Florida Power & Light Energy Rebates
Florida Power & Light (FPL) is the largest electric utility in Florida, serving approximately 5.8 million customers across eastern and southern Florida. FPL offers a range of residential energy conservation programs designed to help homeowners reduce electricity usage and lower monthly bills. Because Florida returned its federal HOMES and HEAR rebate funding, FPL's utility-level rebates are among the most important incentives available to Florida residents looking to upgrade their homes. From high-efficiency air conditioning systems to ceiling insulation, FPL provides meaningful financial support for energy-saving improvements. See all Florida energy rebates for additional programs and incentives available statewide.

FPL Residential Energy Conservation Program
FPL's flagship residential rebate program helps homeowners offset the cost of energy-efficient upgrades. The program focuses on improvements that reduce cooling loads, which account for the majority of electricity consumption in Florida's hot, humid climate. Eligible upgrades include high-efficiency central air conditioning systems, ceiling insulation, duct system repairs, and window film installations. All work must be performed by a licensed contractor and meet FPL's efficiency specifications to qualify.

FPL Home Energy Survey
FPL offers a free home energy survey that provides personalized recommendations for reducing electricity usage. A certified FPL energy expert evaluates your home's insulation, air conditioning system, windows, and appliances, then provides a detailed report with projected savings for each recommended improvement. Completing the survey is often a prerequisite for qualifying for rebates.

Stacking with Federal Rebates
Utility rebates from Florida Power & Light can typically be combined with the federal HOMES and HEAR rebates, but those are run state by state and most states have not launched them, so in much of the country there is currently nothing federal to combine with. This means you could potentially receive both a utility rebate and a federal rebate for the same improvement. Use our calculator to estimate your total savings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does FPL offer rebates for solar panels?
FPL's rebate programs focus on energy conservation measures like insulation, air conditioning, and duct repair rather than solar panel installations. However, FPL does offer net metering for customers who install solar panels, allowing you to receive credits for excess electricity your system sends back to the grid. Check FPL's solar programs page for current details.
Can I combine FPL rebates with federal programs?
Yes, FPL utility rebates can generally be combined with federal rebate programs. The primary federal paths for 2026 are the HEAR program (up to $8,000 for qualifying heat pumps for households at or below 150% AMI) and the HOMES program (up to $8,000 for whole-home energy performance upgrades). Important: The 25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit and the 25D Residential Clean Energy Credit both expired December 31, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and are not available for 2026 installations. For example, you could receive an FPL rebate for a high-efficiency AC system and also benefit from applicable federal programs, maximizing your total savings.
Why did Florida return its federal HOMES and HEAR rebate funding, and what does that mean for me?
Florida's state government chose to return its allocation of federal HOMES (Home Efficiency Rebates) and HEAR (Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates) funding provided under the Inflation Reduction Act. This means Florida residents cannot access those point-of-sale rebates through the state. FPL's utility rebate programs remain available as the primary rebate pathway for Florida homeowners. Note that the 25C and 25D federal tax credits, which were separate from HOMES and HEAR, also expired December 31, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and are not available for 2026 installations.
Do I need to be the homeowner to qualify for FPL rebates?
FPL rebates are generally available to the account holder of the FPL residential electric service at the property where the improvements are made. In most cases, this means the homeowner or the person responsible for the electric bill. Renters should check with FPL directly, as some programs may require property owner authorization.
