Question 1

How much can I save on my FPL bill with solar panels in Palm Beach County?

Accepted Answer

Actual savings depend on your system size, roof characteristics, FPL rate plan, and energy usage. FPL's net metering program credits excess monthly production at the retail rate; unused annual credits at the year-end true-up are paid at the average generation cost, not the retail rate. FPL also generally limits system sizing to less than 115% of annual consumption. Your Palm Beach Solar proposal will include a site-specific savings estimate and 25-year production model based on your actual FPL bills.
