Leases | Leases NEE has operating and finance leases primarily related to land use agreements that convey exclusive use of the land during the arrangement for certain of its renewable energy projects and substations, buildings, equipment. Operating and finance leases primarily have fixed payments with expected expiration dates ranging from 2024 to 2083, with the exception of operating leases related to three land use agreements with an expiration date of 2106, some of which include options to extend the leases up to 30 years and some have options to terminate at NEE's discretion. At December 31, 2023, NEE’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaled approximately $396 million and $412 million, respectively; the respective amounts at December 31, 2022 were $386 million and $400 million. At December 31, 2023, NEE’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for finance leases totaled approximately $440 million and $444 million, respectively; the respective amounts at December 31, 2022 were $378 million and $375 million. NEE’s lease liabilities at December 31, 2023 and 2022 were calculated using a weighted-average incremental borrowing rate at the lease inception of 3.96% and 3.66%, respectively, for operating leases and 4.32% and 3.98%, respectively, for finance leases, and a weighted-average remaining lease term of 44 years and 45 years, respectively, for operating leases and 32 years and 33 years, respectively, for finance leases. At December 31, 2023, expected lease payments over the remaining terms of the leases were approximately $1.7 billion with no one year being material.
