FPL plans to install 30 million solar panels in Florida by 2030

Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) announced a groundbreaking “30-by-30” plan to install more than 30 million solar panels by 2030 to make the state of Florida a world leader in the production of solar energy. FPL has secured solar sites throughout the state, which will allow the company to continue to cost-effectively build solar energy centers across Florida. This plan will capture economies of scale and promote the construction of efficient and cost-effective solar generation. The end result will be the largest installation of solar panels by a regulated utility in the world and a 67% fleet-wide reduction in CO2 emissions rate by 2030, as compared to the national average.
