New fuel-efficient, clean energy center to begin powering customers soonFPL continues to invest to modernize infrastructure to keep bills low and reliability high. To help pay for the new, fuel-efficient Cape Canaveral Next Generation Clean Energy Center, a base rate increase will take effect once the plant begins producing electricity in Spring 2013. At the same time, the customer fuel charge will decrease due to the plant’s advanced fuel efficiency.

The estimate above includes state gross receipts tax but does not include credits, local taxes or fees that may be applicable in certain areas. The estimate also includes the projected costs for FPL's storm cost recovery and is subject to change. Calculator provides changes to the bill for usage up to 9,999 kWh.

FPL's Cape Canaveral Next Generation Clean Energy Center is in the final stages of construction and currently expected to begin providing fuel-efficient, clean energy to customers in Spring 2013. When the plant officially enters service, the base rate will increase and customer fuel charge will decrease. The net impact of these adjustments is expected to be $0.16 for a 1,000-kWh residential monthly bill.
