Miami — Tier-1 Pillar

Miami Solar + Net Metering — FPL Interconnection, HVHZ Mounting, Battery Backup

Miami solar reality. FPL net metering, HVHZ-rated roof mounting system (every component NOA-listed), Tesla Powerwall or Enphase IQ battery for hurricane backup, typical 8-14 kW residential. $22K-$55K installed before incentives.

~1 min read·Updated 2026-04-23

FPL net metering remains available at 1:1 retail credit (post-2022 legislation preserved it). Every rooftop solar mount system in Miami-Dade and Broward must carry a current Miami-Dade NOA. Tesla Powerwall 3 or Enphase IQ Battery 5P provides hurricane backup — Miami's hurricane season is the primary use case for battery storage, not time-of-use arbitrage.

Frequently asked questions

Is FPL net metering still available? Yes — 1:1 retail credit preserved through 2022 legislation, subject to utility-commission review.

Do solar mounts need HVHZ rating? Yes — every rack and attachment point must carry current Miami-Dade NOA.

How much does Miami solar cost? Typical 8-10 kW system: $22K-$38K before federal tax credit (30% ITC). With Powerwall battery: add $12K-$18K.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
