What’s the Average Electric Bill in Palm Beach Gardens?
The average electric bill for a single-family home in Palm Beach Gardens typically ranges from $160 to $220 per month for homes using between 1,000–1,400 kWh/month. However, larger homes or properties with high air conditioning loads, pools, or electric vehicles can see bills exceed $300/month, especially during peak summer months.
Florida Power & Light (FPL) charges an average residential rate of 14.38 cents per kWh (as of 2024). Summer energy usage increases sharply due to continuous A/C demand.
Palm Beach County’s warm, humid climate leads to elevated electricity usage nearly year-round, making rooftop solar a cost-effective and scalable solution for many homeowners.
Here’s a fully combined and expanded version of both sections, structured semantically with clear triplets, factual data, and a logical flow. It highlights the savings potential, net metering benefit, and realistic example scenarios for different home types—all under Blue Energy Electric’s services.
How Much Can Solar Reduce Your Bill?
Most homeowners in Palm Beach Gardens can reduce their monthly electric bill to just $25, which is Florida Power & Light’s (FPL) minimum grid connection fee. That’s possible through proper system sizing, high-efficiency panels, and Florida’s net metering policy, which allows you to send excess solar energy back to the grid for credit.
With the right design, solar panels can offset 90–100% of your energy usage, dramatically lowering monthly and annual electricity costs.
Example Savings Scenarios
Below are realistic scenarios for different household sizes and energy demands. Each example assumes optimal system design by Blue Energy Electric, tailored to roof space, usage patterns, and solar access:
Home Type | Monthly Usage | Pre-Solar Bill | System Size | Energy Offset | Post-Solar Bill | Annual Savings |
3-bedroom | 950 kWh | $160 | 7.0 kW | 90% | $25 | $1,620 |
4-bedroom | 1,100 kWh | $180 | 8.2 kW | 95% | $25 | $1,860 |
5-bedroom with pool | 1,600 kWh | $270 | 11.0 kW | 100% | $25 | $2,940 |
EV owner household | 2,100 kWh | $320+ | 13–15 kW | 100% | $25 | $3,540+ |
In most cases, solar can reduce your power bill by over 90%, translating into $20,000 to $40,000 in lifetime savings. Homes with high A/C use, pools, or electric vehicles stand to benefit the most.
Blue Energy Electric handles everything—from design to installation to FPL interconnection—ensuring your system performs at peak levels and delivers maximum savings.

What Factors Influence Solar Savings in Palm Beach Gardens?
Several local and property-specific factors affect how much you can save:
Roof Orientation: South-facing or west-facing roofs generate the most energy.
Roof Size & Pitch: Determines how many panels can fit and at what tilt angle.
Shading: Trees or neighboring buildings can reduce output.
System Size & Panel Efficiency: Higher output panels generate more per square foot.
Energy Usage: The more electricity you use, the more you can save.
Sunlight Hours: Palm Beach Gardens gets 2,800–3,000 hours of sun per year.
Financing Type: Cash purchases offer fastest ROI; loans offer no-money-down options.
Blue Energy Electric designs custom systems that match your energy needs and roof conditions for optimal results.
Long-Term ROI: What Will You Save Over 25 Years?
Installing solar in Palm Beach Gardens can generate $20,000 to $40,000 in lifetime savings, depending on system size and electricity use.
Key long-term financial benefits:
Payback Period: Most systems in South Florida pay for themselves in 6–9 years
Utility Rate Protection: Avoid rising FPL energy costs
Home Value Increase: Solar adds $15,000+ to average resale value (based on studies from Zillow and NREL)
Zero Property Tax Impact: Thanks to Florida’s solar tax exemptions
Does Solar Increase Property Taxes in Florida?
No — installing solar will not increase your property taxes in Florida. Under the Florida Property Tax Exemption for Renewable Energy Property, the added value of a residential solar energy system is 100% excluded from your home’s assessed value. This means your property tax bill stays the same even though solar can increase your home’s market value.
You also save upfront thanks to Florida’s Solar and CHP Sales Tax Exemption, which waives the state’s 6% sales and use tax on solar equipment and installation.
Together, these tax benefits significantly improve your system’s return on investment, making solar even more affordable for Florida homeowners.

Are There Incentives or Rebates Available?
Yes. The following incentives apply (or may apply) to Palm Beach Gardens homeowners, with important changes coming soon:
Federal Solar Tax Credit (ITC / Residential Clean Energy Credit): You can claim 30% of the system cost(equipment + installation) as a tax credit under the Residential Clean Energy Credit. However, this benefit expires for residential homeowners on December 31, 2025 — systems must be installed and “placed in service” before that date to qualify.
Florida Solar Sales Tax Exemption: Qualifying solar equipment and installation are exempt from Florida’s 6% sales and use tax.
Florida Property Tax Exemption: The added value of a residential solar system is excluded from your home’s assessed value, so your annual property taxes remain stable. Details here: Florida Property Tax Exemption.
PACE Financing (Property Assessed Clean Energy): Available in Palm Beach County and other parts of Florida, PACE financing allows homeowners to fund solar with little or no upfront cost, repaid via a property tax assessment.
