Solar Panels in Florida are a natural fit for the “Sunshine State.” With over 230 sunny days annually, Florida ranks among the top states for solar potential. Rising electricity bills and favorable net metering make solar panels a wise choice for homeowners.
Cost of solar panels in Florida
A home solar system in Florida typically costs $12,000 to $21,000 before incentives. Price per watt averages $2.4–2.7, slightly below the national average. For a household using 1,100–1,400 kWh per month, a 6–8 kW system is common.
Incentives and programs
While Florida does not offer a state tax credit, homeowners benefit from:
- Federal Solar Tax Credit (30%).
- Property tax exemption for the added value of solar.
- Sales tax exemption, saving an additional 6%.
