Solar Energy

Generating power from the sun is one of the cleanest and greenest ways to produce electricity. Using solar power helps reduce the level of emissions released into the environment and results in cleaner air and water for everyone. It also reduces our dependence on fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas.

Generating Electricity with Solar

New technologies have transformed the energy market. JEA is expanding universal solar by contracting with eight new solar installations, increasing installed solar capacity by more than 200 percent.
