What the sun does in Boca Raton

• A south-facing roof at a 30° pitch makes about 1,463 kWh per kW a year, 2% below the Florida average.
• March is the best month at about 138 kWh per kW; December the worst at about 112. Spring is the strongest season and summer afternoons bring clouds, so the net-zero size is set on the whole year, not on the hottest month, and how your utility credits exports decides what the summer surplus is worth.
• Roof direction and pitch change the yield by a quarter or more; the estimate reads your actual roof from satellite imagery and fills south-facing planes first.
• Air conditioning roughly doubles an August bill compared with February, so a single bill is annualized with Florida's monthly load shape rather than multiplied by twelve.

Questions Boca Raton homeowners ask

How much do solar panels cost in Boca Raton?

For a electrically heated home using about 1100 kWh a month, a net-zero system of about 9 kW costs roughly $19,440 to $23,760 installed at current Florida cash prices, before any incentive. Larger homes and electric heat need bigger systems; your address gives a real figure in about a minute.

How long does solar take to pay for itself in Boca Raton?

About 9.4 to 12.7 years for that typical home on Florida Power & Light rates, assuming electricity prices rise 2.7% a year. Florida Power & Light's own rules (fixed charge, net-metering credits) are built in.

Does solar work through Boca Raton's summers and storm season?

Yes, with a seasonal shape: March makes about 138 kWh per kW and December about 112. Summer is when the system earns most of its keep: production peaks in the same months as air conditioning, so more of it is used on site. Hurricane wind loads are an engineering and insurance question for the installer, not a production one.

What incentives apply in 2026?

Florida exempts solar equipment from sales tax and keeps the value it adds off your property-tax bill, and both are already in these figures. Business-owned systems, including rental property, qualify for the 30% federal investment credit (Section 48E) and bonus depreciation when placed in service by the end of 2027; tax-exempt owners receive the 30% as cash. Not tax advice.
