Producer
NextEra Energy, Inc.
NextEra Energy (Juno Beach FL; NYSE: NEE; ~$24B revenue; ~$130B market cap) is the world's largest electricity generator by installed capacity (~58 GW total), comprising regulated utility Florida Power & Light (~30 GW) plus NextEra Energy Resources — the world's largest operator of wind (~21 GW) and solar (~8 GW) generation. NextEra sells primarily to utilities and municipal cooperatives but directly to large industrial customers through long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). Major data center and industrial PPAs include agreements with Amazon, Google, and aluminum producers. NextEra's wind/solar PPA pricing (~$25-40/MWh) is among the lowest cost electricity available in the US, enabling large industrial customers to lock in predictable low-cost power for 15-25 year terms. NextEra is also the parent of NextEra Energy Partners (NYSE: NEP), a publicly traded yieldco that holds operating wind/solar assets.

Did you know2020
NextEra Energy's Florida Power & Light subsidiary is the primary electricity supplier to Patrick Space Force Base (PSFB), Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Kennedy Space Center, and the Naval Air Station Jacksonville — making FPL, a commercial utility, the de facto power infrastructure for the US launch complex and an Atlantic Fleet aviation hub. FPL also serves MacDill Air Force Base (Tampa — CENTCOM and SOCOM headquarters). Commercial utility relationships with military installations are standard across the US — there is no dedicated military electric grid — but NextEra's FPL territory covers the single highest-density concentration of US military launch and space operations facilities. Hurricane Irma (September 2017) knocked out power to over 4.4 million FPL customers, including military installations, demonstrating that US space launch infrastructure has the same grid vulnerability as residential customers. FPL has since invested over $3B in grid hardening (storm-resistant poles, automated switching, undergrounding) partly justified by military reliability requirements.

NextEra Energy grew from FPL Group — the parent of Florida Power & Light, a regulated electric utility serving southeastern Florida. FPL Group began acquiring wind energy assets in the early 2000s through what became NextEra Energy Resources, building the world's largest portfolio of wind and solar generation. The decision to rebrand from "FPL Group" to "NextEra Energy" in 2010 explicitly signaled the strategic shift from a regional Florida utility to a national clean energy platform. NextEra's market capitalization grew from ~$25B in 2010 to ~$130B by 2024 — making a Florida electric company one of the world's most valuable energy corporations by betting on renewable energy a decade ahead of the policy consensus.
