FSEC Energy Research Center®, also known as the Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC®), is the state's premier energy research center. Created by the Florida Legislature in 1975 to test and certify solar systems, FSEC® is administered by the University of Central Florida. As a result of FSEC's extensive research capabilities increasing throughout the years, Florida Solar Energy Center slowly outgrew its solar name. The Center is rebranding its research as the FSEC Energy Research Center®—at the University of Central Florida—to more accurately reflect its research, capabilities, and university affiliation.
Some records in this collection only include a citation. You can view the entire FSEC Publications Database on their website.
