  In the pursuit of sustainable and cost-effective energy solutions, solar power has emerged as a leading contender. Among the various benefits of solar energy, net metering stands out as a valuable tool for maximizing the return on investment from your solar system. Solar net meter installation allows you to generate electricity from the sun while seamlessly connecting to the grid and even earning credits for surplus energy production. In this article, we will explore the concept of solar net metering and provide a comprehensive guide to its installation process, empowering you to embrace energy independence. Understanding Solar Net Metering : Solar net metering is a billing arrangement that enables solar energy system owners to offset their electricity costs by feeding surplus energy back into the grid. When your solar panels produce more electricity than your consumption, the excess energy is sent back to the grid, and you receive credits for it. These credits can then be utili...

  Governor DeSantis Vetoes HB 741 Since Governor DeSantis vetoed HB 741 on April 27, 2022, the saga seems to be over. The Sunshine State will continue to use net metering, which is fantastic news for all Floridians. The Governor's response, when asked why he rejected the bill, was as follows: "Given that customers are seeing substantial price hikes for food and gas, as well as mounting bills, and given that the United States is experiencing its worst inflation in 40 years, the state of Florida shouldn't add to the financial hardship that our citizens are going through," the Florida legislature has said. Earlier in 2023, if Governor DeSantis had signed the legislation, it would have come into force. Payments to solar consumers would have dropped from a high retail rate to a low wholesale rate, lengthening the time it would have taken to demonstrate any return from energy savings. Payment rates for solar users were expected to decrease as a result of the phase-out by 50...

  By  Ajay Blue Edge Post date All You Need to Know About Net Metering Solar System Net metering  solar system is a great way to reduce energy costs and save some money. It’s also an excellent solution for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint and transition to renewable energy. But what exactly is net metering, and how does it work? Let’s take a look at the basics of net metering solar systems in Florida. What is Net Metering Solar System? It is a process in which customers’ excess electricity produced by their solar panels are sent back into the utility grid. In return, they receive credits against their regular electricity bill that they can use at another time or apply as cash back on their utility bills. This allows consumers to generate their own electricity while still being connected to the public electrical grid, allowing them to consume electricity when needed without having to pay for it up front. How Does it Work? It’s quite simple – with net metering...

By  Ajay Blue Edge Businesses in Florida can benefit significantly from installing a new solar energy system on their commercial property. The advantages of a new solar installment on your business are: Tax credits Increases your ROI Provides stable power Improves the environment Increases the property value Enhances business reputation Tax credits for solar energy installations The investment tax credit ( ITC ), also known as the federal solar tax credit, allows you to deduct 26 percent of the cost of installing a solar energy system from your federal taxes, with no limit on the amount you can deduct. According to the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency ( DSIRE ), if you start a new installation on your commercial property before December 31, 2022, you will be eligible for the 26 percent tax credit. After that date, the credit will be reduced to 22 percent until 12/31/2024, when it will be reduced to only 10 percent. There has never been a better time to tak...

By  Alvin Pacot Post date When most people talk about energy independence, they’re usually talking about major infrastructure for cities, states, and countries. But individuals can also harness energy independence. Energy independence can also refer to households, most of which are tethered to their local and regional electrical grids. Here, the question shifts to how a home or office can keep the power going when the grid, or components of it, fails. The good news is that uninterrupted energy access is possible and, in fact, happening. Solar Energy Is Here Power from the sun has now been harnessed for years, and ongoing research makes this source increasingly efficient. Solar power is renewable, i.e. it cannot be exhausted through intensive consumption. Installed on the roof of a house, solar panels, made primarily from silicon, transform photons radiated from the sun into direct current (DC). Passing through an inverter, the direct current becomes alternating current (AC) which, ...

  By  Alvin Pacot Post date Hurricane season is an anxious time for people living in zones frequently hit by tropical storms, including Florida. High winds and flooding associated with these tempests produce devastation from which communities may take months to recover. While homeowners do their best to secure their property, their efforts are not always successful. Even the most exhaustive preparations can not prevent widespread power failure. Because of this, relying on the grid, and its eventual restoration results in disruption to the lives of many families. Still, those who opt for solar energy can protect themselves from the worst effects of these storm-induced power outages. How Solar Energy Works in a Home Solar panels, most often installed on a roof, absorb photons from the sun’s rays into their PV (photovoltaic) cells. These cells themselves contain internal electrical fields that generate the flow of electricity. This flow is direct current (DC) and must go through ...
