Kissimmee is served by Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA), and the city's Permitting Division handles electrical permits. Typical jobs run from $150 to $4,500, and homes here are mostly post-1979, so capacity is likely to come up before old-panel problems do.
Who supplies electricity in Kissimmee?
KUA. Its own site describes service in Kissimmee and surrounding areas, including Osceola County customers. That reach matters, because the same utility can cover addresses under two different building departments. KUA's service requirements mention inspections from both the City of Kissimmee and Osceola County. If your bill says something else, go with your bill.

Inside city limits, the Permitting Division in Development Services. Its Types of Permits page lists "electrical meter/panel change out" and "sub panel and meter" under electrical permits. Your electrician pulls the permit, and the city takes other questions at 407-518-2379 or permitting@kissimmee.gov.
How old are homes in Kissimmee?
Mostly younger than you might expect, so the job is more often about adding capacity. Census estimates put the median home at 1992, with about 22% of 30,926 housing units from 1979 or earlier and about 10% from before 1970. In practice:
- Newer homes tend to raise questions about room: a car charger, a hot tub, a converted garage.
- That older one-in-five is where a look at the panel label pays off. If it says Federal Pacific or Zinsco, read those guides.
- Any home can need a repair visit for dead outlets or tripping breakers.
