Rates, Rules & Regulations

As a regulated utility, FPL rates, rules and regulations are set by the Florida Public Service Commission. Here are some convenient references to help you understand how we work.

Residential and business prices

For detailed information on our residential and business rates, fuel charges, storm charges and clause charges, reference the following charts:

Quarterly storm charge adjustment

Each month, customers pay a nominal storm charge to repay storm recovery bonds, related financing costs and taxes. Although the storm charge is designed to remain relatively stable over time, it is adjusted quarterly for any over- or under-collection of the charges.
                                     
The extreme hurricane seasons of 2004 and 2005 more than depleted FPL’s $376 million storm reserve at that time with total restoration costs of approximately $1.7 billion. In 2005, the Florida Legislature passed a bill allowing electric utilities to recover their storm restoration costs by issuing storm-recovery bonds. The Florida Public Service Commission approved FPL’s request to recover certain storm restoration costs from 2004-05 and replenish our storm reserve to $200 million by issuing such bonds. We expect to repay the bonds and recover all costs through the storm charge by 2019.
