NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
2017
Form 10-K. In the opinion of NEE and FPL management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair financial statement presentation have been made. Certain amounts included in the prior year's condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. The results of operations for an interim period generally will not give a true indication of results for the year.
1. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Effective January 1, 2018, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update that provides guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers and requires additional disclosures regarding such contracts (new revenue standard). Under the new revenue standard, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The promised goods or services in the majority of NEE’s contracts with customers is, at FPL, for the delivery of electricity and, at NEER, for the delivery of energy commodities and the availability of electric capacity and electric transmission. NEE and FPL adopted the new revenue standard using the modified retrospective approach applying it only to contracts that were not complete at January 1, 2018. On January 1, 2018, NEE recorded a reduction to retained earnings of approximately
$25 million
representing the cumulative effect of adopting the new revenue standard, which was primarily due to identifying separate performance obligations in certain energy-related contracts at NEER. The cumulative effect of adopting the new revenue standard was not material at FPL. The impact of applying the new revenue standard to NEE’s and FPL's
June 30, 2018
financial statements as compared to the prior revenue standard was not material.
FPL and NEER generate substantially all of NEE’s operating revenues, which primarily include revenues from contracts with customers, as well as, at NEER, derivative and lease transactions. For the vast majority of contracts with customers, NEE believes that the obligation to deliver energy, capacity or transmission is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits as NEE performs. For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2018
, NEE’s revenue from contracts with customers was approximately
$3.5 billion
(
$2.9 billion
at FPL) and
$6.8 billion
(
$5.5 billion
at FPL), respectively. NEE's and FPL's receivables are primarily associated with revenues earned from contracts with customers, as well as, at NEER, derivative and lease transactions, and consist of both billed and unbilled amounts, which are recorded in customer receivables and other receivables on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration and reflect the differences in timing of revenue recognition and cash collections. For substantially all of NEE's and FPL's receivables, regardless of the type of revenue transaction from which the receivable originated, customer and counterparty credit risk is managed in the same manner and the terms and conditions of payment are similar.
FPL
- FPL’s revenue from contracts with customers is derived primarily from tariff-based sales that result from providing electricity to retail customers in Florida with no defined contractual term. Electricity sales to retail customers account for approximately
90%
of FPL’s operating revenues, the majority of which is to residential customers. FPL’s retail customers receive a bill monthly based on the amount of monthly kWh usage with payment due monthly. For these types of sales, FPL recognizes revenue as electricity is delivered and billed to customers, as well as an estimate for electricity delivered and not yet billed. The billed and unbilled amounts represent the value of electricity delivered to the customer.
NEER
- NEER’s revenue from contracts with customers is derived primarily from the sale of energy commodities, electric capacity and electric transmission. For these types of sales, NEER recognizes revenue as energy commodities are delivered and as electric capacity and electric transmission are made available, consistent with the amounts billed to customers based on rates stipulated in the respective contracts as well as an accrual for amounts earned but not yet billed. The amounts billed and accrued represent the value of energy or transmission delivered and/or the capacity of energy or transmission available to the customer. Revenues yet to be earned under these contracts, which have maturity dates ranging from
2018
to
2043
, will vary based on the volume of energy or transmission delivered and/or available. NEER’s customers typically receive bills monthly with payment due within 30 days. Certain contracts with customers contain a fixed price related primarily to electric capacity sales associated with ISO annual auctions through 2020 and certain power purchase agreements with maturity dates through 2034. At
June 30, 2018
, NEER expects to record approximately
$680 million
of revenues related to the fixed price components of such contracts over the remaining terms of the related contracts as the capacity is provided.
2. NEP Deconsolidation
During the third quarter of 2017, changes to NEP's governance structure were made that, among other things, enhanced NEP unitholder governance rights. The new governance structure established a NEP board of directors where NEP unitholders have the ability to nominate and elect board members, subject to certain limitations and requirements. As a result of these governance changes, NEP was deconsolidated from NEE on January 1, 2018, which is when the term of office of the first NEP unitholder-elected directors took effect. NEER continues to operate the projects owned by NEP and provide services to NEP under various related party operations and maintenance, administrative and management services agreements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
In connection with the deconsolidation, NEE recorded an initial investment in NEP of approximately
$4.4 billion
based on the fair value of NEP OpCo and NEP common units that were held by subsidiaries of NEE on the deconsolidation date, which investment is included in investment in equity method investees on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheet at
June 30, 2018
. The fair value was based on the market price of NEP common units as of January 1, 2018, which resulted in NEE recording a gain of approximately
$3.9 billion
(
$3.0 billion
after tax) during the
six months ended June 30, 2018
. Total assets of approximately
$7.8 billion
, primarily property, plant and equipment, total liabilities of approximately
$4.8 billion
, primarily long-term debt, and total noncontrolling interests of approximately
$2.7 billion
were removed from NEE's balance sheet as part of the deconsolidation.
The equity method investment in NEP represents NEE’s partnership interest in NEP OpCo's operating projects of approximately
65.1%
(and NEE’s direct interest in
2.6%
of NEP’s common units) at
June 30, 2018
. The equity method investment in NEP includes approximately
$3.3 billion
related to NEE’s share of the basis difference between the fair value and the underlying carrying value of NEP’s net assets attributable to NEP OpCo's common unitholders at
June 30, 2018
, a portion of which is being amortized. Basis difference amounts related to property, plant and equipment, net are being amortized over the remaining useful lives of such property, and amounts related to power purchase agreements are being amortized over the remaining terms of such agreements. The related amortization is included in equity in earnings of equity method investees in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income.
NEER provides management, administrative and transportation and fuel management services to NEP and its subsidiaries under various agreements (service agreements). NEER is also party to a cash sweep and credit support (CSCS) agreement with a subsidiary of NEP. At
June 30, 2018
, the cash sweep amount (due to NEP and its subsidiaries) held in accounts belonging to NEER or its subsidiaries was approximately
$137 million
and is included in accounts payable. Fee income totaling approximately
$24 million
and
$48 million
related to the CSCS agreement and the service agreements is included in operating revenues in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2018
, respectively. Amounts due from NEP of approximately
$43 million
and
$21 million
at
June 30, 2018
are primarily included in other receivables and noncurrent other assets, respectively. Under the CSCS agreement, NEECH or NEER guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or bonds totaling approximately
$650 million
at
June 30, 2018
primarily related to obligations on behalf of NEP's subsidiaries with maturity dates ranging from 2018 to 2050 and including certain project performance obligations, obligations under financing and interconnection agreements and obligations related to the sale of differential membership interests. Payment guarantees and related contracts with respect to unconsolidated entities for which NEE or one of its subsidiaries are the guarantor are recorded on NEE’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value. As a result of deconsolidation, approximately
$32 million
related to the fair value of the credit support provided under the CSCS agreement is recorded as noncurrent other liabilities on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheet at
June 30, 2018
.
3. Employee Retirement Benefits
NEE sponsors a qualified noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for substantially all employees of NEE and its subsidiaries and sponsors a contributory postretirement plan for other benefits for retirees of NEE and its subsidiaries meeting certain eligibility requirements.
The components of net periodic benefit (income) cost for the plans are as follows:

Amendments to Presentation of Retirement Benefits
- Effective January 1, 2018, NEE adopted an accounting standards update that requires certain changes in classification of components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs within the income statement and allows only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization. NEE adopted the standards update using the retrospective approach for presentation of the components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs and the prospective approach for capitalization of service cost. Upon adoption, NEE, among other things, reclassified the non-service cost components noted in the net periodic benefit (income) cost table above from O&M expense to other net periodic benefit income in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. The adoption of this standards update did not have an impact on net income attributable to NEE and did not have any impact on FPL as NEE is the plan sponsor.
4. Derivative Instruments
NEE and FPL use derivative instruments (primarily swaps, options, futures and forwards) to manage the physical and financial risks inherent in the purchase and sale of fuel and electricity, as well as interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated primarily with outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings, and to optimize the value of NEER's power generation and gas infrastructure assets. NEE and FPL do not utilize hedge accounting for their cash flow and fair value hedges.
With respect to commodities related to NEE's competitive energy business, NEER employs risk management procedures to conduct its activities related to optimizing the value of its power generation and gas infrastructure assets, providing full energy and capacity requirements services primarily to distribution utilities, and engaging in power and gas marketing and trading activities to take advantage of expected future favorable price movements and changes in the expected volatility of prices in the energy markets. These risk management activities involve the use of derivative instruments executed within prescribed limits to manage the risk associated with fluctuating commodity prices. Transactions in derivative instruments are executed on recognized exchanges or via the OTC markets, depending on the most favorable credit terms and market execution factors. For NEER's power generation and gas infrastructure assets, derivative instruments are used to hedge all or a portion of the expected output of these assets. These hedges are designed to reduce the effect of adverse changes in the wholesale forward commodity markets associated with NEER's power generation and gas infrastructure assets. With regard to full energy and capacity requirements services, NEER is required to vary the quantity of energy and related services based on the load demands of the customers served. For this type of transaction, derivative instruments are used to hedge the anticipated electricity quantities required to serve these customers and reduce the effect of unfavorable changes in the forward energy markets. Additionally, NEER takes positions in energy markets based on differences between actual forward market levels and management's view of fundamental market conditions, including supply/demand imbalances, changes in traditional flows of energy, changes in short- and long-term weather patterns and anticipated regulatory and legislative outcomes. NEER uses derivative instruments to realize value from these market dislocations, subject to strict risk management limits around market, operational and credit exposure.
Derivative instruments, when required to be marked to market, are recorded on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. At FPL, substantially all changes in the derivatives' fair value are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability until the contracts are settled, and, upon settlement, any gains or losses are passed through the fuel clause. For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, predominantly NEER, essentially all changes in the derivatives' fair value for power purchases and sales, fuel sales and trading activities are recognized on a net basis in operating revenues; the equity method investees' related activity is recognized in equity in earnings of equity method investees in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. Settlement gains and losses are included within the line items in the condensed consolidated statements of income to which they relate. Transactions for which physical delivery is deemed not to have occurred are presented on a net basis in the condensed consolidated statements of income. For commodity derivatives, NEE believes that, where offsetting positions exist at the same location for the same time, the transactions are considered to have been netted and therefore physical delivery has been deemed not to have occurred for financial reporting purposes. Settlements related to derivative instruments are primarily recognized in net cash provided by operating activities in NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
For interest rate and foreign currency derivative instruments, essentially all changes in the derivatives' fair value, as well as the transaction gain or loss on foreign denominated debt, are recognized in interest expense and the equity method investees' related activity is recognized in equity in earnings of equity method investees in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. At
June 30, 2018
, NEE's AOCI included amounts related to discontinued interest rate cash flow hedges with expiration dates through
March 2035
and foreign currency cash flow hedges with expiration dates through
September 2030
. Approximately
$22 million
of net losses included in AOCI at
June 30, 2018
is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months as the principal and/or interest payments are made. Such amounts assume no change in scheduled principal payments.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
- The tables below present NEE's and FPL's gross derivative positions at
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, as required by disclosure rules. However, the majority of the underlying contracts are subject to master netting agreements and generally would not be contractually settled on a gross basis. Therefore, the tables below also present the derivative positions on a net basis, which reflect the offsetting of positions of certain transactions within the portfolio, the contractual ability to settle contracts under master netting arrangements and the netting of margin cash collateral (see Note 5 - Recurring Fair Value Measurements for netting information), as well as the location of the net derivative position on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Notional Volumes of Derivative Instruments
- The following table represents net notional volumes associated with derivative instruments that are required to be reported at fair value in NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated financial statements. The table includes significant volumes of transactions that have minimal exposure to commodity price changes because they are variably priced agreements. These volumes are only an indication of the commodity exposure that is managed through the use of derivatives. They do not represent net physical asset positions or non-derivative positions and their hedges, nor do they represent NEE’s and FPL’s net economic exposure, but only the net notional derivative positions that fully or partially hedge the related asset positions. NEE and FPL had derivative commodity contracts for the following net notional volumes:

At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, NEE had interest rate contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately
$13.0 billion
and
$12.1 billion
, respectively, and foreign currency contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately
$656 million
and
$718 million
, respectively. In July 2018, NEECH entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of
$3 billion
to manage interest rate risk associated with forecasted debt issuances.
Credit

Risk
-
Related Contingent
Features
- Certain derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features including, among other things, the requirement to maintain an investment grade credit rating from specified credit rating agencies and certain financial ratios, as well as credit-related cross-default and material adverse change triggers. At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, the aggregate fair value of NEE's derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was approximately
$1.6 billion
(
$3 million
for FPL) and
$1.1 billion
(
$3 million
for FPL), respectively.
If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these derivative agreements were triggered, certain subsidiaries of NEE, including FPL, could be required to post collateral or settle contracts according to contractual terms which generally allow netting of contracts in offsetting positions. Certain derivative contracts contain multiple types of credit-related triggers. To the extent these contracts contain a credit ratings downgrade trigger, the maximum exposure is included in the following credit ratings collateral posting requirements. If FPL's and NEECH's credit ratings were downgraded to BBB/Baa2 (a two level downgrade for FPL and a one level downgrade for NEECH from the current lowest applicable rating), applicable NEE subsidiaries would be required to post collateral such that the total posted collateral would be approximately
$125 million
(
none
at
FPL
) at
June 30, 2018
and
$145 million
(
none
at FPL) at
December 31, 2017
.
If FPL's and NEECH's credit ratings were downgraded to below investment grade, applicable NEE subsidiaries would be required to post additional collateral such that the total posted collateral would be approximately
$1.2 billion
(
$45 million
at FPL) at
June 30, 2018
and
$1.2 billion
(
$45 million
at FPL) at
December 31, 2017
. Some derivative contracts do not contain credit ratings downgrade triggers, but do contain provisions that require certain financial measures be maintained and/or have credit-related cross-default triggers. In the event these provisions were triggered, applicable NEE subsidiaries could be required to post additional collateral of up to approximately
$350 million
(
$130 million
at FPL) at
June 30, 2018
and
$210 million
(
$95 million
at FPL) at
December 31, 2017
.
Collateral related to derivatives may be posted in the form of cash or credit support in the normal course of business. At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, applicable NEE subsidiaries have posted approximately
$2 million
(
none
at FPL) and
$2 million
(
none
at FPL), respectively, in cash and
$6 million
(
none
at FPL) and
$20 million
(
none
at FPL), respectively, in the form of letters of credit, each of which could be applied toward the collateral requirements described above. FPL and NEECH have capacity under their credit facilities generally in excess of the collateral requirements described above that would be available to support, among other things, derivative activities. Under the terms of the credit facilities, maintenance of a specific credit rating is not a condition to drawing on these credit facilities, although there are other conditions to drawing on these credit facilities.
Additionally, some contracts contain certain adequate assurance provisions whereby a counterparty may demand additional collateral based on subjective events and/or conditions. Due to the subjective nature of these provisions, NEE and FPL are unable to determine an exact value for these items and they are not included in any of the quantitative disclosures above.
5. Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of assets and liabilities are determined using either unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) or pricing inputs that are observable (Level 2) whenever that information is available and using unobservable inputs (Level 3) to estimate fair value only when relevant observable inputs are not available. NEE and FPL use several different valuation techniques to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities, relying primarily on the market approach of using prices and other market information for
NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
identical and/or comparable assets and liabilities for those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. NEE's and FPL's assessment of the significance of any particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. Non-performance risk, including the consideration of a credit valuation adjustment, is also considered in the determination of fair value for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
Cash Equivalents
and Restricted Cash Equivalents
- NEE and FPL hold investments in money market funds. The fair value of these funds is estimated using a market approach based on current observable market prices.
Special Use Funds and Other Investments
- NEE and FPL hold primarily debt and equity securities directly, as well as indirectly through commingled funds. Substantially all directly held equity securities are valued at their quoted market prices. For directly held debt securities, multiple prices and price types are obtained from pricing vendors whenever possible, which enables cross-provider validations. A primary price source is identified based on asset type, class or issue of each security. Commingled funds, which are similar to mutual funds, are maintained by banks or investment companies and hold certain investments in accordance with a stated set of objectives. The fair value of commingled funds is primarily derived from the quoted prices in active markets of the underlying securities. Because the fund shares are offered to a limited group of investors, they are not considered to be traded in an active market.
Derivative Instruments
- NEE and FPL measure the fair value of commodity contracts using a combination of market and income approaches utilizing prices observed on commodities exchanges and in the OTC markets, or through the use of industry-standard valuation techniques, such as option modeling or discounted cash flows techniques, incorporating both observable and unobservable valuation inputs. The resulting measurements are the best estimate of fair value as represented by the transfer of the asset or liability through an orderly transaction in the marketplace at the measurement date.
Most exchange-traded derivative assets and liabilities are valued directly using unadjusted quoted prices. For exchange-traded derivative assets and liabilities where the principal market is deemed to be inactive based on average daily volumes and open interest, the measurement is established using settlement prices from the exchanges, and therefore considered to be valued using other observable inputs.
NEE, through its subsidiaries, including FPL, also enters into OTC commodity contract derivatives. The majority of these contracts are transacted at liquid trading points, and the prices for these contracts are verified using quoted prices in active markets from exchanges, brokers or pricing services for similar contracts.
NEE, through NEER, also enters into full requirements contracts, which, in most cases, meet the definition of derivatives and are measured at fair value. These contracts typically have one or more inputs that are not observable and are significant to the valuation of the contract. In addition, certain exchange and non-exchange traded derivative options at NEE have one or more significant inputs that are not observable, and are valued using industry-standard option models.
In all cases where NEE and FPL use significant unobservable inputs for the valuation of a commodity contract, consideration is given to the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The primary input to the valuation models for commodity contracts is the forward commodity curve for the respective instruments. Other inputs include, but are not limited to, assumptions about market liquidity, volatility, correlation and contract duration as more fully described below in Significant Unobservable Inputs Used in Recurring Fair Value Measurements. In instances where the reference markets are deemed to be inactive or do not have transactions for a similar contract, the derivative assets and liabilities may be valued using significant other observable inputs and potentially significant unobservable inputs. In such instances, the valuation for these contracts is established using techniques including extrapolation from or interpolation between actively traded contracts, or estimated basis adjustments from liquid trading points. NEE and FPL regularly evaluate and validate the inputs used to determine fair value by a number of methods, consisting of various market price verification procedures, including the use of pricing services and multiple broker quotes to support the market price of the various commodities. In all cases where there are assumptions and models used to generate inputs for valuing derivative assets and liabilities, the review and verification of the assumptions, models and changes to the models are undertaken by individuals that are independent of those responsible for estimating fair value.
NEE uses interest rate contracts and foreign currency contracts to mitigate and adjust interest rate and foreign currency exchange exposure related primarily to certain outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings when deemed appropriate based on market conditions or when required by financing agreements. NEE estimates the fair value of these derivatives using an income approach based on a discounted cash flows valuation technique utilizing the net amount of estimated future cash inflows and outflows related to the agreements.

Significant Unobservable Inputs Used in Recurring Fair Value Measurements
- The valuation of certain commodity contracts requires the use of significant unobservable inputs. All forward price, implied volatility, implied correlation and interest rate inputs used in the valuation of such contracts are directly based on third-party market data, such as broker quotes and exchange settlements, when that data is available. If third-party market data is not available, then industry standard methodologies are used to develop inputs that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs, including some forward prices, implied volatilities and interest rates used for determining fair value are updated daily to reflect the best available market information. Unobservable inputs which are related to observable inputs, such as illiquid portions of forward price or volatility curves, are updated daily as well, using industry standard techniques such as interpolation and extrapolation, combining observable forward inputs supplemented by historical market and other relevant data. Other unobservable inputs, such as implied correlations, customer migration rates from full requirements contracts and some implied volatility curves, are modeled using proprietary models based on historical data and industry standard techniques.
All price, volatility, correlation and customer migration inputs used in valuation are subject to validation by the Trading Risk Management group. The Trading Risk Management group performs a risk management function responsible for assessing credit, market and operational risk impact, reviewing valuation methodology and modeling, confirming transactions, monitoring approval processes and developing and monitoring trading limits. The Trading Risk Management group is separate from the transacting group. For markets where independent third-party data is readily available, validation is conducted daily by directly reviewing this market data against inputs utilized by the transacting group, and indirectly by reviewing daily risk reports. For markets where independent third-party data is not readily available, additional analytical reviews are performed on at least a quarterly basis. These analytical reviews are designed to ensure that all price and volatility curves used for fair valuing transactions are adequately validated each quarter, and are reviewed and approved by the Trading Risk Management group. In addition, other valuation assumptions such as implied correlations and customer migration rates are reviewed and approved by the Trading Risk Management group on a periodic basis. Newly created models used in the valuation process are also subject to testing and approval by the Trading Risk Management group prior to use and established models are reviewed annually, or more often as needed, by the Trading Risk Management group.
On a monthly basis, the Exposure Management Committee (EMC), which is comprised of certain members of senior management, meets with representatives from the Trading Risk Management group and the transacting group to discuss NEE's and FPL's energy risk profile and operations, to review risk reports and to discuss fair value issues as necessary. The EMC develops guidelines required for an appropriate risk management control infrastructure, which includes implementation and monitoring of compliance with Trading Risk Management policy. The EMC executes its risk management responsibilities through direct oversight and delegation of its responsibilities to the Trading Risk Management group, as well as to other corporate and business unit personnel.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of NEE's commodity contracts categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at
June 30, 2018
are as follows:

and
December 31, 2017
, respectively, (
$1,543 million
and
$1,443 million
, respectively, for FPL). The cost basis of equity securities was approximately
$1,521 million
at
December 31, 2017
(
$783 million
for FPL). For FPL's special use funds, consistent with regulatory treatment, changes in fair value, including any other than temporary impairment losses, result in a corresponding adjustment to the related regulatory asset or liability accounts. For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, changes in fair value of debt securities result in a corresponding adjustment to OCI, except for unrealized losses considered to be other than temporary, including any credit losses, which are recognized in other - net in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, changes in fair value of equity securities are recorded in change in unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities held in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds - net in NEE’s condensed consolidated statements of income. The unrealized gains (losses) recognized during the
three and six months ended June 30, 2018
on equity securities held at
June 30, 2018
were
$78 million
and
$37 million
, respectively (
$60 million
and
$37 million
, respectively, for FPL). Debt securities included in the nuclear decommissioning funds have a weighted-average maturity at
June 30, 2018
of approximately
nine
years at both NEE and FPL. FPL's storm fund primarily consists of debt securities with a weighted-average maturity at
June 30, 2018
of approximately
one
year. The cost of securities sold is determined using the specific identification method.
Realized gains and losses and proceeds from the sale or maturity of available for sale securities are as follows:

Regulations issued by the FERC and the NRC provide general risk management guidelines to protect nuclear decommissioning funds and to allow such funds to earn a reasonable return. The FERC regulations prohibit, among other investments, investments in any securities of NEE or its subsidiaries, affiliates or associates, excluding investments tied to market indices or mutual funds. Similar restrictions applicable to the decommissioning funds for NEER's nuclear plants are included in the NRC operating licenses for those facilities or in NRC regulations applicable to NRC licensees not in cost-of-service environments. With respect to the decommissioning fund for Seabrook, decommissioning fund contributions and withdrawals are also regulated by the New Hampshire Nuclear Decommissioning Financing Committee pursuant to New Hampshire law.
The nuclear decommissioning reserve funds are managed by investment managers who must comply with the guidelines of NEE and FPL and the rules of the applicable regulatory authorities. The funds' assets are invested giving consideration to taxes, liquidity, risk, diversification and other prudent investment objectives.
Financial Instruments Accounting Standards Update
- Effective January 1, 2018, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update which modifies guidance for financial instruments and makes certain changes to presentation and disclosure requirements.
NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
The standards update requires that equity investments (except investments accounted for under the equity method and investments that are consolidated) be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. This standards update primarily impacts the equity securities in NEER's special use funds and is expected to result in increased earnings volatility in future periods based on market conditions. NEE and FPL adopted this standards update using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings on January 1, 2018. Upon adoption, NEE reclassified net unrealized after-tax gains of approximately
$312 million
from AOCI to retained earnings. The implementation of this standards update had no impact on FPL as changes in the fair value of equity securities in FPL's special use funds are deferred as regulatory assets or liabilities pursuant to accounting guidance for regulated operations.
6. Income Taxes
NEE's effective income tax rates for the
three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
were approximately
25%
and
26%
, respectively. The rates for both periods reflect state income taxes net of federal income tax benefits, and the benefits of PTCs of approximately
$21 million
and
$30 million
, respectively, related to NEER's wind projects and ITCs of approximately
$33 million
and
$42 million
, respectively, related to solar and certain wind projects at NEER.
NEE's effective income tax rates for the
six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
were approximately
25%
and
29%
, respectively. The rates for both periods reflect state income taxes net of federal income tax benefits, as well as the benefits of PTCs of approximately
$44 million
and
$58 million
, respectively, related to NEER's wind projects. The rates for both periods also reflect ITCs and, in 2017, deferred income taxes associated with grants under the Recovery Act (convertible ITCs) totaling approximately
$70 million
and
$169 million
, respectively, related to solar and certain wind projects at NEER. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2018, NEE recorded an income tax charge of approximately $
125 million
related to an adjustment to differential membership interests primarily as a result of the change in federal income tax rates effective January 1, 2018 (see Note 11 - Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets).
NEE recognizes PTCs as wind energy is generated and sold based on a per kWh rate prescribed in applicable federal and state statutes, which may differ significantly from amounts computed, on a quarterly basis, using an overall effective income tax rate anticipated for the full year. NEE uses this method of recognizing PTCs for specific reasons, including that PTCs are an integral part of the financial viability of most wind projects and a fundamental component of such wind projects' results of operations. PTCs, as well as ITCs and deferred income taxes associated with convertible ITCs, can significantly affect NEE's effective income tax rate depending on the amount of pretax income. The amount of PTCs recognized can be significantly affected by wind generation and by the roll off of PTCs after
ten years
of production.
On December 22, 2017, tax reform legislation was signed into law which, among other things, reduced the federal corporate income tax rate from
35%
to
21%
effective January 1, 2018. As a result, NEE, including FPL, performed an analysis to preliminarily revalue its deferred income taxes and included an estimate of changes in the balances in NEE's and FPL's December 31, 2017 financial statements. At December 31, 2017, the revaluation reduced NEE’s net deferred income tax liabilities by approximately
$6.5 billion
, of which
$4.5 billion
related to net deferred income tax liabilities at FPL and the remaining
$2 billion
related to net deferred income tax liabilities at NEER. The
$2 billion
reduction in NEER’s deferred income tax liabilities increased NEER’s 2017 net income. The
$4.5 billion
reduction in FPL’s deferred income tax liabilities was recorded as a regulatory liability. While NEE and FPL continue to believe that the provisional tax reform adjustments are reasonable estimates of the effects on its existing deferred taxes, additional analysis and detailed reviews are still being performed to finalize the accounting for the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the enactment of tax reform. Effective January 1, 2018, NEE early adopted an accounting standards update that provided entities the option to reclassify certain tax effects from AOCI to retained earnings as a result of tax reform. Upon adoption, NEE reclassified approximately
$16 million
of tax benefits from AOCI to retained earnings.
7. Pending Acquisitions
In May 2018, NEE and a wholly owned subsidiary of NEE (purchaser) entered into
three
separate agreements with The Southern Company and/or certain of its affiliates (Southern) to acquire Gulf Power Company (Gulf Power), Florida City Gas (FCG) and the entities holding Southern’s ownership interests in
two
natural gas generation facilities. The acquisitions, as further described below, are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in each of the respective agreements.
|
|
•
|
Gulf Power - The purchaser expects to acquire the outstanding common shares of Gulf Power for approximately
$5.75 billion
(
$4.35 billion
in cash plus the assumption of approximately
$1.4 billion
of Gulf Power debt), subject to certain adjustments. Gulf Power serves approximately
450,000
customers in
eight
counties throughout northwest Florida and has roughly
9,500
miles of power lines and
2,300
MW of electric generating capacity.
|
|
|
•
|
FCG - The purchaser expects to acquire the outstanding common shares of the entity that owns FCG for approximately
$530 million
in cash, subject to certain adjustments. FCG serves approximately
110,000
residential and commercial natural gas customers in Florida's Miami-Dade, Brevard, St. Lucie and Indian River counties with
3,700
miles of natural gas pipeline.

|
|
•
|
Natural Gas Generation Facilities - The purchaser expects to acquire Southern's interest in an entity that owns a
65%
interest in Stanton Energy Center, an approximately
660
MW combined-cycle electric generation facility located near Orlando, Florida, and Southern's interest in an entity that indirectly owns Oleander Power Project, a
791
MW natural gas-fired, simple-cycle combustion turbine electric generation facility located near Cocoa, Florida, for approximately
$195 million
in cash, subject to certain adjustments.
|
The acquisitions of Gulf Power and the ownership interests in the
two
natural gas generation facilities are subject to, among other things, receipt of required regulatory approvals, including approvals from the FERC. Each of the
three
agreements may be terminated by either the purchaser or Southern under certain circumstances. NEE expects to close on the acquisition of FCG in the third quarter of 2018, and expects to close on the acquisitions of Gulf Power and the natural gas generation facilities in the first half of 2019. NEE intends to finance the approximately
$5.1 billion
cash purchase price through the issuance of debt.
8. Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)
At
June 30, 2018
, NEE had
twenty-seven
VIEs which it consolidated and had interests in certain other VIEs which it did not consolidate.
FPL
- FPL is considered the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, a VIE that is a wholly owned bankruptcy remote special purpose subsidiary that it formed in 2007 for the sole purpose of issuing storm-recovery bonds pursuant to the securitization provisions of the Florida Statutes and a financing order of the FPSC. FPL is considered the primary beneficiary because FPL has the power to direct the significant activities of the VIE, and its equity investment, which is subordinate to the bondholder's interest in the VIE, is at risk. Storm restoration costs incurred by FPL during 2005 and 2004 exceeded the amount in FPL's funded storm and property insurance reserve, resulting in a storm reserve deficiency. In 2007, the VIE issued
$652 million
aggregate principal amount of senior secured bonds (storm-recovery bonds), primarily for the after-tax equivalent of the total of FPL's unrecovered balance of the 2004 storm restoration costs, the 2005 storm restoration costs and to reestablish FPL's storm and property insurance reserve. In connection with this financing, net proceeds, after debt issuance costs, to the VIE (approximately
$644 million
) were used to acquire the storm-recovery property, which includes the right to impose, collect and receive a storm-recovery charge from all customers receiving electric transmission or distribution service from FPL under rate schedules approved by the FPSC or under special contracts, certain other rights and interests that arise under the financing order issued by the FPSC and certain other collateral pledged by the VIE that issued the bonds. The storm-recovery bonds are payable only from and are secured by the storm-recovery property. The bondholders have no recourse to the general credit of FPL. The assets of the VIE were approximately
$106 million
and
$148 million
at
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, respectively, and consisted primarily of storm-recovery property, which are included in both current and noncurrent regulatory assets on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The liabilities of the VIE were approximately
$110 million
and
$147 million
at
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, respectively, and consisted primarily of storm-recovery bonds, which are included in current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
NEER
- NEE consolidates
twenty-six
NEER VIEs. NEER is considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since NEER controls the most significant activities of these VIEs, including operations and maintenance, and has the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs.
Prior to January 1, 2018,
a
subsidiary of NEER was the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidated NEP, which consolidated NEP OpCo because of NEP’s controlling interest as the general partner of NEP OpCo. At
December 31, 2017
, NEE owned a controlling non-economic general partner interest in NEP and a limited partner interest in NEP OpCo, and presented limited partner interests in NEP and NEP OpCo as noncontrolling interests in NEE's consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2017, NEE owned common units of NEP OpCo representing a noncontrolling interest in NEP's operating projects of approximately
65.1%
. The assets and liabilities of NEP were approximately
$8.4 billion
and
$6.2 billion
, respectively, at
December 31, 2017
, and primarily consisted of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt. During the third quarter of 2017, changes to NEP's governance structure were made that, among other things, enhanced NEP unitholder governance rights. As a result of these governance changes, NEP is no longer a VIE and NEP was deconsolidated from NEE in January 2018 (see Note 2) resulting in NEE no longer indirectly consolidating NEP OpCo. NEP OpCo continues to be a VIE and NEE records its noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo as an equity method investment (See Other below).
A
NEER VIE consolidates two entities which own and operate natural gas/oil electric generation facilities with the capability of producing
110
MW. These entities sell their electric output under power sales contracts to a third party, with expiration dates in
2018
and
2020
. The power sales contracts provide the offtaker the ability to dispatch the facilities and require the offtaker to absorb the cost of fuel. The entities have third-party debt which is secured by liens against the generation facilities and the other assets of these entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NEER for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were approximately
$74 million
and
$23 million
, respectively, at
June 30, 2018
and
$89 million
and
$29 million
, respectively, at
December 31, 2017
, and consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt.
NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
Two
indirect subsidiaries of NEER each contributed, to a NEP subsidiary, an approximately
50
% ownership interest in
three
entities which own and operate solar PV facilities with the capability of producing a total of approximately
277
MW. Each of the
two
indirect subsidiaries of NEER is considered a VIE since the non-managing members have no substantive rights over the managing members, and is consolidated by NEER. These
three
entities sell their electric output to third parties under power sales contracts with expiration dates in
2035
and
2036
. The three entities have third-party debt which is secured by liens against the assets of the entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NEER for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs were approximately
$550 million
and
$569 million
, respectively, at
June 30, 2018
and
$548 million
and
$594 million
, respectively, at
December 31, 2017
, and consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt.
In February 2018, NEER sold a special purpose entity for net cash proceeds of approximately
$71 million
. In connection with the sale and the related consolidating state income tax effects, a gain of approximately
$50 million
(approximately
$37 million
after tax) was recorded in gains on disposal of investments and other property - net in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income during the
six months ended June 30, 2018
. Prior to the sale, the special purpose entity had insufficient equity at risk and was considered a VIE. The entity provided a loan in the form of a note receivable (see Note 5 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments Recorded at Other than Fair Value) to an unrelated third party, and also issued senior secured bonds which are collateralized by the note receivable. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were approximately
$490 million
and
$502 million
, respectively, at
December 31, 2017
, and consisted primarily of the note receivable (included in noncurrent other assets and classified as held for sale) and long-term debt.
The other
twenty-three
NEER VIEs that are consolidated relate to certain subsidiaries which have sold differential membership interests in entities which own and operate wind electric generation and solar
PV
facilities with the capability of producing a total of approximately
6,035
MW and
374
MW, respectively. These entities sell their electric output either under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from
2018
through
2051
or in the spot market. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. Certain entities have third-party debt which is secured by liens against the generation facilities and the other assets of these entities or by pledges of NEER's ownership interest in these entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NEER for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs totaled approximately
$9.5 billion
and
$1.1 billion
, respectively, at
June 30, 2018
. There were thirty-one consolidated VIEs at
December 31, 2017
which included seven NEP-owned projects prior to the NEP deconsolidation; the assets and liabilities of those VIEs totaled approximately
$13.1 billion
and
$6.9 billion
, respectively. At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, the assets and liabilities of the VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt, and also deferral related to differential membership interests at
December 31, 2017
.
Other
- At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, several NEE subsidiaries had investments totaling approximately
$2,717 million
(
$2,246 million
at FPL) and
$2,634 million
(
$2,195 million
at FPL), respectively, which are included in special use funds and noncurrent other assets on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets and in special use funds on FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets. These investments represented primarily commingled funds and mortgage-backed securities. NEE subsidiaries, including FPL, are not the primary beneficiaries and therefore do not consolidate any of these entities because they do not control any of the ongoing activities of these entities, were not involved in the initial design of these entities and do not have a controlling financial interest in these entities.
Certain subsidiaries of NEE have noncontrolling interests in entities accounted for under the equity method. These entities are limited partnerships or similar entity structures in which the limited partners or nonmanaging members do not have substantive rights, and therefore are considered VIEs. NEE is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have a controlling financial interest in these entities, and therefore does not consolidate any of these entities. Beginning in January 2018, as a result of the deconsolidation of NEP, NEE records its noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo as an equity method investment. NEE’s investment in these entities totaled approximately
$4,733 million
and
$248 million
at
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, respectively. Subsidiaries of NEE had committed to invest an additional approximately
$65 million
and
$75 million
in
three
of these entities at
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, respectively.

11. Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Revenue and Rates -
In May 2018, the Florida Supreme Court affirmed the FPSC’s final order approving the 2016 rate agreement, which had been appealed by the Sierra Club.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
- Effective January 1, 2018, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update that clarified the definition of a business. The revised guidance affects the evaluation of whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition or disposition of an asset or a business. NEE and FPL adopted this guidance on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2018.
Restricted Cash
- In the fourth quarter of 2017, NEE and FPL early adopted an accounting standards update which requires that restricted cash be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows. NEE and FPL adopted the standards update retrospectively, which adoption did not have a material impact on NEE’s or FPL’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
At
June 30, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, NEE had approximately
$258 million
(
$74 million
for FPL) and
$269 million
(
$141 million
for FPL), respectively, of restricted cash, of which approximately
$245 million
(
$61 million
for FPL) and
$247 million
(
$128 million
for FPL), respectively, is included in current other assets and the remaining balance is included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash is primarily related to debt service payments, bond proceeds held for construction at FPL and margin cash collateral requirements. In addition, where offsetting positions exist, restricted cash related to margin cash collateral is netted against derivative instruments, which totaled
$53 million
at
June 30, 2018
. See Note 4.
Leases
- In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which requires, among other things, that lessees recognize a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments, and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) (new lease standard). The new lease standard also requires new qualitative and quantitative disclosures for both lessees and lessors. The new lease standard will be effective for NEE and FPL beginning January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted.
NEE and FPL are currently reviewing their portfolio of contracts and evaluating the proper application of the new lease standard to these contracts in order to determine the impact the adoption will have on their consolidated financial statements, including timing of adoption. NEE and FPL are implementing a number of system enhancements to facilitate the identification, tracking and reporting of leases based upon the requirements of the new lease standard. NEE and FPL are continuing to assess the transition options and practical expedients and monitoring industry implementation issues.
Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets
- Effective January 1, 2018, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update regarding the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets using the modified retrospective approach, resulting in cumulative effects being recognized on January 1, 2018. This standards update affects the accounting and related financial statement presentation for the sales of differential membership interests to third-party investors and the sales of NEER assets to indirect subsidiaries of NEP. The adoption of this standards update did not have an impact on FPL.
For the sales of differential membership interests to third-party investors, NEE recorded an increase to retained earnings of approximately
$34 million
(
$56 million
pretax) and a reduction to additional paid-in capital of
$77 million
(
$59 million
after tax) on January 1, 2018. In addition, the liability reflected as deferral related to differential membership interests - VIEs on NEE's consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2017 was reclassified to noncontrolling interests. Beginning in 2018, as the third-party investors receive their portion of the economic attributes of the related facilities, NEE records such amounts as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Prior to the adoption of this standards update, the income related to differential membership interests was recognized in benefits associated with differential membership interests - net in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the
six months ended June 30, 2018
includes
NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
approximately
$497 million
(
$373 million
after tax) related to a reduction of differential membership interests as a result of the change in federal income tax rates effective January 1, 2018.
Also upon adoption of the standards update, the profit sharing liability associated with the sales of NEER assets to NEP was eliminated and NEE recorded an increase to additional paid-in capital of approximately
$842 million
(
$652 million
after tax) and a reduction to retained earnings of approximately
$52 million
(
$69 million
pretax) on January 1, 2018. Due to the deconsolidation of NEP, the previous accounting guidance would not have had an impact on NEE's 2018 financial statements, but rather the profit sharing liability would have increased the gain on NEP deconsolidation.
Assets and Liabilities Associated with Assets Held for Sale -
In January 2017, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of NEE completed the sale of its membership interests in its fiber-optic telecommunications business for net cash proceeds of approximately
$1.1 billion
, after repayment of
$370 million
of related long-term debt. In connection with the sale and the related consolidating state income tax effects, a gain of approximately
$1.1 billion
(approximately
$685 million
after tax) was recorded in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income during the
six months ended June 30, 2017
and is included in gains on disposal of a business/assets - net.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
- NEE and its subsidiaries have made commitments in connection with a portion of their projected capital expenditures. Capital expenditures at FPL include, among other things, the cost for construction or acquisition of additional facilities and equipment to meet customer demand, as well as capital improvements to and maintenance of existing facilities and the procurement of nuclear fuel. At NEER, capital expenditures include, among other things, the cost, including capitalized interest, for construction and development of wind and solar projects and the procurement of nuclear fuel, as well as equity contributions to joint ventures for the construction of natural gas pipeline assets. Capital expenditures for Corporate and Other primarily include the cost to maintain existing transmission facilities at NEET.
At
June 30, 2018
, estimated capital expenditures for the remainder of 2018 through 2022 for which applicable internal approvals (and also, if required, regulatory approvals such as FPSC approvals for FPL) have been received were as follows:

FPL made an approximately
$90 million
payment to JEA, the
80%
owner of St. Johns River Power Park coal units (SJRPP), in connection with the shutdown of SJRPP in January 2018, which had the effect of terminating a
375
MW take-or-pay purchased power contract, retiring SJRPP and eliminating FPL's
20%
ownership interest. In connection with the FPSC's approval of the retirement, FPL recorded a regulatory asset of approximately
$90 million
at
December 31, 2017
, which is being amortized over the remaining life of the take-or-pay purchased power contract (October 2021) and recovered through the capacity clause. In January 2018, NEE and FPL reclassified the SJRPP net book value of approximately
$191 million
to a regulatory asset. Approximately
$150 million
of the regulatory asset will be amortized over
15 years
in base rates beginning July 1, 2018 and the remainder will be amortized over
10 years
through the environmental cost recovery clause beginning when FPL's base rates are next adjusted in a general base rate case. In addition, in connection with the shutdown of the plant, FPL had regulatory liabilities of approximately
$62 million
at
December 31, 2017
, which is being refunded to customers through the capacity clause over the remaining life of the take-or-pay purchased power contract.
Insurance
- Liability for accidents at nuclear power plants is governed by the Price-Anderson Act, which limits the liability of nuclear reactor owners to the amount of insurance available from both private sources and an industry retrospective payment plan. In accordance with this Act, NEE maintains
$450 million
of private liability insurance per site, which is the maximum obtainable, and participates in a secondary financial protection system, which provides up to
$12.6 billion
of liability insurance coverage per incident at any nuclear reactor in the U.S. Under the secondary financial protection system, NEE is subject to retrospective assessments of up to
$1.0 billion
(
$509 million
for FPL), plus any applicable taxes, per incident at any nuclear reactor in the U.S., payable at a rate not to exceed
$152 million
(
$76 million
for FPL) per incident per year. NEE and FPL are contractually entitled to recover a proportionate share of such assessments from the owners of minority interests in Seabrook, Duane Arnold and St. Lucie Unit No. 2, which approximates
$15 million
,
$38 million
and
$19 million
, plus any applicable taxes, per incident, respectively.
NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
NEE participates in a nuclear insurance mutual company that provides
$2.75 billion
of limited insurance coverage per occurrence per site for property damage, decontamination and premature decommissioning risks at its nuclear plants and a sublimit of
$1.5 billion
for non-nuclear perils, except for Duane Arnold which has a sublimit of
$1.0 billion
. NEE participates in co-insurance of
10%
of the first
$400 million
of losses per site per occurrence. The proceeds from such insurance, however, must first be used for reactor stabilization and site decontamination before they can be used for plant repair. NEE also participates in an insurance program that provides limited coverage for replacement power costs if a nuclear plant is out of service for an extended period of time because of an accident. In the event of an accident at one of NEE's or another participating insured's nuclear plants, NEE could be assessed up to
$177 million
(
$108 million
for FPL), plus any applicable taxes, in retrospective premiums in a policy year. NEE and FPL are contractually entitled to recover a proportionate share of such assessments from the owners of minority interests in Seabrook, Duane Arnold and St. Lucie Unit No. 2, which approximates
$2 million
,
$5 million
and
$4 million
, plus any applicable taxes, respectively.
Due to the high cost and limited coverage available from third-party insurers, NEE does not have property insurance coverage for a substantial portion of either its transmission and distribution property or natural gas pipeline assets. If FPL's future storm restoration costs exceed the storm reserve, FPL may recover storm restoration costs, subject to prudence review by the FPSC, either through surcharges approved by the FPSC or through securitization provisions pursuant to Florida law.
In the event of a loss, the amount of insurance available might not be adequate to cover property damage and other expenses incurred. Uninsured losses and other expenses, to the extent not recovered from customers in the case of FPL, would be borne by NEE and FPL and could have a material adverse effect on NEE's and FPL's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
13. Segment Information
