FlaSEIA'S 45 Years of Leadership
Established in 1977, the Florida Solar Industries Association (FlaSEIA) is a non-profit trade association dedicated to protecting and promoting the interests of the solar energy industry in Florida. Our commitment is highlighted by stringent contractor licensure and system certification standards, which have significantly increased consumer confidence and spurred industry growth. Upholding high ethical standards, our professional members prioritize quality, safety, and performance. With over 450,000 solar installations statewide, our members' commitment is evident in making solar the natural energy choice for Florida.
Our Mission
At FlaSEIA, our mission is to enable the deployment of local solar energy and storage. We empower businesses and consumers, working together to build a brighter future.
FlaSEIA'S Advocacy, Ethics, and Standards
Legislative and Regulatory Advocacy
Each year, our members focus on prioritizing legislative and regulatory issues. FlaSEIA has played a pivotal role in securing the permanent status of the state's solar sales tax exemption. Through strategic collaboration with legislators and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, FlaSEIA actively advocated for the passage of the Florida Renewable Energy Technologies and Energy Efficiency Act. This Act provides financial incentives for solar hot water heating, solar swimming pool hearing and solar electric (photovoltaic) systems.
Promoting Ethical Business Practices
We actively encourage ethical conduct among companies operating in the solar market. While FlaSEIA is not a law enforcement organization, we serve as a resource to connect individuals with the appropriate law enforcement organizations. Our aim is to foster integrity and accountability within the industry, ensuring a trustworthy environment for all involved.
Influencing Building Codes and Permitting
FlaSEIA actively advocates for codes and standards to ensure safety, reliability, and uniformity in the solar industry. By shaping these regulations, we contribute to a safer and more reliable solar market.
