Incentives

有什么太阳能激励措施?

The average gross price of a whole home solar installation in Florida is $13,000. 在那样的投资水平上, 有13个面板的系统可以产生11个面板,826千瓦时的电力. 你的投资或多或少取决于你的目标. 以帮助减少前期成本, federal, state, and local incentives can bring the price you pay down by thousands of dollars. Your cost-saving options in the Sunshine State include the state net metering program, 免除国家财产税和销售税, 联邦太阳能税收抵免(到2035年有效). Importantly, check with a financial advisor to ensure your eligibility for solar incentives.

Net metering

Net metering 是一种计费机制. If your solar system produces an extra kWh that your home does not consume at any given point, 这些电被送到电网,并被你的智能电表跟踪.

On the other hand, 十大网赌靠谱网址平台在你需要的时候为你的家供电, 比如在阴天或晚上. The data from your smart meter is accounted for at the end of each billing period, and the kWh delivered to you minus the kWh your system sent to the grid is the “net” usage you will be charged for. If the net usage is a negative number, then you have kWh saved to use next month. 如果净使用量为正数,则按该千瓦时收费. 

Under Florida net metering,你只会按你的净能源使用量收费.

Tax exemptions

The state of Florida offers property and sales tax exemptions for solar purchases. 

联邦太阳能税收抵免

The 联邦太阳能税收抵免, 也称为投资税收抵免(ITC), 能否将家用太阳能电池板系统的成本降低30%. The ITC is structured to allow solar owners across the country to deduct a percentage of their solar system’s cost from their federal taxes. In Florida, this can bring the average price of solar down by almost $3,400. 像大多数太阳能激励措施一样,ITC不会永远持续下去. 以下概述了截至2023年的ITC结构和时间表:

  • 2022-2032: 30 percent
  • 2033: 26 percent
  • 2034: 22 percent
  • 2035年:住宅系统的ITC结束

Please be sure to speak with your financial advisor, and check the IRS website here: 家庭能源税收抵免|美国国税局(irs.gov). Learn more about 佛罗里达州太阳能激励措施

独立储能

Under the 减少通货膨胀法, 住宅存储系统, 无论是否与太阳能配对, 也有资格享受30%的税收抵免吗. Importantly, standalone storage systems must be over 3 kWh in size to qualify.

关于净计量要知道些什么

Net metering is a billing structure that enables solar owners to send excess energy produced by their solar panel systems back to the electric grid. This excess energy minus the energy delivered to you by Tampa Electric is the “net,” or difference. 太阳能电池板通常在阳光下产生更多的电力, 在夏季的几个月里,白天的时间更少. Accordingly, net metering allows solar owners to “bank” their excess solar production for later use when their home’s energy demands exceed their solar system’s production. Under net metering, solar owners can essentially use the grid to “store” their excess energy and, ultimately, 提高太阳能投资的价值

十大网赌靠谱网址平台的净计量账单

Under Florida net metering,你只会按你的净能源使用量收费: the number of kWh delivered to you by Tampa Electric minus the number of kWh your system sent to the grid. 您的账单将反映的是发送的千瓦时减去接收的千瓦时. 如果这个数是负数, this means you pushed more kWh to the grid than Tampa Electric delivered to you. 在该计费期内将不收取千瓦时费用, and the difference will be “banked” for use next month or when you need it. 如果“净”是一个正数,你要为这个千瓦时付费. 

一旦你的认证太阳能装置连接到电网, 十大网赌靠谱网址平台确保您的仪表和账单设置为净仪表. Your monthly statement will include a Total Used column with the following:

  • kWh Delivered: the kilowatt-hours of electricity delivered to your home from the Tampa Electric grid.
  • kWh Received: the kilowatt-hours of electricity Tampa Electric received from your solar panel system. 

用能源管理系统监控你的使用情况

能源管理系统 提供对家庭整个能源系统的洞察. Understanding your home’s electrification allows you more control over your usage and, ultimately, what you pay for it.

Net metering is a billing function that compensates customers for any surplus power they feed back to the grid from their solar or other renewable energy system.

Net Metering

  1. Solar Panels – Throughout the day, a solar power system transforms sunlight into electrical energy. An inverter converts this electrical energy from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) to ensure its safe and effective use in residential or commercial settings.
  2. Electricity -首先在家里或公司使用太阳能, then excess electricity is sent to your battery storage (if applicable) or to the electric grid. When solar power is not available or is insufficient to meet your needs, some or all of the electricity you consume will be supplied by Tampa Electric.
  3. Meter - A smart meter measures how much electricity you consume from Tampa Electric and how much you send to the grid. 
  4. Net Metering - Your monthly bill is the “net” of what’s produced and what’s consumed. You will see credits for excess electricity sent to the grid and charges for the electricity flowing into your home from the grid. Each month, 你要对“净”差额负责, plus a basic service charge that covers the cost of providing service to your location.

为你的家庭提供太阳能以外的电力

历史上,大多数家庭都依赖多种能源, but electric-powered appliances are increasingly beneficial for household safety, the environment, and financial savings. Replacing gas-powered appliances with electric alternatives enhances energy efficiency, and enables the use of renewable energy produced by the grid or your own solar panel system
