Company Overview

NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE), headquartered in Juno Beach, Florida, is a leading clean energy company with both regulated utility operations and competitive renewable generation businesses. The company’s principal operating subsidiaries include Florida Power & Light Company (FPL), a regulated electric utility serving customers in Florida, and NextEra Energy Resources, which develops, constructs, owns and operates a large portfolio of wind, solar and energy storage projects. Together these businesses provide electricity supply, transmission and distribution services as well as utility-scale renewable generation and related services.

NextEra’s activities cover the full lifecycle of power assets, from project development and construction to operation, maintenance and asset optimization. FPL focuses on delivering reliable electricity and grid services to retail customers in Florida, while NextEra Energy Resources sells power into wholesale markets under long-term contracts and merchant arrangements and invests in battery storage to support grid reliability and the integration of intermittent renewables. The company also engages in energy trading and other energy-related services that support its generation and utility operations.

Rooted historically in Florida’s utility sector and expanded through a strategic emphasis on renewables, NextEra repositioned itself over time from a traditional utility parent to a diversified energy company with substantial investments in wind, solar and storage, primarily across the United States and Canada. The company is led by an experienced executive team based at its corporate headquarters and maintains a business strategy focused on low‑carbon electricity generation, infrastructure investment and regulatory engagement in the markets it serves.
