Your Questions About Solar Power Homes Florida
Mandy asks…
Frustrated by a lack of control over local energy issues, Sarasota County leaders are considering the creation of a government-run solar electric utility that would provide cheaper electricity bills and a free solar hot water heater for everyone.
The county would pay for and own solar water heaters in residents’ homes. The only cost to consumers would be a monthly bill for the solar energy.
That would mean two electric bills for participating homeowners. But the customer would still save money on electricity because Sarasota County would charge less than Florida Power & Light for a home’s hot water.
A citizens’ committee asked by county leaders to develop local solar incentives formally recommended the solar utility idea this week.
The proposal will be considered by the County Commission on April 14. If adopted, the system will put Sarasota County in rare company; only 35 communities in the country have solar hot water incentive programs.
Larry Altman, who headed Sarasota County’s advisory committee, touted the concept of having the county absorb the cost of installing solar water heaters in homes.
“This is a guaranteed savings on your electric bill: no money down, no mainten

Yes, solar energy is the best.
Maria asks…
I was watching the video on cnn about the man who put up a huge windmill to power his home. However, he was talking about how it will still be connected to the grid and if he produces enough electricity he wont pay a bill but if not he will. Also, a man in Florida built enough solar to power his home but he is also connected to the grid. What are the laws about having your own independent energy without being connected to the grid? Are you allowed to not have any connection to the power companies? I know you never own a home in america because of property tax and eminent domain. But can you not even power your home without being connected to the largest polluting, money laundering scum on the planet? I am excited about technology that can power a home free of electric companies. But if even with the technology we still have to be part of the grid what’s the point.
Henry Dover answers:
They are connecting to the ‘grid’ for two reasons.
1. If for some reason they cannot produce enough energy for their home needs(this is the case with most windmills and solar panels)
2. When they produce more than they need it turns their electrical meter BACK and at the end of the month they can SELL the electric back to the electric co. At a reduced rate.
-windmills and solar power are both good ideas but take YEARS to see a profit through cost savings. Remember both these options don’t last forever and are EXPENSIVE to buy and install.
When you finally start making a profit you will then need to buy another unit.
