Executive Summary

NextEra Energy demonstrates high strategic maturity through its Real Zero 2045 goal, which notably excludes the use of carbon offsets. The group distinguishes itself through the application of an internal carbon price in resource planning since 2007 and a 50% weighting of operational and sustainability metrics in annual executive incentives. With industry-leading physical risk resilience via its Florida Power & Light hardening program and a massive 140 GW solar and storage pipeline, NextEra is a primary global benchmark for utility-scale decarbonization.
