Big Pine Key, Florida is one of the sunniest places in the US and Florida is called the Sunshine State. It is only natural that Big Pine Key is a great location for solar panels. Florida Solar One is the oldest and largest Big Pine Key solar panel installer and electrical contractor since opening their doors in 2008.  Not only does Florida Solar One take exceptional care of their clients they love the cute Key Deer population that roams the island too.  

When it comes to experience in the Florida Keys and education of their staff none can match Florida Solar One.  The company is owned by Ray Johnson, a solar energy professor and professional engineer that demands all workers be fully trained and qualified before stepping onto a clients property.  All technicians are NABCEP Certified Solar Installers and all electricians are UL Certified Solar Electricians too.  With these credentials few solar companies can match the experience and qualifications of Florida Solar One statewide let alone in the Florida Keys.

Florida Solar One is also a Certified Tesla Installer and installs Tesla solar panels, batteries and car charging systems.

“We are a full service Tesla Channel partner and clearly the largest in Monroe County with those credentials”. Says owner Ray Johnson. “Tesla provides what everyone wants – 100% grid independent power at an affordable price”.

Building Big Pine Key solar panel systems to withstand hurricane force winds, near equatorial sunshine and 100% humidity requires specific skills that can only come from years of experience.  Big Pine Key experiences frequent strong winds and took the full force of Hurricane Irma in 2018. As a result, several Big Pine Key solar systems were reported “offline” by Keys Energy.  It seems not all systems installed on Big Pine Key were truly rated to withstand Hurricane Irma’s wind speeds (up to 180 MPH).  Solar One is pleased to report none of their clients had any issue.  Homes with Solar One’s installation of Tesla Powerwalls never lost power – ever!  Others – not so much.  All the “down systems” had the similar issues.  None were installed by Solar One nor local companies.  Improper installations, lack of service and maintenance and the out of town installers all made poor choices in fasteners and roof anchorage too.  Of all the systems that were damaged – none operated when it really mattered.  

Why take any chances on your Big Pine Key solar panel system?  If you seek the best look no further than Solar Power World who recognized Florida Solar One a top 50 solar contractors in the US (annually since 2012), Inc Magazine ranked Florida Solar One a top 500 fastest growing US companies and the fasted growing energy company in the state of Florida from 2013 through 2015 for good reason.  For the best Big Pine Key solar systems, call Solar One – because experience matters.
