Florida Power & Light Company

Florida Power & Light Company (FPL), headquartered in Juno Beach, Florida, is the largest electric utility company in both Florida and the United States by customer count. As a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Inc., FPL serves over 6 million customer accounts—approximately 12 million people—across nearly all of Florida. The company operates one of America’s most fuel-efficient and cleanest power generation fleets with a strong emphasis on renewable energy expansion.
FPL has become a national leader in utility-scale solar development: as of early 2024 it operates more than 65 large-scale solar centers statewide, each typically generating about 75 megawatts—enough to power thousands of homes per center. Its ongoing “Real Zero” initiative aims to eliminate all carbon emissions from its operations by no later than 2045 through massive investments in renewables like solar power, battery storage technology, green hydrogen integration, and continued innovation.
The company’s aggressive buildout includes plans to increase its electricity mix from approximately 8% solar today toward an ambitious target of nearly 38% by 2033. By leveraging economies-of-scale for universal (“utility-grade”) installations rather than rooftop systems alone—and offering customer participation programs—FPL delivers cost-effective clean electricity while maintaining some of the lowest average bills nationwide. Its efforts have already resulted in billions saved for customers through reduced fuel costs while supporting local economies via job creation during plant construction phases. FPL does not primarily offer rooftop solar installation or direct-to-consumer EPC services; its focus is on utility-scale projects that feed into the state’s electric grid.
