Florida
Citizens of the Sunshine State spend less per person on energy than any other state in the country – about 20% less than the national average. Florida is a testing ground for the hydrogen economy offering tax incentives for businesses that invest in hydrogen technologies. The state is also home to three nuclear power plants, and a consortium-led effort to develop the one of the cleanest coal-fired power plants in the world. |

A portion of the funds from the State Energy Program are allocated by formula among the states. To apply for a grant from the remaining funds, each Governor is required to write a letter to the Secretary of Energy explaining that the state will pursue policies to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy as outlined in Section 410 page 32 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
