    Cut Your Duke Energy Bill for Good.

    Oak Ridge is a tight-knit South Orlando community where homeowners are increasingly turning to solar to escape rising Duke Energy rates. Castaways Energy brings local expertise, premium equipment, and transparent pricing to every Oak Ridge project — no out-of-state sales teams, no bait-and-switch.

    Residential Solar Services in Oak Ridge

    Our Oak Ridge solar installations include custom-sized rooftop systems, battery storage integration, EV charging, and full monitoring setup. We’re NABCEP-certified, BBB A+ rated, and certified by Enphase, Tesla, REC, and Maxeon. Every system we design is built around your actual energy usage — not a one-size-fits-all package.

    Solar Incentives in Oak Ridge, FL

    Oak Ridge homeowners can access the federal Investment Tax Credit (currently 30% of system cost), Florida’s solar equipment sales tax exemption, property tax protection on added home value, and net metering credits through Duke Energy. We identify every applicable incentive before your installation begins.

    Solar Financing for Oak Ridge Homeowners

    We offer $0-down solar loan options, battery-inclusive financing, and lease structures for Oak Ridge homeowners who want predictable monthly costs. Many customers find their loan payment is close to or less than what they were paying Duke Energy monthly.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Solar in Oak Ridge

    Yes. Oak Ridge is primarily served by Duke Energy, one of Florida’s larger investor-owned utilities. Duke Energy rates have increased consistently over recent years, making solar ROI more compelling with each passing cycle.

    The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows eligible homeowners to deduct 30% of their solar system cost from their federal taxes. This is a dollar-for-dollar credit — not a deduction — and significantly reduces net system cost.

    We assess roof condition during your free consultation. If your roof needs attention before installation, we’ll let you know upfront — we’d rather give you honest guidance than rush a project.

    Under net metering, your system sends excess solar energy to the Duke Energy grid and you receive bill credits in return. During low-production months, those credits offset your usage from the grid.

    It’s not required, but it’s increasingly popular in South Orlando neighborhoods where storm outages are common. Battery storage lets your home run independently of the grid when Duke Energy goes down.

    Yes. We manage the entire permitting process with Orange County and Duke Energy on your behalf. You don’t need to deal with any paperwork.

    A loan lets you own the system and claim all tax credits and incentives. A lease means you pay a fixed monthly amount to use the system — simpler, but you don’t own the equipment. We walk you through both options at your consultation.
