Installers, contractors and solar service companies whose service area covers Florida.
Florida earns the Sunshine State name on paper, too: more than 22 gigawatts of solar are installed statewide, third in the nation behind only California and Texas, and the total keeps climbing as big solar farms and rooftop systems go up side by side. For homeowners, the draw is simple — year-round sun and heavy air-conditioning loads mean a well-sized system offsets a lot of grid power, month after month.
Florida's big investor-owned utilities are required to offer net metering: power you send to the grid earns kilowatt-hour credits at the full retail rate, carried forward for up to 12 months, and any credits left at the end of the year are paid out at the utility's avoided-cost rate. You keep ownership of your system's renewable energy credits, too. Two state tax breaks sweeten the math further — solar equipment is exempt from state sales tax, and a 100% property tax exemption means the value your panels add to your home is never taxed.
The installers below serve homeowners across Florida. Ask each one how they size systems against your summer cooling load and your utility's exact net metering paperwork — municipal and co-op utilities run their own versions — and browse our solar energy resources for guides on hurricane-rated mounting, batteries for outage protection, and reading a quote.
