State regulators are seeking comments from the public about how to enhance and further develop Florida's solar power efforts.

The state Public Service Commission said it wants information from individuals, business and utilities that helps address practical ways "to more effectively promote solar energy in Florida."

"It makes sense to involve all stakeholders in gathering information on practical policies and programs to encourage solar energy," said PSC Chairman Art Graham. He said the commission has concluded that expensive pilot programs currently in place have yielded insufficient results.

For further information on submitting comments or to view the questions to be answered, visit www.FloridaPSC.com and access Solar Energy in Florida-Request for Comments under Hot Topics.

Comments are due by 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, June 23 and are limited to 20 pages. All submitted comments will be public record and posted to the PSC's website.
