Summary
Florida has emerged as a national solar leader, surpassing California in large-scale solar capacity in 2024 and ranking second in residential solar since 2019.
Despite state leadership opposing climate action, favorable policies and abundant sunshine have driven growth.
The Inflation Reduction Act’s tax credits and streamlined permitting for small solar projects have made solar more accessible and affordable.
Utilities like Florida Power & Light have capitalized on easy permitting, while grassroots support remains strong, with 84% of voters backing net metering to lower costs.
