A new study says Florida will be tops in the nation in the number of new solar panels by 2028.

Residents of about 10,000 single-family homes in the state will receive financial help installing rooftop solar. Low and moderate income households will benefit.

In a win for the rooftop-solar industry and environmental groups, Gov. Ron DeSantis has vetoed a bill that would have made major changes in rules for rooftop-solar energy.

The Florida Senate on Monday gave final approval to a bill that would make major changes in rules for rooftop solar energy, after weeks of attempts by the solar industry and environmental groups to head it off.

A much-debated plan to change the rules for rooftop solar in Florida passed the House this week. The changes will potentially make solar more expensive for future users.

Rooftop solar panels may cost more to hook up under a bill moving through the Florida House. It may also have utility companies paying less for extra energy. Opponents say the legislation would hurt the rooftop solar industry and lead to thousands of jobs being lost.
