Orlando combines Florida's legendary sunshine with favorable utility policies through the Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC), a municipal utility that offers competitive rates and full retail net metering for solar customers.
As a municipal utility, OUC operates independently from Florida's investor-owned utilities and has maintained supportive solar policies. The combination of full retail net metering, Florida's sales tax exemption, and property tax exemption makes Orlando one of the most attractive markets for solar in Central Florida.
With installation costs around $11,600 after the federal tax credit, annual savings of approximately $1,400, and an 8-year payback period, Orlando homeowners benefit from a strong solar value proposition. The city's growing population and rising electricity demand make solar an increasingly smart investment.
