Let’s try to look at the positive in the Florida solar market. The regulators stopped the solar rebates, which many inside the TLH beltway would have expected. They were inefficient anyways because they were based on 2010 $/watt, but also because solar & utilities don’t communicate here. That being said, solar in Florida will grow, either through wholesale contracts with the utilities or utility owned solar farms as we expect the 2nd term governor to be open to doing cost effective solar.
