Let Our Florida Sunshine Through! Solar-FIT For Sunshine State!
This is seriously a no brainer. (Gail Mingo)
I have been investigating this for my next home in Florida. (Cari K. Wood)
It seems inane that Florida will do nothing to take advantage of its most prevalant and cheapest resource, solar energy! (Richard Ewald)
Solar! Let’s do it, Florida!!! (Kathryn Grindle)
I have been in the environmental/alternative energy field for 35 years. I have seen solar work in NEW ENGLAND! IT should be on every house in every state and sell electricity back to the utility company. We all proved it works, but big oil brings the profits, so we know who to vote for next time. Vote right. BTW, where are the natural gas cars? We used them in the state government in Ohio 20 years ago, what is taking the rest of the country so long to get on board? BIG OIL. Florida especially should have solar on every home and more insulation, better windows, better building, better codes and more efficient in every respect. This brings jobs that the YOUNG people need. Young people are flocking out of the state and taking their tax dollars with them. How sad. I miss them./ Start using your head, not adding to your already HUGE bank accounts. It is all about money and greed. You work 6 months a year, get almost free health care and let the others suffer. at least give us cheap energy. Dr. Janine (Janine Secord)
WE NEED THIS ASAP!!!! THE NEWS ABOUT FRACKING AND OPEN MINING OF “OIL SOIL” IS TERRIFYING!!!!! THAT IS PLANET TERRORISM!! THE SUNSHINE STATE NEEDS TO USE THAT SUNSHINE, NOW!!! LET’S GET MOVING!! (Judith Babcock)
Please push for solar energy… Initially I grew up in Citrus County and there was always worry of Nuclear Leaks… and now with the Nuclear Plant Offline (Indefinitely) Solar Energy make the most sense… Other countries are doing it, lets be a leading state in this country and push for solar energy. Even if we could offer a solar panel per household, to heat our water, it would save Floridians millions per year. Please push Solar Energy for our future, our children’s future, and generations to come. Oil, Coal, Natural Gas all emit pollution… when will we learn this is having a negative effect on our environment. (Thomas Sprouse)
iTS COMMON SENSE, ESPECIALLY IN FLORIDA, WE NEED INCENTIVES FOR SOLAR ENERGY SUPPORT SOLAR-FIT. (Alexander McDevitt)
I’ve been saying FOREVER that the sunshine state would be wise to promote solar in a government led way, like in Germany, for instance. Berkley, CA had a great initiative to put solar on people’s houses with a small investment price and then tack the rest onto their tax bill so the money is paid out by the homeowner for the next 10 years. This would create THOUSANDS of jobs–and of course, we want to build the panels in our state, too. Clean manufacturing!—we have a surplus so now’s the time to think LONG TERM!! (Dr. & Ms. Randall & Kelley Hewitt)
WE HAVE BEEN BEGGING FOR THIS AS IT IS A NO BRAINER. HELLO !!!!!! WAKE UP !!! (Roshelle McDevitt)
Why do we lag behind so much of the world in yet ANOTHER area? (Karen W. LeBoutillier)
Yes, Florida needs to use the sun for its energy. (Ligia Perez)
We need solar energy in Florida! (Theresa Zieber)
I have 2 systems using the FIT. A fantastic deal for me, the electric company, and for FL. It will help us get off the dirty fuels and into clean energy. Put folks to work making the panels in FL as well. (Martha Tod)
It’s a no-brainer to harnes as much of our abundant sunshine for energy use! Please enact this policy asap! (James Griffin)
It’s way past time!(Kitt Lough)
Please consider incorporating the FIT program into the Florida market. Sustainable energy resources are so important to providing diverse energy options for this market. Thank you. (Sharon Lee)
I have solar panels for my hot water tank and they are amazing. We all need to tap more free energy from out sun and stop depleting irreplaceable resources. (Beth)
The sun’s free energy is “Mother Nature’s ” greatest gift. Encouraging solar utilization through proven, effective policies such as FIT’s is the pathway for economic development, job creation, and energy independence in our state. With your leadership, Florida will assume it’s rightful roll as America’s leader in solar development, manufacturing, and deployment. Let’s send a message to the rest of our great nation, and the world that Florida is indeed ..the “Sunshine State”. (Bill Gallagher)
Please support solar energy (Rosemary G. Sexton)
I am so glad other people are interested in solar power in Florida. It won’t answer all of our energy problems but it’s a start. (Cynthia Strait)
