Net Metering: Renewable Generation Pays You Back

Net Metering allows FPL customers to earn a payback from connecting approved renewable generation systems - such as solar panels - to the electric grid. On any given day, you generate electricity from free, renewable sources like the sun and wind, providing energy for your home or business and reducing the amount you purchase from FPL and your monthly bills. If your system ever produces more energy than you need, the excess is supplied to the grid and that amount is

subtracted from your current monthly bill or banked for use on a future bill in the same calendar year.

To be eligible, complete the application process for your Interconnection Tier listed below and FPL will replace your electric meter to correctly measure excess power supplied to the grid. This is needed to calculate the net impact on your bill.
