and the City of Overland Park requires a permit to install solar panels, which is applied for through ePLACE, the city's online permitting system.

State law: Net Metering and Easy Connection Act, K.S.A. 66-1263 through 66-1271.

Common questions in Overland Park

What electric company serves Overland Park, Kansas?

Evergy Kansas Metro, an investor owned utility, serves Overland Park. Evergy's own rate filing announcements name Overland Park as part of the Evergy Kansas Metro service area.

How does Evergy net metering work in Overland Park?

Each billing period, Evergy offsets the power your system sends to the grid against the power you use. If you send more than you use, the extra kilowatt hours are credited at Evergy's monthly system average cost of energy, which Evergy describes as a wholesale rate, and Evergy says unused credit expires after 12 months. If you are on an Evergy time of use plan, the netting is done separately for each time period.

Do I need a permit to put solar panels on my house in Overland Park?

Yes. The City of Overland Park says a permit is required to install solar panels, and permits are applied for through ePLACE, the city's online permitting system. The city also requires contractors to hold an active Johnson County contractor's license to receive a building permit.

Is there still a federal tax credit for home solar?

The federal residential clean energy credit, section 25D, ended for home solar expenditures made after December 31, 2025, under the law signed July 4, 2025. The IRS treats the expenditure as made when installation is completed, so a system completed in 2026 does not qualify even if it was paid for earlier.
