The City of Jacksonville Beach is reviewing its policy on compensating exported solar energy. The city council will discuss if compensation should remain at the full retail rate or be adjusted to the utility’s avoided cost. This discussion is part of the FY2027 budget assumptions and calendar planning. The decision could impact customer access, equity, utility finances, and long-term energy strategy.
