Duke Energy Florida Announces Three New Solar Power Plants
All three solar power plants will be owned, operated and maintained by Duke Energy Florida and are expected to be finished in late 2021.
Duke Energy Florida (DEF) on May 29 filed the locations of its three newest solar power plants, which will provide cleaner, smarter energy solutions to benefit Florida customers.
* The Duette Solar Power Plant will be built on approximately 520 acres in Manatee County, Fla. Once operational, the 74.5-MW facility will consist of approximately 227,000 single-axis tracking solar panels, capable of producing enough electricity to power approximately 23,000 homes at peak production annually. Once completed, the estimated cost will be 42 cents per 1,000 kWh for a typical residential customer.
* The Charlie Creek Solar Power Plant will be built on 610 acres in Hardee County, Fla. The 74.9-MW facility will consist of approximately 235,000 single-axis tracking solar panels, capable of producing enough electricity to power approximately 23,000 homes at peak production annually.

The picture shows a field filled with rows of shiny solar panels, all angled towards the sun. The panels are set up in a large grid, with each panel appearing to be mounted on a metal frame. The field stretches out towards the horizon, with the bright blue sky forming a backdrop to the scene. The solar panels are a clear indication of the use of renewable energy, and the vast size of the field suggests a significant commitment to sustainability.
A solar tax credit is a government incentive that allows individuals or businesses to reduce the amount of taxes they owe if they purchase and install solar panels on their property. This credit is designed to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources, such as solar power, and to help offset the cost of purchasing and installing solar panels. The amount of the credit varies depending on the location and the size of the solar energy system, but it can be a significant financial benefit for those who choose to invest in solar power.
The picture shows a field of gleaming solar panels, basking in the warm sunlight. This commercial solar installation is a testament to our commitment to renewable energy and a cleaner, greener future. The sun's energy is captured by photovoltaic cells and converted into electricity, providing a sustainable source of power for homes and businesses. This solar farm is just one example of the many ways we are working to combat climate change and protect our planet for future generations.
