FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, strategies, future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as may result, are expected to, will continue, is anticipated, believe, will, could, should, would, estimated, may, plan, potential, future, projection, goals, target, outlook, predict and intend or words of similar meaning) are not statements of historical facts and may be forward looking. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties. Accordingly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and are accompanied by, the following important factors (in addition to any assumptions and other factors referred to specifically in connection with such forward-looking statements) that could have a significant impact on NEE's and/or FPL's operations and financial results, and could cause NEE's and/or FPL's actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of NEE and/or FPL in this combined Form 10-Q, in presentations, on their respective websites, in response to questions or otherwise.
Regulatory, Legislative and Legal Risks

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially adversely affected by the extensive regulation of their business.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected if they are unable to recover in a timely manner any significant amount of costs, a return on certain assets or a reasonable return on invested capital through base rates, cost recovery clauses, other regulatory mechanisms or otherwise.

• | Regulatory decisions that are important to NEE and FPL may be materially adversely affected by political, regulatory and economic factors.

• | FPL's use of derivative instruments could be subject to prudence challenges and, if found imprudent, could result in disallowances of cost recovery for such use by the FPSC.

• | Any reductions or modifications to, or the elimination of, governmental incentives or policies that support utility scale renewable energy, including, but not limited to, tax laws, policies and incentives, renewable portfolio standards or feed-in tariffs, or the imposition of additional taxes or other assessments on renewable energy, could result in, among other items, the lack of a satisfactory market for the development and/or financing of new renewable energy projects, NEER abandoning the development of renewable energy projects, a loss of NEER's investments in renewable energy projects and reduced project returns, any of which could have a material adverse effect on NEE's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected as a result of new or revised laws, regulations, interpretations or ballot or regulatory initiatives.

• | NEE and FPL are subject to numerous environmental laws, regulations and other standards that may result in capital expenditures, increased operating costs and various liabilities, and may require NEE and FPL to limit or eliminate certain operations.

• | NEE's and FPL's business could be negatively affected by federal or state laws or regulations mandating new or additional limits on the production of greenhouse gas emissions.

• | Extensive federal regulation of the operations and businesses of NEE and FPL exposes NEE and FPL to significant and increasing compliance costs and may also expose them to substantial monetary penalties and other sanctions for compliance failures.

• | Changes in tax laws, guidance or policies, including but not limited to changes in corporate income tax rates, as well as judgments and estimates used in the determination of tax-related asset and liability amounts, could materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially adversely affected due to adverse results of litigation.

Development and Operational Risks

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could suffer if NEE and FPL do not proceed with projects under development or are unable to complete the construction of, or capital improvements to, electric generation, transmission and distribution facilities, gas infrastructure facilities or other facilities on schedule or within budget.

• | NEE and FPL face risks related to project siting, financing, construction, permitting, governmental approvals and the negotiation of project development agreements that may impede their development and operating activities.

• | The operation and maintenance of NEE's and FPL's electric generation, transmission and distribution facilities, gas infrastructure facilities, retail gas distribution system in Florida and other facilities are subject to many operational risks, the consequences of which could have a material adverse effect on NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

4

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be negatively affected by a lack of growth or slower growth in the number of customers or in customer usage.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects can be materially adversely affected by weather conditions, including, but not limited to, the impact of severe weather.

• | Threats of terrorism and catastrophic events that could result from terrorism, cyberattacks, or individuals and/or groups attempting to disrupt NEE's and FPL's business, or the businesses of third parties, may materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | The ability of NEE and FPL to obtain insurance and the terms of any available insurance coverage could be materially adversely affected by international, national, state or local events and company-specific events, as well as the financial condition of insurers. NEE's and FPL's insurance coverage does not provide protection against all significant losses.

• | NEE invests in gas and oil producing and transmission assets through NEER’s gas infrastructure business. The gas infrastructure business is exposed to fluctuating market prices of natural gas, natural gas liquids, oil and other energy commodities. A prolonged period of low gas and oil prices could impact NEER’s gas infrastructure business and cause NEER to delay or cancel certain gas infrastructure projects and could result in certain projects becoming impaired, which could materially adversely affect NEE's results of operations.

• | If supply costs necessary to provide NEER's full energy and capacity requirement services are not favorable, operating costs could increase and materially adversely affect NEE's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | Due to the potential for significant volatility in market prices for fuel, electricity and renewable and other energy commodities, NEER's inability or failure to manage properly or hedge effectively the commodity risks within its portfolios could materially adversely affect NEE's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | Reductions in the liquidity of energy markets may restrict the ability of NEE to manage its operational risks, which, in turn, could negatively affect NEE's results of operations.

• | NEE's and FPL's hedging and trading procedures and associated risk management tools may not protect against significant losses.

• | If price movements significantly or persistently deviate from historical behavior, NEE's and FPL's risk management tools associated with their hedging and trading procedures may not protect against significant losses.

• | If power transmission or natural gas, nuclear fuel or other commodity transportation facilities are unavailable or disrupted, the ability for subsidiaries of NEE, including FPL, to sell and deliver power or natural gas may be limited.

• | NEE and FPL are subject to credit and performance risk from customers, hedging counterparties and vendors.

• | NEE and FPL could recognize financial losses or a reduction in operating cash flows if a counterparty fails to perform or make payments in accordance with the terms of derivative contracts or if NEE or FPL is required to post margin cash collateral under derivative contracts.

• | NEE and FPL are highly dependent on sensitive and complex information technology systems, and any failure or breach of those systems could have a material adverse effect on their business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | NEE's and FPL's retail businesses are subject to the risk that sensitive customer data may be compromised, which could result in a material adverse impact to their reputation and/or have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of NEE and FPL.

• | NEE and FPL could recognize financial losses as a result of volatility in the market values of derivative instruments and limited liquidity in OTC markets.

• | NEE and FPL may be materially adversely affected by negative publicity.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected if they are unable to maintain, negotiate or renegotiate franchise agreements on acceptable terms with municipalities and counties in Florida.

• | NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected by work strikes or stoppages and increasing personnel costs.

• | NEE's ability to successfully identify, complete and integrate acquisitions is subject to significant risks, including, but not limited to, the effect of increased competition for acquisitions resulting from the consolidation of the energy industry.

Nuclear Generation Risks

• | The operation and maintenance of NEE's and FPL's nuclear generation facilities involve environmental, health and financial risks that could result in fines or the closure of the facilities and in increased costs and capital expenditures.

• | In the event of an incident at any nuclear generation facility in the U.S. or at certain nuclear generation facilities in Europe, NEE and FPL could be assessed significant retrospective assessments and/or retrospective insurance premiums as a result of their participation in a secondary financial protection system and nuclear insurance mutual companies.

5

• | NRC orders or new regulations related to increased security measures and any future safety requirements promulgated by the NRC could require NEE and FPL to incur substantial operating and capital expenditures at their nuclear generation facilities and/or result in reduced revenues.

• | The inability to operate any of NEE's or FPL's nuclear generation units through the end of their respective operating licenses could have a material adverse effect on NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

• | NEE's and FPL's nuclear units are periodically removed from service to accommodate planned refueling and maintenance outages, and for other purposes. If planned outages last longer than anticipated or if there are unplanned outages, NEE's and FPL's results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Liquidity, Capital Requirements and Common Stock Risks

• | Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit and capital markets, among other factors, may negatively affect NEE's and FPL's ability to fund their liquidity and capital needs and to meet their growth objectives, and can also materially adversely affect the results of operations and financial condition of NEE and FPL.

• | NEE's, NEECH's and FPL's inability to maintain their current credit ratings may materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's liquidity and results of operations, limit the ability of NEE and FPL to grow their business, and increase interest costs.

• | NEE's and FPL's liquidity may be impaired if their credit providers are unable to fund their credit commitments to the companies or to maintain their current credit ratings.

• | Poor market performance and other economic factors could affect NEE's defined benefit pension plan's funded status, which may materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and prospects.

• | Poor market performance and other economic factors could adversely affect the asset values of NEE's and FPL's nuclear decommissioning funds, which may materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

• | Certain of NEE's investments are subject to changes in market value and other risks, which may materially adversely affect NEE's liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

• | NEE may be unable to meet its ongoing and future financial obligations and to pay dividends on its common stock if its subsidiaries are unable to pay upstream dividends or repay funds to NEE.

• | NEE may be unable to meet its ongoing and future financial obligations and to pay dividends on its common stock if NEE is required to perform under guarantees of obligations of its subsidiaries.

• | NEP may not be able to access sources of capital on commercially reasonable terms, which would have a material adverse effect on its ability to consummate future acquisitions and on the value of NEE’s limited partner interest in NEP OpCo.

• | Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit and capital markets may exert downward pressure on the market price of NEE's common stock.

Coronavirus Pandemic Risks

• | The coronavirus pandemic may have a material adverse impact on NEE’s and FPL's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

These factors should be read together with the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in NEE's and FPL's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (2019 Form 10-K) and Part II, Item 1A.

NEXTERA ENERGY, INC. AND FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2019 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
FPL and NEER generate substantially all of NEE’s operating revenues, which primarily include revenues from contracts with customers, as well as derivative and lease transactions at NEER. 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. NEE’s revenue from contracts with customers was approximately $4.9 billion ($3.4 billion at FPL) and $4.9 billion ($3.5 billion at FPL) for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $12.9 billion ($8.8 billion at FPL) and $13.2 billion ($9.2 billion at FPL) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. NEE's and FPL's receivables are primarily associated with revenues earned from contracts with customers, as well as derivative and lease transactions at NEER, 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 revenues are 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 are 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. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, FPL's unbilled revenues amounted to approximately $468 million and $389 million, respectively, and are included in customer receivables on NEE's and FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
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 2020 to 2053, 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 which primarily relate to electric capacity sales associated with ISO annual auctions through 2024 and certain power purchase agreements with maturity dates through 2034. At September 30, 2020, NEER expects to record approximately $870 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
NextEra Energy Resources provides management, administrative and transportation and fuel management services to NEP and its subsidiaries under various agreements (service agreements). NextEra Energy Resources is also party to a cash sweep and credit support (CSCS) agreement with a subsidiary of NEP. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the cash sweep amounts (due to NEP and its subsidiaries) held in accounts belonging to NextEra Energy Resources or its subsidiaries were approximately $82 million and $12 million, respectively, and are included in accounts payable. Fee income related to the CSCS agreement and the service agreements totaled approximately $31 million and $27 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $88 million and $75 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and is included in operating revenues in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. Amounts due from NEP of approximately $61 million and $53 million are included in other receivables and $33 million and $33 million are included in noncurrent other assets at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Under the CSCS agreement, NEECH or NextEra Energy Resources guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or surety bonds totaling approximately $647 million at September 30, 2020 primarily related to obligations on behalf of NEP's subsidiaries with maturity dates ranging from 2020 to 2059 and included 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 sheets at fair value. At September 30, 2020, approximately $31 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.
In June 2019, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources completed the sale of ownership interests in certain wind and solar generation facilities to a NEP subsidiary. See Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses.
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 income for the plans are as follows:

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 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. 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, 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. In addition, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, NEE reclassified from AOCI approximately $23 million ($3 million after tax) to gains on disposal of businesses/assets - net (see Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses) and $8 million ($6 million after tax) to interest expense, respectively, because it became probable that related future transactions being hedged would not occur. At September 30, 2020, 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 $8 million of net losses included in AOCI at September 30, 2020 are 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 September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 the related 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:

|  | September 30, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
Commodity Type |  | NEE |  | FPL |  | NEE |  | FPL

Oil |  | (14 | ) |  | barrels |  | — |  |  |  |  | (13 | ) |  | barrels |  | — |  |  |

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, NEE had interest rate contracts with a net notional amount of approximately $10.5 billion and $8.9 billion, respectively, and foreign currency contracts with a net notional amount of approximately $957 million and $1.0 billion, respectively.
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 September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate fair value of NEE's derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was approximately $2.1 billion ($12 million for FPL) and $1.7 billion ($12 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 three 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 $95 million (none at FPL) at September 30, 2020 and $215 million (none at FPL) at December 31, 2019. 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 $1.1 billion ($70 million at FPL) at September 30, 2020 and $1.2 billion ($35 million at FPL) at December 31, 2019. 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 $1.1 billion ($95 million at FPL) at September 30, 2020 and $590 million ($75 million at FPL) at December 31, 2019.
Collateral related to derivatives may be posted in the form of cash or credit support in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, applicable NEE subsidiaries have posted approximately $74 million (none at FPL) and $2 million (none at FPL), respectively, in cash, and at December 31, 2019, applicable NEE subsidiaries have posted approximately $88 million (none at FPL) 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 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, block-to-hourly price shaping, 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.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of NEE's commodity contracts categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2020 are as follows:

|  | Fair Value at |  | Valuation |  | Significant |  |  |  |  | Weighted-

Special Use Funds - The special use funds noted above and those carried at fair value (see Recurring Fair Value Measurements above) consist of NEE's nuclear decommissioning fund assets of approximately $7,099 million and $6,880 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, ($4,869 million and $4,697 million, respectively, for FPL) and FPL's storm fund assets of $76 million and $74 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The investments held in the special use funds consist of equity and available for sale debt securities which are primarily carried at estimated fair value. The amortized cost of debt securities is approximately $1,984 million and $2,030 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively ($1,492 million and $1,523 million, respectively, for FPL). Debt securities included in the nuclear decommissioning funds have a weighted-average maturity at September 30, 2020 of approximately nine years at both NEE and FPL. FPL's storm fund primarily consists of debt securities with a weighted-average maturity at September 30, 2020 of approximately one year. The cost of securities sold is determined using the specific identification method.
Effective January 1, 2020, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update that provides a modified version of the other than temporary impairment model for debt securities. The new available for sale debt security impairment model no longer allows consideration of the length of time during which the fair value has been less than its amortized cost basis when determining whether a credit loss exists. Credit losses are required to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on securities not intended to be sold or required to be sold. NEE and FPL adopted this model prospectively. See Note 11 - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.
For FPL's special use funds, changes in fair value of debt and equity securities, including any estimated credit losses of debt securities, result in a corresponding adjustment to the related regulatory asset or liability accounts, consistent with regulatory treatment. For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, changes in fair value of debt securities result in a corresponding adjustment to OCI, except for estimated credit losses and unrealized losses on debt securities intended or required to be sold prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis, which are recognized in other - net in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income. 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.

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.

———————————————

(a) | The three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 reflect a valuation allowance of approximately $48 million related to deferred state tax credits.

(b) | The nine months ended September 30, 2019 reflects a second quarter 2019 adjustment of approximately $83 million recorded by FPL to reduce income tax expense for the cumulative amortization of excess deferred income taxes from January 1, 2018 as a result of the FPSC's order in connection with its review of impacts associated with tax reform. One of the provisions of the order requires FPL to amortize approximately $870 million of its excess deferred income taxes over a period not to exceed ten years.

(c) | The gain on sale of the Spain solar projects was not taxable for federal and state income tax purposes (see Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses).

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, 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.
7. Acquisitions
Gulf Power - On January 1, 2019, NEE acquired the outstanding common shares of Gulf Power, a rate-regulated electric utility under the jurisdiction of the FPSC. Gulf Power serves approximately 470,000 customers in eight counties throughout northwest Florida, has approximately 9,500 miles of transmission and distribution lines and owns approximately 2,300 MW of net generating capacity. The purchase price included approximately $4.44 billion in cash consideration and the assumption of approximately $1.3 billion of Gulf Power debt. The cash purchase price was funded through $4.5 billion of borrowings by NEECH in December 2018 under certain short-term bi-lateral term loan agreements; the proceeds of which borrowings were restricted and included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018. Such borrowings were repaid in April 2019.
Under the acquisition method, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on January 1, 2019 based on their fair value. The approval by the FPSC of Gulf Power's rates, which is intended to allow Gulf Power to collect from retail customers total revenues equal to Gulf Power's costs of providing service, including a reasonable rate of return on invested capital, is considered a fundamental input in measuring the fair value of Gulf Power's assets and liabilities and, as such, NEE concluded that the carrying values of all assets and liabilities recoverable through rates are representative of their fair values. As a result, NEE acquired assets of approximately $5.2 billion, primarily relating to property, plant and equipment of $4.0 billion and regulatory assets of $494 million, and assumed liabilities of approximately $3.4 billion, including $1.3 billion of long-term debt, $635 million of regulatory liabilities and $562 million of deferred income taxes. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in approximately $2.7 billion of goodwill which has been recognized on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Goodwill associated with the Gulf Power acquisition is reflected within Corporate and Other and, for impairment testing, is included in the Gulf Power reporting unit. The goodwill arising from the transaction represents expected benefits from continued expansion of NEE's regulated businesses and the indefinite life of Gulf Power's service territory franchise.

Proposed Merger of FPL and Gulf Power - On October 15, 2020, the FERC approved an application filed by NEE, together with FPL and Gulf Power, to merge Gulf Power with and into FPL, with FPL as the surviving entity effective January 1, 2021. Gulf Power will continue as a separate operating division during 2021, serving its existing customers under separate retail rates.
Trans Bay Cable, LLC - On July 16, 2019, a wholly owned subsidiary of NEET acquired the membership interests of Trans Bay Cable, LLC (Trans Bay), which owns and operates a 53-mile, high-voltage direct current underwater transmission cable system in California extending from Pittsburg to San Francisco, with utility rates set by the FERC and revenues paid by the California Independent System Operator. The purchase price included approximately $670 million in cash consideration and the assumption of debt of approximately $422 million.
Under the acquisition method, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair value. The approval by the FERC of Trans Bay’s rates, which is intended to allow Trans Bay to collect total revenues equal to Trans Bay's costs for the development, financing, construction, operation and maintenance of Trans Bay, including a reasonable rate of return on invested capital, is considered a fundamental input in measuring the fair value of Trans Bay's assets and liabilities and, as such, NEE concluded that the carrying values of all assets and liabilities recoverable through rates are representative of their fair values. As a result, NEE acquired assets of approximately $703 million, primarily relating to property, plant and equipment, and assumed liabilities of approximately $643 million, primarily relating to long-term debt. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in approximately $610 million of goodwill which has been recognized on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets, of which approximately $572 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill associated with the Trans Bay acquisition is reflected within NEER and, for impairment testing, is included in the rate-regulated transmission reporting unit. The goodwill arising from the transaction represents expected benefits from continued expansion of NEE's regulated businesses.
GridLiance - On September 29, 2020, a wholly owned subsidiary of NEET entered into agreements to acquire GridLiance Holdco, LP and GridLiance GP, LLC (GridLiance) for approximately $660 million, including the assumption of approximately $160 million of debt, excluding post-closing adjustments. The agreements are subject to earn-out provisions for additional payments upon completion of certain development projects. GridLiance owns and operates three FERC-regulated transmission utilities with approximately 700 miles of high-voltage transmission lines across six states, five in the Midwest and Nevada. The acquisition is expected to close in 2021, and is subject to, among other things, approval of the FERC and utility commissions of certain states in which GridLiance operates. NEECH guarantees the payment obligations under the acquisition agreements.
8. Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)
NEER - At September 30, 2020, NEE consolidates 34 VIEs within the NEER segment. Subsidiaries within the NEER segment are considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since they control the most significant activities of these VIEs, including operations and maintenance, and they have the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs.
NextEra Energy Resources consolidates two VIEs, which own and operate natural gas/oil electric generation facilities with the capability of producing 1,450 MW. These entities sell their electric output to third parties under power sales contracts with expiration dates in 2021 and 2031. The power sales contracts provide the offtaker the ability to dispatch the facilities and require the offtaker to absorb the cost of fuel. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs were approximately $198 million and $24 million, respectively, at September 30, 2020 and $216 million and $25 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the assets of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment.
Three indirect subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources have an approximately 50% ownership interest in five entities which own and operate solar photovoltaic (PV) facilities with the capability of producing a total of approximately 409 MW. Each of the three subsidiaries is considered a VIE since the non-managing members have no substantive rights over the managing members, and is consolidated by NextEra Energy Resources. These five entities sell their electric output to third parties under power sales contracts with expiration dates ranging from 2035 through 2042. The five 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 NextEra Energy Resources for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs were approximately $784 million and $624 million, respectively, at September 30, 2020 and $776 million and $598 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the assets and liabilities of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt.
NEE consolidates a NEET VIE that is constructing an approximately 280-mile electricity transmission line. A NEET subsidiary is the primary beneficiary and controls the most significant activities during the construction period, including controlling the construction budget. NEET is entitled to receive 50% of the profits and losses of the entity. The assets and liabilities of the VIE totaled approximately $345 million and $69 million, respectively, at September 30, 2020, and $173 million and $29 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the assets and liabilities of this VIE consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and accounts payable.

The other 28 NextEra Energy Resources 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 7,482 MW and 813 MW, respectively. These entities sell their electric output either under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2025 through 2053 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. NextEra Energy Resources has financing obligations, including third-party debt which is secured by liens against the generation facilities and the other assets of these entities or by pledges of NextEra Energy Resources' 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 $11.8 billion and $0.7 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2020. There were 26 of these consolidated VIEs at December 31, 2019, and the assets and liabilities of those VIEs at such date totaled approximately $11.3 billion and $0.8 billion, respectively. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the assets and liabilities of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and accounts payable.
Other - At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, several NEE subsidiaries had investments totaling approximately $3,345 million ($2,822 million at FPL) and $3,247 million ($2,717 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, including NEE's noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo. These entities are limited partnerships or similar entity structures in which the limited partners or non-managing members do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities, 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. NEE’s investment in these entities totaled approximately $3,872 million and $4,254 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. At September 30, 2020, subsidiaries of NEE had commitments to invest additional amounts in five of the entities. Such commitments are included in the NEER amounts in the table in Note 12 - Contracts.

(c) | A cross-currency interest rate swap agreement was entered into with respect to this debt issuance. See Note 4.

In February 2020, NEE sold $2.5 billion of equity units (initially consisting of Corporate Units). Each equity unit has a stated amount of $50 and consists of a contract to purchase NEE common stock (stock purchase contract) and, initially, a 5% undivided beneficial ownership interest in a Series K Debenture due March 1, 2025, issued in the principal amount of $1,000 by NEECH. Each stock purchase contract requires the holder to purchase by no later than March 1, 2023 (the final settlement date) for a price of $50 in cash, a number of shares of NEE common stock (subject to antidilution adjustments) based on a price per share range of $282.04 to $352.55. If purchased on the final settlement date, as of September 30, 2020, the number of shares issued would (subject to antidilution adjustments) range from 0.1773 shares if the applicable market value of a share of common stock is less than or equal to $282.04 to 0.1418 shares if the applicable market value of a share is equal to or greater than $352.55, with applicable market value to be determined using the average closing prices of NEE common stock over a 20-day trading period ending February 24, 2023. Total annual distributions on the equity units are at the rate of 5.279%, consisting of interest on the debentures (1.84% per year) and payments under the stock purchase contracts (3.439% per year). The interest rate on the debentures is expected to be reset on or after August 25, 2022. A holder of an equity unit may satisfy its purchase obligation with proceeds raised from remarketing the NEECH debentures that are part of its equity unit. The undivided beneficial ownership interest in the NEECH debenture that is a component of each Corporate Unit is pledged to NEE to secure the holder's obligation to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contract. If a successful remarketing does not occur on or before the third business day prior to the final settlement date, and a holder has not notified NEE of its intention to settle the stock purchase contract with cash, the debentures that are components of the Corporate Units will be used to satisfy in full the holders' obligations to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contracts on the final settlement date. The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE.

11. Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Restricted Cash - At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, NEE had approximately $476 million ($114 million for FPL) and $508 million ($118 million for FPL), respectively, of restricted cash, of which approximately $368 million ($73 million for FPL) and $411 million ($54 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 Gulf Power and margin cash collateral requirements. In addition, where offsetting positions exist, restricted cash related to margin cash collateral of $158 million is netted against derivative assets and $14 million is netted against derivative liabilities at September 30, 2020 and $139 million is netted against derivative assets and $66 million is netted against derivative liabilities at December 31, 2019. See Note 4.
Disposal of Businesses - On February 11, 2020, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources completed the sale of its ownership interest in two solar generation facilities located in Spain with a total generating capacity of 99.8 MW, which resulted in net cash proceeds of approximately €111 million (approximately $121 million). In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $270 million (pretax and after tax) was recorded in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets related to the facilities that were classified as held for sale, which are included in current other assets on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets, were approximately $440 million at December 31, 2019 and primarily represent property, plant and equipment. Liabilities associated with assets held for sale, which are included in current other liabilities on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets, were approximately $647 million at December 31, 2019 and primarily represent long-term debt and interest rate derivatives.
In June 2019, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources completed the sale of ownership interests in three wind generation facilities and three solar generation facilities, including noncontrolling interests in two of the solar facilities, located in the Midwest and West regions of the U.S. with a total net generating capacity of 611 MW to a NEP subsidiary for cash proceeds of approximately $1.0 billion, plus working capital of $12 million. A NEER affiliate continues to operate the facilities included in the sale. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $341 million ($259 million after tax) was recorded in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which is included in gains on disposal of businesses/assets - net, and noncontrolling interests of approximately $118 million were recorded on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments - Effective January 1, 2020, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update that provides for a new methodology, the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, to account for credit losses for certain financial assets measured at amortized cost. On January 1, 2020, NEE recorded a reduction to retained earnings of approximately $11 million representing the cumulative effect of adopting the new standards update, which primarily related to the impact of applying the CECL model to NEER's receivables. The impact of adopting the new standards update was not material to FPL. See also Note 5 - Special Use Funds.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - FPL maintains an accumulated provision for uncollectible customer accounts receivable that is estimated using a percentage, derived from historical revenue and write-off trends, of the previous four months of revenue. NEER regularly reviews collectibility of its receivables and establishes a provision for losses estimated as a percentage of accounts receivable based on the historical bad debt write-off trends for its retail electricity provider operations. When necessary, NEER uses the specific identification method for all other receivables. Current events and reasonable and supportable forecasts are considered when reviewing all receivables for collectibility.
Reference Rate Reform - In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update which provides certain options to apply GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting as companies transition from the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates that are yet to be determined or finalized. NEE’s and FPL’s contracts that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates mainly relate to debt and derivative instruments. The standards update was effective upon issuance but can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. NEE and FPL are currently evaluating whether to apply the options provided by the standards update with regard to their contracts that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates as an interest rate benchmark.

Storm Cost Recovery - In mid-September 2020, Hurricane Sally made landfall near the Florida panhandle causing damage to much of Gulf Power’s service area and approximately 285,000 customers experienced electrical outages. Gulf Power experienced damage to its transmission and distribution systems, as well as certain power generation equipment. As of September 30, 2020, Gulf Power had not finalized its estimate of storm restoration costs associated with Hurricane Sally; however, its current estimate of recoverable storm restoration costs is approximately $200 million. Gulf Power is authorized to recover storm restoration costs on an interim basis from customers through a surcharge under the terms of its current base rate settlement agreement and subject to a subsequent prudence review by the FPSC. The accrued storm restoration costs eligible for recovery have been deferred and are recorded as a regulatory asset, primarily noncurrent, on NEE’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020.
Construction Activity - In September 2019, NEER determined it was no longer moving forward with the construction of a 220 MW wind facility due to unresolved permitting issues. NEE recorded charges of approximately $73 million ($54 million after tax), which are included in taxes other than income taxes and other in NEE’s condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily related to the write-off of capitalized construction costs.
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 and Gulf Power include, among other things, the cost for construction of additional facilities and equipment to meet customer demand, as well as capital improvements to and maintenance of existing facilities. At NEER, capital expenditures include, among other things, the cost, including capitalized interest, for construction and development of wind and solar projects, the procurement of nuclear fuel and the cost to maintain existing rate-regulated transmission facilities, as well as equity contributions to joint ventures for the development and construction of natural gas pipeline assets and a rate-regulated transmission facility. Also see Note 7 - GridLiance.
At September 30, 2020, estimated capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020 through 2024 for which applicable internal approvals (and also, if required, regulatory approvals such as FPSC approvals for FPL and Gulf Power) have been received were as follows:

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 $13.3 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 $1.1 billion ($550 million for FPL), plus any applicable taxes, per incident at any nuclear reactor in the U.S., payable at a rate not to exceed $164 million ($82 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 $16 million, $41 million and $20 million, plus any applicable taxes, per incident, respectively.
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 $500 million. 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 $173 million ($106 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, $4 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 either FPL's or Gulf Power's future storm restoration costs exceed their respective storm reserve, FPL and Gulf Power may recover their storm restoration costs, subject to prudence review by the FPSC, 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 or Gulf Power, would be borne by NEE and either FPL or Gulf Power, and could have a material adverse effect on NEE's and FPL's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
Coronavirus Pandemic - NEE and FPL are closely monitoring the global outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and are taking steps intended to mitigate the potential risks to NEE and FPL posed by COVID-19. NEE, including FPL, has implemented its pandemic plan, which includes putting in place various processes and procedures to limit the impact on its business, as well as the spread of the virus in its workforce. NEE and its subsidiaries, including FPL, have been able to access the capital markets. To date, there has been no material impact on NEE’s or FPL’s workforce, operations, financial performance, liquidity or on their supply chain as a result of COVID-19; however, the ultimate severity or duration of the outbreak or its effects on the global, national or local economy, the capital and credit markets, or NEE’s and FPL’s workforce, customers and suppliers are uncertain. NEE and FPL cannot predict whether COVID-19 will have a material impact on their businesses, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
13. Segment Information
The table below presents information for NEE's reportable segments, FPL, a rate-regulated utility business, and NEER, which is comprised of competitive energy and rate-regulated transmission businesses, as well as for Gulf Power, a rate-regulated utility business acquired in January 2019 (see Note 7 - Gulf Power).

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
OVERVIEW
NEE’s operating performance is driven primarily by the operations of its two principal businesses, FPL, which serves more than five million customer accounts in Florida and is one of the largest electric utilities in the U.S., and NEER, which together with affiliated entities is the world's largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and sun based on 2019 MWh produced on a net generation basis. The table below presents net income (loss) attributable to NEE and earnings (loss) p er share attributable to NEE, assuming dilution, by reportable segment, FPL and NEER, as well as Gulf Power, acquired in January 2019 (see Note 7 - Gulf Power), and Corporate and Other, which is primarily comprised of the operating results of other business activities, as well as other income and expense items, including interest expense, and eliminating entries. See Note 13 f or additional segment information, including a discussion of a change in segment reporting. On September 14, 2020, NEE's board of directors approved a four-for-one split of NEE common stock effective October 26, 2020 (see Note 9 - Earnings Per Share). The per share data included in Management’s Discussion for all periods presented have not been adjusted to reflect the 2020 stock split. T he following discussions should be read in conjunction with the Notes contained herein and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in the 2019 Form 10-K. The results of operations for an interim period generally will not give a true indication of results for the year. In the following discussions, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the prior year periods.

(a) | NEER’s results reflect an allocation of interest expense from NEECH based on a deemed capital structure of 70% debt and differential membership interests sold by NextEra Energy Resources' subsidiaries.

(b) | NEER's and Corporate and Other's results for 2019 were retrospectively adjusted to reflect a segment change. See Note 13.

Adjusted Earnings
NEE prepares its financial statements under GAAP. However, management uses earnings adjusted for certain items (adjusted earnings), a non-GAAP financial measure, internally for financial planning, analysis of performance, reporting of results to the Board of Directors and as an input in determining performance-based compensation under NEE’s employee incentive compensation plans. NEE also uses adjusted earnings when communicating its financial results and earnings outlook to analysts and investors. NEE’s management believes that adjusted earnings provide a more meaningful representation of NEE's fundamental earnings power. Although these amounts are properly reflected in the determination of net income under GAAP, managemen t believes that the amount and/or nature of such items make period to period comparisons of operations difficult and potentially confusing. Adjusted earnings do not represent a substitute for net income, as prepared under GAAP.

———————————————

(a) | For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, approximately $233 million of losses and $7 million of gains, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, $580 million and $187 million of losses, respectively, are included in NEER's net income; the balance is included in Corporate and Other. The change in non-qualifying hedge activity is primarily attributable to changes in forward power and natural gas prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, as well as the reversal of previously recognized unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses as the underlying transactions were realized.

(b) | See Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses for a discussion of the sale of two solar generation facilities in Spain (Spain projects).

(c) | For the three months ended September 30, 2019, approximately $4 million and $5 million of costs were included in Gulf Power's and NEER's net income, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, approximately $16 million and $6 million of costs were included in Gulf Power's and NEER's net income, respectively; the remaining balance is included in Corporate and Other.

NEE segregates into two categories unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses and timing impacts related to derivative transactions. The first category, referred to as non-qualifying hedges, represents certain energy derivative, interest rate derivative and foreign currency transactions entered into as economic hedges, which do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting or for which hedge accounting treatment was not elected or has been discontinued. Changes in the fair value of those transactions are marked to market and reported in the condensed consolidated statements of income, resulting in earnings volatility because the economic offset to certain of the positions are generally not marked to market. As a consequence, NEE's net income reflects only the movement in one part of economically-linked transactions. For example, a gain (loss) in the non-qualifying hedge category for certain energy derivatives is offset by decreases (increases) in the fair value of related physical asset positions in the portfolio or contracts, which are not marked to market under GAAP. For this reason, NEE's management views results expressed excluding the impact of the non-qualifying hedges as a meaningful measure of current period performance. The second category, referred to as trading activities, which is included in adjusted earnings, represents the net unrealized effect of actively traded positions entered into to take advantage of expected market price movements and all other commodity hedging activities. At FPL, substantially all changes in the fair value of energy derivative transactions 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. See Note 4.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary
Net income attributable to NEE for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was higher tha n the prior year period by $350 million, reflecting higher results at Corporate and Other, FPL and Gulf Power, partly offset by lower results at NEER. Net income attributable to NEE for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was higher than the prior year period by $130 million reflecting higher results at FPL, Corporate and Other, and Gulf Power, partly offset by lower results at NEER.
FPL's increase in net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by continued investments in plant in service and other property. During both 2020 and 2019, FPL earned an 11.60% regulatory ROE on its retail rate base, based on a trailing thirteen-month average retail rate base as of September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019.
Gulf Power's results increased by $15 million and $27 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
NEER's results decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily reflecting unfavorable non-qualifying hedge activity, partly offset by favorable changes in the fair value of equity securities in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds compared to 2019, the absence of asset sales/abandonment charges, NEP investment gains and higher earnings on new investments. NEER's results decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily reflecting unfavorable non-qualifying hedge activity, the absence of NEP investment gains recorded upon the sale of ownership interests to NEP in June 2019 and unfavorable changes in the fair value of equity securities in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds compared to 2019, partly offset by the gain recognized on the sale of the Spain projects and higher earnings on new investments and existing generation assets.
Corporate and Other's results increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to favorable non-qualifying hedge activity.

NEE's effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were approximately 10% and 7%, respectively. NEE's effective income tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were approximately 3% and 9%, respectively. See Note 6 for a discussion of NEE's and FPL's effective income tax rates.
On October 15, 2020, the FERC approved an application filed by NEE, together with FPL and Gulf Power, to merge Gulf Power with and into FPL, with FPL as the surviving entity. See Note 7 - Proposed Merger of FPL and Gulf Power.
NEE and FPL are closely monitoring the global outbreak of COVID-19 and are taking steps intended to mitigate the potential risks to NEE and FPL posed by COVID-19. See Note 12 - Coronavirus Pandemic.
FPL: Results of Operations
Investments in plant in service and other property grew FPL's average retail rate base for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 by approximately $3.8 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year, reflecting, among other things, solar generation additions and ongoing transmission and distribution additions.
The use of reserve amortization is permitted by a December 2016 FPSC final order approving a stipulation and settlement between FPL and several intervenors in FPL's base rate proceeding (2016 rate agreement). In order to earn a targeted regulatory ROE, subject to limitations associated with the 2016 rate agreement, reserve amortization is calculated using a trailing thirteen-month average of retail rate base and capital structure in conjunction with the trailing twelve months regulatory retail base net operating income, which primarily includes the retail base portion of base and other revenues, net of O&M, depreciation and amortization, interest and tax expenses. In general, the net impact of these income statement line items must be adjusted, in part, by reserve amortization to earn the targeted regulatory ROE. In certain periods, reserve amortization is reversed so as not to exceed the targeted regulatory ROE. The drivers of FPL's net income not reflected in the reserve amortization calculation typically include wholesale and transmission service revenues and expenses, cost recovery clause revenues and expenses, AFUDC - equity as well as revenue and costs not recoverable from retail customers by the FPSC. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, FPL recorded the reversal of reserve amortization of approximately $258 million and $101 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, FPL recorded the reversal of reserve amortization of approximately $308 million and $375 million, respectively.
In March 2020, the FPSC approved FPL’s SolarTogether program, a voluntary community solar program that gives FPL customers an opportunity to participate directly in the expansion of solar energy and receive credits on their monthly FPL bill. The program includes the addition of 20 dedicated 74.5 MW solar power plants owned and operated by FPL. As of September 30, 2020, 6 of the 20 plants have been placed into service. The remainder of the plants are expected to be placed into service by mid-2021.
Operating Revenues
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, FPL’s operating revenues decreased $36 million and $447 million, respectively. The decreases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflect lower fuel revenues of approximately $103 million and $535 million, respectively, primarily related to lower fuel and energy prices, including the accelerated flow back of lower expected fuel costs to retail customers in May 2020, and lower storm-related revenues. These decreases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 were partly offset by increases of $78 million and $202 million, respectively, in retail base revenues reflecting additional revenues of approximately $14 million and $53 million, respectively, related to retail base rate increases primarily associated with the addition of new solar generation and, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Okeechobee Clean Energy Center which achieved commercial operation at the end of the first quarter of 2019. Retail base revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 were also impacted by an increase of 1.3% and 0.2%, respectively, in the average usage per retail customer and an increase of 1.6% and 1.5% in the average number of customer accounts, respectively.
Fuel, Purchased Power and Interchange Expense
Fuel, purchased power and interchange expense decreased $104 million and $542 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, primarily reflecting lower fuel and energy prices.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $30 million and $230 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, FPL recorded the reversal of reserve amortization of approximately $258 million and $101 million, respectively, compared to the reversal of reserve amortization of approximately $308 million and $375 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. Reserve amortization, or reversal of such amortization, reflects adjustments to accrued asset removal costs provided under the 2016 rate agreement in order to achieve the targeted regulatory ROE. Reserve amortization is recorded as a reduction (or when reversed as an increase) to accrued asset removal costs which is reflected in noncurrent regulatory liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2020, approximately $994 million remains in accrued asset removal costs related to reserve amortization.
42

Income Taxes
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, income taxes increased approximately $128 million, primarily related to the 2019 adjustment to income tax expense recorded pursuant to the FPSC's order in connection with its review of impacts associated with tax reform, as well as higher income before income taxes in 2020.
Gulf Power: Results of Operations
Gulf Power's net income attributable to NEE increased $15 million and $27 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Operating revenues decreased $36 million and $69 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, primarily related to lower fuel revenues. Operating expenses - net decreased $43 million and $84 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, primarily related to decreases in fuel, purchased power and interchange expense, as well as the absence of 2019 acquisition-related costs, partly offset by higher depreciation and amortization.
In mid-September 2020, Gulf Power's service area was impacted by Hurricane Sally and Gulf Power recorded estimated recoverable storm restoration costs of approximately $200 million. See Note 11 - Storm Cost Recovery.
NEER: Results of Operations
NEER’s net income less net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased $5 million and $199 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The primary drivers, on an after-tax basis, of the changes are in the following table.

| Increase (Decrease) From Prior Year Period
| Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 |  | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020
| (millions)

(a) | Reflects after-tax project contributions, including the net effect of deferred income taxes and other benefits associated with PTCs and ITCs for wind and solar projects, as applicable, but excludes allocation of interest expense or corporate general and administrative expenses. Results from projects and pipelines are included in new investments during the first twelve months of operation or ownership. Project results, including repowered wind projects, are included in existing generation assets and pipeline results are included in gas infrastructure beginning with the thirteenth month of operation or ownership.

(b) | Excludes allocation of interest expense and corporate general and administrative expenses.

(c) | Includes differential membership interest costs. Excludes unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses related to interest rate derivative contracts, which are included in change in non-qualifying hedge activity.

(d) | See Overview - Adjusted Earnings for additional information.

(e) | Primarily relates to the sale of the Spain projects. See Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses.

New Investments
Results from new investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased primarily due to higher earnings, including federal income tax credits, related to new wind generating facilities that entered service during or after the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 as well as investments in pipelines.
Asset Sales/Abandonment
Asset sales/abandonment favorably impacted results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to the absence of prior year charges related to the decision to no longer move forward with the construction of a wind facility. See Note 11 - Construction Activity.
43

Existing Generation Assets
Results from existing generation assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased primarily due to higher results related to increased tax credits from repowered wind generation facilities and more favorable wind resource as compared to the prior year period, partly offset by lower earnings related to a refueling outage at the Seabrook nuclear facility.
Other Factors
Supplemental to the primary drivers of the changes in NEER's net income less net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests discussed above, the discussion below describes changes in certain line items set forth in NEE's condensed consolidated statements of income as they relate to NEER.
Operating Revenues
Operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $722 million primarily due to:

• | the impact of non-qualifying commodity hedges (approximately $410 million of losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $256 million of gains for the comparable period in 2019),

• | lower revenues from existing generation assets of $70 million primarily related to the sale of the Spain projects and unfavorable wind resource as compared to the prior year period, and

• | net decreases in revenues of $52 million from the customer supply and proprietary power and gas trading business and gas infrastructure business,

partly offset by,

• | revenues from new investments of $41 million, and

• | higher revenues of $26 million from NEET.

Operating revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $499 million primarily due to:

• | the impact of non-qualifying commodity hedges (approximately $226 million of losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $319 million of gains for the comparable period in 2019), and

• | lower revenues from existing generation assets of $166 million primarily related to the sale of the Spain projects and a refueling outage at the Seabrook nuclear facility,

partly offset by,

• | higher revenues of $124 million from NEET, and

• | revenues from new investments of $90 million.

Operating Expenses - net
Operating expenses - net for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $91 million primarily due to the absence of prior year charges of $73 million related to the decision to no longer move forward with the construction of a wind facility (see Note 11 - Construction Activity), and lower fuel costs of $31 million, partly offset by higher costs associated with new investments.
Operating expenses - net for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $127 million primarily due to increases of $97 million in other operations and maintenance expenses primarily associated with new investments and acquisitions. Additionally, NEER recorded lower gains on the disposal of assets of approximately $87 million primarily related to absence of the June 2019 sale of ownership interests to NEP offset by the gain on the sale of the Spain solar projects in the first quarter of 2020 (see Note 11 - Disposal of Businesses). These increases in operating expenses - net were partly offset by the absence of prior year charges of $73 million related to the decision to no longer move forward with the construction of a wind facility.
Interest Expense
NEER’s interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased approximately $113 million primarily reflecting $76 million of favorable impacts related to changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative instruments as well as lower interest rates in 2020.
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Equity Method Investees
NEER recognized $249 million of equity in earnings of equity method investees for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $90 million of equity in losses of equity method investees for the prior year period. The change for the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily reflects equity in earnings of NEP recorded in 2020 primarily related to favorable impacts due to changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative instruments.
Change in Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Equity Securities Held in NEER's Nuclear Decommissioning Funds - net
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, changes in the fair value of equity securities in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds, primarily equity securities in NEER's special use funds, related to more favorable market conditions as compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, changes in the fair value of equity securities in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds related to unfavorable market conditions in 2020 compared to favorable market conditions in 2019.
Tax Credits, Benefits and Expenses
PTC s from wind projects and ITCs from solar and certain wind projects are included in NEER’s earnings. PTCs are recognized as wind energy is generated and sold based on a per kWh rate prescribed in applicable federal and state statutes. A portion of the PTCs and ITCs have been allocated to investors in connection with sales of differential membership interests. Also see Note 6 for a discussion of PTCs and ITCs and other income tax impacts.
44

In May 2020, the IRS issued guidance that extends the safe harbor for continuous efforts and continuous construction requirements to include wind and solar facilities that began construction in 2016 and 2017 and are placed in service no more than five years after the year in which construction of the facilities began.
GridLiance Acquisition
In September 2020, a wholly owned subsidiary of NEET entered into agreements to acquire GridLiance, which owns and operates three FERC-regulated transmission utilities across six states, five in the Midwest and Nevada. See Note 7 - GridLiance.
Corporate and Other: Results of Operations
Corporate and Other is primarily comprised of the operating results o f other business activities, as well as corporate interest income and expenses. Corporate and Other allocates a portion of NEECH's corporate interest expense to NEER. Interest expense is allocated based on a deemed capital structure of 70% debt and differential membership interests sold by NextEra Energy Resources' subsidiaries.
Corporate and Other's results increased $266 million and $88 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to favorable after-tax impacts of approximately $311 million related to non-qualifying hedge activity as a result of changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative instruments, partly offset by higher corporate operating expenses. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily reflects favorable after-tax impacts of approximately $100 million related to non-qualifying hedge activity as a result of changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative instruments and the absence of acquisition and integration costs incurred in 2019, partly offset by higher corporate operating expenses.
45

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
NEE and its subsidiaries require funds to support and grow their businesses. These funds are used for, among other things, working capital, capital expenditures, investments in or acquisitions of assets and businesses, payment of maturing debt obligations and, from time to time, redemption or repurchase of outstanding debt or equity securities. It is anticipated that these requirements will be satisfied through a combination of cash flows from operations, short- and long-term borrowings, the issuance of short- and long-term debt and, from time to time, equity securities, proceeds from differential membership investors and sales of assets to NEP or third parties, consistent with NEE’s and FPL’s objective of maintaining, on a long-term basis, a capital structure that will support a strong investment grade credit rating. NEE, FPL and NEECH rely on access to credit and capital markets as significant sources of liquidity for capital requirements and other operations that are not satisfied by operating cash flows. The inability of NEE, FPL and NEECH to maintain their current credit ratings could affect their ability to raise short- and long-term capital, their cost of capital and the execution of their respective financing strategies, and could require the posting of additional collateral under certain agreements.
Cash Flows
NEE's sources and uses of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

(a) | Provide for the funding of loans up to the amount of the credit facility and the issuance of letters of credit up to $2,525 million ($575 million for FPL, $75 million for Gulf Power and $1,875 million for NEECH). The entire amount of the credit facilities is available for general corporate purposes and to provide additional liquidity in the event of a loss to the companies’ or their subsidiaries’ operating facilities (including, in the case of FPL, a transmission and distribution property loss). FPL’s syndicated revolving credit facilities are also available to support the purchase of $948 million of pollution control, solid waste disposal and industrial development revenue bonds (tax exempt bonds) in the event they are tendered by individual bondholders and not remarketed prior to maturity, as well as the repayment of approximately $556 million of floating rate notes in the event an individual noteholder requires repayment at specified dates prior to maturity. Gulf Power's syndicated revolving credit facilities are also available to support the purchase of approximately $361 million of its tax exempt bonds in the event they are tendered by individual bondholders and not remarketed prior to maturity. Approximately $2,314 million of FPL's and $4,062 million of NEECH's syndicated revolving credit facilities expire in 2025.

(b) | Only available for the issuance of letters of credit.

Capital Support
Guarantees, Letters of Credit, Surety Bonds and Indemnifications (Guarantee Arrangements)
Certain subsidiaries of NEE issue guarantees and obtain letters of credit and surety bonds, as well as provide indemnities, to facilitate commercial transactions with third parties and financings. Substantially all of the guarantee arrangements are on behalf of NEE’s consolidated subsidiaries, as discussed in more detail below. NEE is not required to recognize liabilities associated with guarantee arrangements issued on behalf of its consolidated subsidiaries unless it becomes probable that they will be required to perform. At September 30, 2020, NEE believes that there is no material exposure related to these guarantee arrangements.
NEE subsidiaries issue guarantees related to equity contribution agreements associated with the development, construction and financing of certain power generation facilities, engineering, procurement and construction agreements and equity contributions associated with natural gas pipeline projects under development and construction and a related natural gas transportation agreement. Commitments associated with these activities are included in the contracts table in Note 12.
In addition, at September 30, 2020, NEE subsidiaries had approximately $4.2 billion in guarantees related to obligations under purchased power agreements, nuclear-related activities, payment obligations related to PTCs, as well as other types of contractual obligations (see Note - 7 - GridLiance).
In some instances, subsidiaries of NEE elect to issue guarantees instead of posting other forms of collateral required under certain financing arrangements, as well as for other project-level cash management activities. At September 30, 2020, these guarantees totaled approximately $395 million and support, among other things, cash management activities, including those related to debt service and O&M service agreements, as well as other specific project financing requirements.
Subsidiaries of NEE also issue guarantees to support customer supply and proprietary power and gas trading activities, including the buying and selling of wholesale and retail energy commodities. At September 30, 2020, the estimated mark-to-market exposure (the total amount that these subsidiaries of NEE could be required to fund based on energy commodity market prices at September 30, 2020) plus contract settlement net payables, net of collateral posted for obligations under these guarantees, totaled approximately $574 million.
48

At September 30, 2020, subsidiaries of NEE also had approximately $1.5 billion of standby letters of credit and approximately $650 million of surety bonds to support certain of the commercial activities discussed above. FPL's and NEECH's credit facilities are available to support the amount of the standby letters of credit.
In addition, as part of contract negotiations in the normal course of business, certain subsidiaries of NEE have agreed and in the future may agree to make payments to compensate or indemnify other parties, including those associated with asset divestitures, for possible unfavorable financial consequences resulting from specified events. The specified events may include, but are not limited to, an adverse judgment in a lawsuit or the imposition of additional taxes due to a change in tax law or interpretations of the tax law, or the triggering of cash grant recapture provisions under the Recovery Act. NEE is unable to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under some of these contracts because events that would obligate them to make payments have not yet occurred or, if any such event has occurred, they have not been notified of its occurrence.
NEECH, a 100% owned subsidiary of NEE, provides funding for, and holds ownership interests in, NEE's operating subsidiaries other than FPL and Gulf Power. NEE has fully and unconditionally guaranteed certain payment obligations of NEECH, including most of its debt and all of its debentures registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 and commercial paper issuances, as well as most of its payment guarantees and indemnifications, and NEECH has guaranteed certain debt and other obligations of subsidiaries within the NEER segment. Certain guarantee arrangements described above contain requirements for NEECH and FPL to maintain a specified credit rating.
NEE fully and unconditionally guarantees NEECH debentures pursuant to a guarantee agreement, dated as of June 1, 1999 (1999 guarantee) and NEECH junior subordinated debentures pursuant to an indenture, dated as of September 1, 2006 (2006 guarantee). The 1999 guarantee is an unsecured obligation of NEE and ranks equally and ratably with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of NEE. The 2006 guarantee is unsecured and subordinate and junior in right of payment to NEE senior indebtedness (as defined therein). No payment on those junior subordinated debentures may be made under the 2006 guarantee until all NEE senior indebtedness has been paid in full in certain circumstances. NEE’s and NEECH’s ability to meet their financial obligations are primarily dependent on their subsidiaries’ net income, cash flows and their ability to pay upstream dividends or to repay funds to NEE and NEECH. The dividend-paying ability of some of the subsidiaries is limited by contractual restrictions which are contained in outstanding financing agreements.
Summarized financial information of NEE and NEECH is as follows:

New Accounting Rules and Interpretations
Reference Rate Reform - In March 2020, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which provides certain options to apply GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting as companies transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. See Note 11 - Reference Rate Reform.
ENERGY MARKETING AND TRADING AND MARKET RISK SENSITIVITY
NEE and FPL are exposed to risks associated with adverse changes in commodity prices, interest rates and equity prices. Financial instruments and positions affecting the financial statements of NEE and FPL described below are held primarily for purposes other than trading. Market risk is measured as the potential loss in fair value resulting from hypothetical reasonably possible changes in commodity prices, interest rates or equity prices over the next year. Management has established risk management policies to monitor and manage such market risks, as well as credit risks.
Commodity Price Risk
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. In addition, NEE, through NEER, uses derivatives to optimize the value of its power generation and gas infrastructure assets and engages in power and gas marketing and trading activities to take advantage of expected future favorable price movements. See Note 4.
The changes in the fair value of NEE's consolidated subsidiaries' energy contract derivative instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 were as follows:

With respect to commodities, NEE's Exposure Management Committee (EMC), which is compri sed of certain members of senior management, and NEE's chief executive officer are responsible for the overall approval of market risk management policies and the delegation of approval and authorization levels. The EMC and NEE's chief executive officer receive periodic updates on market positions and related exposures, credit exposures and overall risk management activities.
NEE uses a value-at-risk (VaR) model to measure commodity price market risk in its trading and mark-to-market portfolios. The VaR is the estimated loss of market value based on a one-day holding period at a 95% confidence level using historical simulation methodology. The VaR figures are as follows:

Interest Rate Risk
NEE's and FPL's financial results are exposed to risk resulting from changes in interest rates as a result of their respective outstanding and expected future issuances of debt, investments in special use funds and other investments. NEE and FPL manage their respective interest rate exposure by monitoring current interest rates, entering into interest rate contracts and using a combination of fixed rate and variable rate debt. Interest rate contracts are used to mitigate and adjust interest rate exposure when deemed appropriate based upon market conditions or when required by financing agreements.
The following are estimates of the fair value of NEE's and FPL's financial instruments that are exposed to interest rate risk:

| September 30, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
| Carrying Amount |  | Estimated Fair Value(a) |  | Carrying Amount |  | Estimated Fair Value(a)

Long-term debt, including current portion | $ | 15,809 |  |  | $ | 19,415 |  |  | $ | 14,161 |  |  | $ | 16,448 |

———————————————

(a) | See Note 5.

The special use funds of NEE and FPL consist of restricted funds set aside to cover the cost of storm damage for FPL and for the decommissioning of NEE's and FPL's nuclear power plants. A portion of these funds is invested in fixed income debt securities primarily carried at estimated fair value. At FPL, changes in fair value, including any credit losses, result in a corresponding adjustment to the related regulatory asset or liability accounts based on current regulatory treatment. The changes in fair value for NEE's non-rate regulated operations result in a corresponding adjustment to OCI, except for credit losses and unrealized losses on available for sale securities intended or required to be sold prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis, which are reported in current period earnings. Because the funds set aside by FPL for storm damage could be needed at any time, the related investments are generally more liquid and, therefore, are less sensitive to changes in interest rates. The nuclear decommissioning funds, in contrast, are generally invested in longer-term securities.
At September 30, 2020, NEE had interest rate contracts with a net notional amount of approximately $10.5 billion related to expected future and outstanding debt issuances and borrowings. The net notional amount consists of approximately $10.9 billion to manage exposure to the variability of cash flows associated with expected future and outstanding debt issuances at NEECH and NEER. This is offset by approximately $400 million that effectively convert fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt instruments at NEECH. See Note 4.
Based upon a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates, which is a reasonable near-term market change, the fair value of NEE's net liabilities would increase by approximately $1,414 million ($562 million for FPL) at September 30, 2020.
Equity Price Risk
NEE and FPL are exposed to risk resulting from changes in prices for equity securities. For example, NEE’s nuclear decommissioning reserve funds include marketable equity securities carried at their market value of approximately $4,181 million and $3,963 million ($2,663 million and $2,491 million for FPL) at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. NEE's and FPL’s investment strategy for equity securities in their nuclear decommissioning reserve funds emphasizes marketable securities which are broadly diversified. At September 30, 2020, a hypothetical 10% decrease in the prices quoted on stock exchanges, which is a reasonable near-term market change, would result in an approximately $381 million ($244 million for FPL) reduction in fair value. For FPL, a corresponding adjustment would be made to the related regulatory asset or liability accounts based on current regulatory treatment, and for NEE’s non-rate regulated operations, a corresponding amount would be 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.
Credit Risk
NEE and its subsidiaries, including FPL, are also exposed to credit risk through their energy marketing and trading operations. Credit risk is the risk that a financial loss will be incurred if a counterparty to a transaction does not fulfill its financial obligation. NEE manages counterparty credit risk for its subsidiaries with energy marketing and trading operations through established policies, including counterparty credit limits, and in some cases credit enhancements, such as cash prepayments, letters of credit, cash and other collateral and guarantees.
53

Credit risk is also managed through the use of master netting agreements. NEE’s credit department monitors current and forward credit exposure to counterparties and their affiliates, both on an individual and an aggregate basis. For all derivative and contractual transactions, NEE’s energy marketing and trading operations, which include FPL’s energy marketing and trading division, are exposed to losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to these transactions. Some relevant considerations when assessing NEE’s energy marketing and trading operations’ credit risk exposure include the following:

• | Operations are primarily concentrated in the energy industry.

• | Trade receivables and other financial instruments are predominately with energy, utility and financial services related companies, as well as municipalities, cooperatives and other trading companies in the U.S.

• | Overall credit risk is managed through established credit policies and is overseen by the EMC.

• | Prospective and existing customers are reviewed for creditworthiness based upon established standards, with customers not meeting minimum standards providing various credit enhancements or secured payment terms, such as letters of credit or the posting of margin cash collateral.

• | Master netting agreements are used to offset cash and noncash gains and losses arising from derivative instruments with the same counterparty. NEE’s policy is to have master netting agreements in place with significant counterparties.

Based on NEE’s policies and risk exposures related to credit, NEE and FPL do not anticipate a material adverse effect on their financial statements as a result of counterparty nonperformance. At September 30, 2020, approxi mately 88% of NEE’s and 100% o f FPL’s energy marketing and trading counterparty credit risk exposure is associated with companies that have investment grade credit ratings.

See Management's Discussion - Energy Marketing and Trading and Market Risk Sensitivity.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2020, each of NEE and FPL had performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including NEE's and FPL's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of each company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of each of NEE and FPL concluded that the company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2020.

(b) | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

NEE and FPL are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their operations and of their internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout NEE and FPL. However, there has been no change in NEE's or FPL's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during NEE's and FPL's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, NEE's or FPL's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the 2019 Form 10-K and the March 2020 Form 10-Q. The factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2019 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the March 2020 Form 10-Q, as well as other information set forth in this report, which could materially adversely affect NEE's and FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects should be carefully considered. The risks described in the 2019 Form 10-K and March 2020 Form 10-Q are not the only risks facing NEE and FPL. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to NEE or FPL, or that are currently deemed to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect NEE's or FPL's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
