Sunshine Energy
At FPL, we are committed to the goal of preserving our environment and educating our customers on what they can do today to help preserve the environment for future generations. By becoming a member of our Sunshine Energy? program, doing your part for the environment is easy.
Help reduce air pollution
Choosing Sunshine Energy is one of the most important things you can do to reduce air pollution. In just one year as a Sunshine Energy customer, you can avoid over 10,800 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions nationwide ? that's equal to as much as a car would produce in almost 12,000 miles of driving, recycling 26,625 aluminum cans or recycling 4,326 pounds of newspaper.
Since the program's inception in 2004, the more than 38,000 FPL customers choosing the Sunshine Energy program have helped avoid more than 756 million pounds of CO2 emissions from being released into the environment. That's comparable to removing 67,000 cars from the road today! And thanks to our customers, Sunshine Energy is the largest green power program in the southeast.
Help build clean sources of energy
Spurring the development of new solar facilities is one of the missions of the program. By enrolling in FPL’s Sunshine Energy program, you are helping to make the construction of new solar projects a reality. As part of the program, FPL is committed to building solar projects right here in Florida. In fact, because of Sunshine Energy customers, Florida's largest solar facility (250 KW) is being developed right now at Rothenbach Park in Sarasota County.
For every 10,000 customers who sign up for Sunshine Energy, an additional 150kw of solar will be built in Florida. New solar arrays are scheduled to be announced this year which will be among the largest solar energy producers in Florida.
In addition, for each month that you participate in the program, FPL ensures that 1,000 kWh of cleaner electricity from sources like wind, bioenergy and solar is generated and delivered to power systems serving Florida and other states nationwide.
