Florida utility to refund $5M to customers over nuclear plant outages
(The Center Square) — The Florida Public Service Commission approved a settlement Tuesday that will allow Florida Power & Light to provide its customers with a reimbursement.
FPL will reimburse its customers $5 million after they were charged "replacement" power costs when the Turkey Point and St. Lucie nuclear plants experienced outages between 2020 and 2022.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is leading a new, innovative project to remove invasive aquatic plants and evaluate nutrients removed to improve water quality in Lake Okeechobee in south Florida.
