NextEra Energy

Runs a Florida utility and builds wind and solar farms

NextEra Energy owns Florida Power & Light, the regulated utility that supplies electricity to much of Florida, and NextEra Energy Resources, which builds and runs wind, solar, battery storage and nuclear plants across the United States. The company calls itself the world's largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and sun. FPL earns returns set by Florida regulators on the power plants and grid lines it builds, while Energy Resources sells power to utilities, technology companies and other large buyers under long-term contracts.
