Home Backup Power Systems

Summary

The bill prevents Florida counties, cities and special districts from requiring permits or equivalent approvals for installing, relocating, replacing or repairing residential backup power systems that are 50 kW or less (or have up to 100 kWh of storage). It also caps permit requirements for work on single‑family homes at $7,500, except for electrical, plumbing or structural work, and creates new inspection and record‑keeping rules. The aim is to make it easier for homeowners to add generators or battery systems while keeping safety oversight through state building codes.
