SACE Statement on the newly proposed SolarTogether Program
Earlier today, Florida’s largest investor-owned utility, Florida Power & Light, announced a new community solar program called Solar Together.
In response, Southern Alliance for Clean Energy’s executive director Dr. Stephen A. Smith offered this statement:
“SACE welcomes the news of Florida Power & Light’s newly-announced SolarTogether Program. We believe this will be a significant move to provide low-cost solar power to a wider range of customers throughout Florida. We believe that this program, coupled with FPL’s previously announced 30 x 30 commitment to utility-scale solar, shows that the utility is serious about advancing solar power in Florida. This program appears to make clean, solar power more widely available in the Sunshine State. We are carefully reviewing the details of this proposal and will provide more comments as we review this filing.”
