⚡ FPL EVolution vs. Private Electrician Comparison
While Florida Power & Light's EVolution program offers a low upfront installation fee, property owners pay a recurring monthly fee ($38+/month forever) and never own the charging equipment. Private installation gives you 100% equipment ownership, freedom to choose 48A hardware, and zero monthly fees.
