    Central Florida’s Solar Leader — Right in Your Backyard.

    Orange County is home to over 1.4 million residents, one of the fastest-growing metros in the Southeast, and more than 230 sunny days a year. Whether you live in a lakefront estate in Windermere, a master-planned community in Horizon West, or an established neighborhood in South Orlando, Castaways Energy designs solar systems built for your home, your utility, and your life. We proudly serve these cites in Orange County:

    Solar & Energy Services Across Orange County

    Castaways Energy provides residential rooftop solar installation, battery storage systems, EV charger integration, smart monitoring, and commercial solar solutions throughout Orange County — including Orlando, Windermere, Winter Garden, Dr. Phillips, Hunters Creek, Horizon West, Lake Nona, Belle Isle, Pine Castle, Oak Ridge, Meadow Woods, and surrounding communities. As an Orlando-based company at 1629 Prime Court, we live and work in the same county we serve.

    Orange County Solar Incentives & Utility Programs

    Orange County homeowners are served by OUC (Orlando Utilities Commission) or Duke Energy Florida depending on location. Both utilities participate in Florida’s net metering program, allowing solar customers to earn bill credits for excess energy sent to the grid. Additional incentives include the federal Investment Tax Credit (currently 30% of system cost), Florida’s solar equipment sales tax exemption, and Florida’s property tax exclusion — which prevents your solar upgrade from triggering a property tax increase. Our team maps your specific utility territory and builds your complete incentive picture before any installation begins.

    Solar Financing Options for Orange County Homeowners

    Going solar in Orange County doesn’t require a large upfront payment. Castaways Energy offers $0-down solar loans, battery-inclusive financing, lease options, and cash purchase — each with transparent projections showing your estimated savings versus your current OUC or Duke Energy bill. We help every Orange County homeowner find the financing structure that makes the most sense for their budget and long-term goals.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Solar in Orange County, FL

    Yes. Orange County averages over 230 sunny days per year, and both OUC and Duke Energy rates have increased steadily. Solar systems installed today are designed to produce for 25–30 years, locking in predictable energy costs while utility rates continue to rise.

    Your utility depends on your specific address. OUC serves much of the City of Orlando and surrounding areas including parts of South Orlando and Lake Nona. Duke Energy serves broader Orange County including Winter Garden, Windermere, and Horizon West. Castaways Energy confirms your utility territory during your free consultation.

    Yes. Florida Statute 193.624 exempts the added value of a solar energy system from property tax assessment. This means your home’s value can increase without your property tax bill increasing — a meaningful financial benefit unique to Florida.

    No. Florida law (Section 163.04) prohibits HOAs from preventing solar installations outright. HOAs may regulate placement and aesthetics to some extent, but they cannot deny your right to go solar. Castaways Energy assists with HOA approval documentation for all Orange County communities.

    Central Florida’s hurricane season runs June through November and regularly brings grid outages to Orange County neighborhoods. A battery-backed solar system — such as Tesla Powerwall — keeps essential loads running during outages without fuel or generator noise. Many Orange County homeowners consider battery storage essential for storm preparedness.

    We serve all of Orange County including Orlando, Windermere, Winter Garden, Dr. Phillips, Hunters Creek, Horizon West, Lake Nona, Belle Isle, Pine Castle, Oak Ridge, Sky Lake, Edgewood, Meadow Woods, Southchase, Conway, and surrounding communities. Our office at 1629 Prime Court in Orlando puts us close to every corner of the county.
