Thinking about going solar in 2025? There’s never been a better time — especially if you’re a Florida homeowner or business owner. With generous federal tax credits and supportive net metering policies still in place, solar is one of the smartest investments you can make.
At Castaways Energy, we help you take full advantage of 2025 Solar Incentives available to lower your upfront costs and boost your long-term savings.
1. 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit (ITC)
The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) remains the single most valuable solar incentive nationwide. In 2025, this federal credit lets you:
-
Deduct 30% of your system cost from your federal taxes
-
Include solar panels, batteries, labor, and permitting
-
Roll over unused credits to future tax years
💡 Example: A $20,000 solar system would earn you a $6,000 tax credit.
2. Net Metering = Big Utility Savings
Florida has a statewide net metering policy, which allows you to:
-
Export excess solar energy to the grid
-
Earn full retail credit for that electricity
-
Use those credits to offset future electric bills
This makes solar in Florida especially cost-effective — your monthly utility bills can drop to near $0, particularly during peak production months.
3. Property Tax Exemption
Florida offers a 100% property tax exemption for the added value your solar system brings. That means:
-
You won’t pay increased property taxes after installation
-
Your home value increases — without higher assessments
This makes solar a smart upgrade for both your energy bills and your resale value.
4. Sales Tax Exemption on Solar Equipment
You’ll also save 6% instantly on your system thanks to Florida’s:
-
Sales tax exemption on all solar equipment
-
Automatically applied — no forms needed
Between sales tax, property tax, and federal incentives, you’re cutting thousands off the total cost of going solar.
5. Battery Storage Now Qualifies for Incentives Too
Planning to add a Tesla Powerwall or another battery system? In 2025:
-
The federal 30% tax credit also applies to batteries
-
Castaways Energy installs battery-ready systems now or in the future
-
Battery storage allows you to store solar power for night use or backup during storms
That’s peace of mind and long-term control over your energy.
