Solar Projects

Tampa Electric is significantly expanding our use of solar power. By 2023, we plan to add another 600 megawatts (MW) of photovoltaic solar projects, which is enough electricity to power more than 100,000 homes. In total Tampa Electric will have 1,250 MW of solar power.

When the projects are complete, 14 percent of Tampa Electric's energy generation will come from the sun – a higher percentage of solar than any other Florida utility.
