Default Solar in TV

Greets
We bought a small rancher in TV for my sister (but she bailed out and will; stay out west due to 'humidiphobia') in March, then a Premiere for ourselves in October.
We are not sure how soon we'll make the move, but with each visit we want it sooner.
We have been using solar domestic hot water up here in Maryland since 1976, and PV electric since 2005.
The meter runs backwards most of the spring, summer, and fall, and the hot water backup coil has not been turned on much at all.
We only use the AC when it's over 95 and when we stay in the TV rancher use AC set at 85 .
We've seen collectors for pools but would like to use PV's and hot water collectors, especially since Florida has huge subsidies (that will expire soon)

We are wondering why we have not seen more solar used there.
Thanks.
