Port St. Lucie, Florida, Solar Company: Goldin Solar

Why Go Solar in Port St. Lucie?

Port St. Lucie is located in southeast Florida in the center of the Treasure Coast. The Treasure Coast got its name from the many gold-carrying Spanish galleons that sunk off the coast in the 18th century. Today, visitors are most likely to visit the Treasure Coast for the many natural areas near Port St. Lucie, such as Jonathan Dickinson State Park, an 11,500-acre park just outside the city. Visitors and locals alike also enjoy fishing (Port St. Lucie is dubbed the “sailfish capital of the world”) and watching live sports (the New York Mets train here). 

Going solar in Port St. Lucie allows you to ditch your electric bill while leaving a smaller footprint on the planet. Instead of burning dirty fossil fuels for energy or relying on risky and wasteful nuclear energy, you can power your life with the sun. This will give you more freedom to spend days walking and shopping in nearby Hobe Sound.

At Goldin Solar, we make it easy for you to save money with solar on day one with $0 down. This is possible due to Port St. Lucie utility Florida Power & Light’s net metering policies and federal and local incentives. The federal tax credit for going solar in 2020 is 26%, but act quickly, because this incentive is set to expire soon. Currently, Port St. Lucie does not have other incentives for solar.

Is Solar Right for Me?

You can determine if solar is right for you by answering a few easy questions:

1. Do you own your home?
2. Is your roof in good condition?
3. Does your roof receive sunlight during the day?
4. Do you like saving money?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, continue your solar journey by learning how solar works in Florida.

If not, you can take steps to increase your eligibility for solar. A roof can be replaced under the same contract as a solar installation, since Goldin Solar is licensed in Port St. Lucie for both roofing and solar. Shade can often be reduced by trimming trees.
