Florida Solar Tax Incentives & Credits

Power That Never Quits

Florida remains one of the smartest places in the country to go solar. State property tax and sales tax exemptions keep costs down, and every project starts with a free energy audit to size your system and your savings.

Commercial Solar Still Going Strong Through 2027

Businesses, farms, and solar leases (under Section 48E) still qualify for a 30% federal tax credit through December 31, 2027, as long as installation begins by July 4, 2026. Qualifies for:
  • Commercial buildings
  • Agricultural operations
  • Third-party-owned systems (e.g., leases, PPAs)

Foreign-Entity Restrictions (FEOC Rules): Domestic Content Requirements Start 2026

Beginning in 2026, new commercial systems must meet domestic sourcing thresholds to remain eligible for tax credits. Projects using parts from Foreign Entities of Concern (e.g. China, Russia, Iran, North Korea) may be disqualified.

  • 40% U.S. content required in 2026
  • Increases to 60% by 2030

Tampa Solar has been excellent to work with since the beginning when we had our panels installed back in 2020, then we added power walls later and again everything went perfectly. When I have questions they are always promptly answered and if a tech is required to come to our home for the problem they are here in short order. I met Preston today for the first time and he was very knowledgeable about our system and corrected the issue that was on Tesla promptly. Even the county inspector that was here for our original install praised the company for being the best he's seen in Citrus County. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for all your solar power needs!

I’ve been using Tampa Bay Solar for almost 10 years now, and I’ve always been very happy with their work. I recently had to replace my roof because of its age, so I needed to have my PV panels removed and then reinstalled once the new roof was completed. As usual, Tampa Bay Solar did an excellent job. They were professional, took care of everything, and paid attention to the details. Their work has always gone above and beyond what I’ve expected, and this job was no different. After nearly 10 years of dealing with them, I can honestly say they’re a company I trust. It’s nice to have a company you can call years later and know you’re going to get good service and quality work. I would definitely recommend Tampa Bay Solar to anyone looking for a solar company. They’ve taken great care of me and my system over the years.

We had a great experience with Tampa Bay Solar from start to finish. They installed solar on our home and really did their due diligence throughout the entire process, making sure everything was up to code, incorporating the latest equipment, and helping us maximize the number of panels we could install. The team was always on time, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely great to work with. They felt like true partners throughout the process rather than just installers. Huge shout-out to Pete, Josh, Frannie, and Francois, who all rocked it! They also patiently handled all of my husband’s very detailed questions and made sure everything was working exactly as it should, which was especially important since we needed enough power for his mini data center. :) We really appreciated the level of care, communication, and attention to detail. Highly recommend Tampa Bay Solar!

Crew removed And reinstalled existing solar panels for roof replacement. Added additional new panels during reinstall. Crew was very knowledgeable and friendly. They showed up when scheduled, work hard and cleaned the area prior to leaving each day. Will use Tampa Bay Solar if the need arises in the future and would highly recommend them if you’re looking to install solar.
