Local Guide

Solar in Fort Lauderdale: What Is Different Here

Three local factors shape solar in Fort Lauderdale: FPL, which credits solar exports at the full retail rate; Broward County’s place in the Florida Building Code’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone; and permits that run through your city or Broward County. SunVena’s Fort Lauderdale office handles all three for homeowners across Broward.

FPL Net Metering at the Retail Rate

FPL serves all of Broward County and credits the solar energy you send to the grid at the full retail rate, as Florida’s net metering rule requires of investor-owned utilities. Credits offset the power you buy, unused credits carry forward month to month, and any left at the end of the calendar year are paid at FPL’s avoided-cost rate.

Engineered for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone

Broward and Miami-Dade are the only Florida counties in the Florida Building Code’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ). Every SunVena system in Fort Lauderdale is engineered to the Florida Building Code’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements that apply in Broward County, and our 25-year guarantee covers every roof penetration.

Permits Through Your City or Broward County

SunVena handles permitting for you. Homes in the City of Fort Lauderdale are permitted through the city’s building department; homes in other Broward cities, such as Plantation, Pembroke Pines, Hollywood and Coral Springs, go through their own municipal building departments; and unincorporated areas go through Broward County. We prepare the engineering package and coordinate inspections.

Your HOA Cannot Ban Solar

Florida law (Fla. Stat. 163.04) prevents homeowners associations and deed restrictions from prohibiting solar panels. An HOA can have a say in where roof panels go, but not in a way that impairs how well they work. SunVena helps prepare your HOA submittal with the permit package. Read our guide to HOAs and solar.

Battery Backup

Battery Backup and Hurricanes in Fort Lauderdale

A home battery keeps essential circuits running when a hurricane or summer storm takes down the grid, because grid-tied solar panels without a battery shut off during an outage for safety. Since FPL credits exports at the full retail rate, most Fort Lauderdale homeowners add a battery for backup power rather than for export savings.

Tesla Powerwall 3

SunVena is a Tesla Premier Certified Installer, and our own crews install Tesla Powerwall 3 with new solar systems or as an addition to many existing ones. Your Solar Advisor sizes the battery to the circuits you want to keep running during an outage.

Enphase IQ Batteries

As an Enphase Platinum Installer, SunVena also installs Enphase IQ Batteries, a modular option that works with Enphase microinverter systems. A battery can be installed with new solar or added to many existing systems.

Warranty

Our 25-Year Comprehensive Guarantee

One 25-year guarantee covers your equipment, labor, roof penetrations and production. If your system produces less than we guaranteed, SunVena pays you the difference in cash.

5.0

Transparent and Informative

My husband and I are new SunVena customers. We are working with Rick and Cole as our sales representatives. We knew Rick from the roofing company when we got a new roof. Both men have been professional and supportive through this process. Our solar panels are up and look visually appealing. All that is left to go live is FPL to sign off, download the app and we are set! We have been extremely impressed with SunVena. Everyone has been transparent, informative and great with communication.…

A Great Experience

We had a great experience from the beginning through the installations. A little better communication between the company FPL and the customer is the only thing we would recommend.

Fort Lauderdale Solar FAQs

Who installs solar panels in Fort Lauderdale, FL?

SunVena Solar installs solar panels and home batteries in Fort Lauderdale and across Broward County from its office at 3150 Prospect Rd, Fort Lauderdale. Its crews are SunVena employees, never subcontractors, and Spanish-speaking Solar Advisors and crews are available. SunVena holds a 4.9 out of 5 Google rating from more than 2,000 reviews and has completed more than 20,000 solar and battery installations in Florida since 2019.

Does FPL offer net metering in Fort Lauderdale?

Yes. Florida Power and Light (FPL) serves all of Broward County and offers net metering under Florida’s rules: solar energy you send to the grid is credited at the full retail rate against energy you buy, unused credits roll forward month to month, and credits left at the end of the calendar year are paid at FPL’s avoided-cost rate. Learn how net metering works in Florida.

How much do solar panels cost in Fort Lauderdale?

The cost depends on your home’s energy use, your roof’s size and type, shading, the equipment you choose and whether you add a battery. HVHZ engineering requirements in Broward County also affect the racking and attachment design. A SunVena Solar Advisor will give you a free, no-obligation quote based on your actual FPL bills.

Are solar panels in Fort Lauderdale built to withstand hurricanes?

SunVena engineers every Fort Lauderdale system to the Florida Building Code’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements that apply in Broward County, one of only two Florida counties in the HVHZ along with Miami-Dade. Our 25-year comprehensive guarantee covers equipment, labor, roof penetrations and production.

Who installs Tesla Powerwall in Fort Lauderdale?

SunVena Solar is a Tesla Premier Certified Installer and installs Tesla Powerwall 3 in Fort Lauderdale and across Broward County with its own crews. SunVena is also an Enphase Platinum Installer and installs Enphase IQ Batteries. A battery can be installed with a new solar system or added to many existing systems. Learn about Tesla Powerwall installation.

Can my HOA stop me from installing solar panels in Broward County?

No. Florida law (Fla. Stat. 163.04) prevents homeowners associations and deed restrictions from prohibiting solar panels. An HOA can have a say in where roof panels are placed, but not in a way that impairs how well the system works. SunVena helps prepare HOA submittals as part of the permitting process. Read our guide to HOAs and solar in Florida.

Does solar increase property taxes in Fort Lauderdale, FL?

No. Under Fla. Stat. 193.624, any increase in your home’s value from a residential solar energy system may not be counted when your property is assessed, so installing solar does not raise your property taxes in Fort Lauderdale or anywhere in Broward County.

Can Fort Lauderdale homeowners still get the federal solar tax credit?

Not for a new home solar system installed in 2026. The 30% federal Residential Clean Energy Credit applied to systems installed from 2022 through December 31, 2025, and per the IRS it is not available for property placed in service after that date. If your system was installed by the end of 2025 and the credit exceeded the tax you owed, you can carry the unused amount forward to future tax years. Leased systems can still carry federal savings under Section 48E if they are installed and operating by December 31, 2027. Tax situations vary, so confirm eligibility with a tax professional. Learn more about federal tax incentives for solar.

Does SunVena have Spanish-speaking solar advisors in Fort Lauderdale?

Yes. SunVena has Spanish-speaking Solar Advisors and installation crews serving Fort Lauderdale and South Florida, so you can go through the consultation, design and installation in Spanish. Ver esta página en español.

How do I choose a reputable solar installer in Fort Lauderdale?

Look for a company with a local office, a track record of installations in Broward County, strong customer reviews, industry certifications, its own installation crews and a warranty of at least 20 years covering products, labor and production. Ask for customer references and compare written proposals before you decide. SunVena is happy to provide references from South Florida customers.
