Not every region of the world is as green energy progressive as the UK. In the US, states make their own regulations on energy - and it is reflected in the state of Florida. FL only has 5 utility companies, but Duke (the largest utility in the country) and FPL (the 3rd largest in the county) control most of the state (the other 3 utility companies purchase power from Duke and FPL, essentially making them the only 2 providers in the state). FPL's parent company NextEra is the largest supplier of Solar Energy in North America. Duke is a top 5 provider of solar energy in North America. Yet it is illegal for me to power my home on solar panels that I buy. If I do buy the panels, I still have to pay my utility for every kWh I use even if I didn't get it from the utility (negating any financial benefits). Two of the top providers of solar energy on the continent control the utilities in FL and their lobbying is what keeps us from getting any solar benefits. OUR NICKNAME IS THE SUNSHINE STATE!!! Hopefully, companies such as Yeloha can show our legislators and their constituents the power of home owner solar and it's sharing capacity. They could provide a lot of data to empower change.
