FPL Seeks Slight Rate Decrease By July
May 20, 2023
Florida Power & Light customers could see a small decrease in their bills beginning in July.
The utility submitted a Florida Public Service Commission proposal on Friday seeking to reduce the fuel cost portion of bills by a total of $256 million reflecting continued downward revisions in projected natural gas costs for 2023 after last year’s high levels.
FPL customers in Northwest Florida using a 1,000 kilowatt hours average would see their bill drop from $158.86 in May to $154.91 in July. In the rest of the state, FPL customers will see their rates for 1,000-kilowatt hours drop from $139.95 to $136.
“This is more positive news for our customers,” said Armando Pimentel, president and CEO of FPL. “We know that every dollar counts for our customers, and we are pleased to propose another rate reduction.”

this is soooo absurd that you would think they would be embarrassed to even announce it!! a little over 2 bucks —when they have become a monopoly which is against the FEDERAL law AND they are taking over even more of fl!!! give me my gulf power where I had SOME control!!!
I love EREC
These people are straight up thieves. How is it legal to take over for Gulf Power and raise bills so high it doubles or triples some residents’ bill? It seriously blows my mind that they were allowed to just come in and do this and nobody protects us. It’s bad enough with the homeowners insurance increases but tag on this and the cost of living increase and it’s seriously criminal.
Because they are criminals. And there is nothing we can do.
GREAT
Now I can afford a gallon of gas
They want us to subsidize all the solar farms they are building.
Why not lower NW Florida to match existinf south Florida cost$139.95. NW does have all those solar farms. Balance the scales FPL
Why is the rate here higher than the rest of Florida?
