FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. 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, anticipate, 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 NEP's operations and financial results, and could cause NEP's actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of NEP in this Form 10-Q, in presentations, on its website, in response to questions or otherwise.
Performance Risks
•NEP's ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders is affected by the performance of its renewable energy projects which could be impacted by wind and solar conditions and in certain circumstances by market prices.
•Operation and maintenance of renewable energy projects and pipelines involve significant risks that could result in unplanned power outages, reduced output or capacity, personal injury or loss of life.
•NEP'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.
•NEP depends on certain of the renewable energy projects and pipelines in its portfolio for a substantial portion of its anticipated cash flows.
•NEP may pursue the repowering of renewable energy projects or the expansion of natural gas pipelines that would require up-front capital expenditures and could expose NEP to project development risks.
•Geopolitical factors, terrorist acts, cyberattacks or other similar events could impact NEP's projects, pipelines or surrounding areas and adversely affect its business.
•The ability of NEP 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. NEP's insurance coverage does not provide protection against all significant losses.
•NEP relies on interconnection, transmission and other pipeline facilities of third parties to deliver energy from its renewable energy projects and to transport natural gas to and from its pipelines. If these facilities become unavailable, NEP's projects and pipelines may not be able to operate or deliver energy or may become partially or fully unavailable to transport natural gas.
•NEP's business is subject to liabilities and operating restrictions arising from environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, compliance with which may require significant capital expenditures, increase NEP's cost of operations and affect or limit its business plans.
•NEP's renewable energy projects or pipelines may be adversely affected by legislative changes or a failure to comply with applicable energy and pipeline regulations.
•Pemex may claim certain immunities under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act and Mexican law, and the Texas pipeline entities' ability to sue or recover from Pemex for breach of contract may be limited and may be exacerbated if there is a deterioration in the economic relationship between the U.S. and Mexico.
•NEP does not own all of the land on which the projects in its portfolio are located and its use and enjoyment of the property may be adversely affected to the extent that there are any lienholders or land rights holders that have rights that are superior to NEP's rights or the BLM suspends its federal rights-of-way grants.
•NEP is subject to risks associated with litigation or administrative proceedings that could materially impact its operations, including, but not limited to, proceedings related to projects it acquires in the future.
•NEP's operations require NEP to comply with anti-corruption laws and regulations of the U.S. government and Mexico.
•NEP is subject to risks associated with its ownership interests in projects that are under construction, which could result in its inability to complete construction projects on time or at all, and make projects too expensive to complete or cause the return on an investment to be less than expected.
Contract Risks
•NEP relies on a limited number of customers and is exposed to the risk that they may be unwilling or unable to fulfill their contractual obligations to NEP or that they otherwise terminate their agreements with NEP.
•NEP may not be able to extend, renew or replace expiring or terminated PPAs, natural gas transportation agreements or other customer contracts at favorable rates or on a long-term basis.
•If the energy production by or availability of NEP's renewable energy projects is less than expected, they may not be able to satisfy minimum production or availability obligations under their PPAs.
Risks Related to NEP's Acquisition Strategy and Future Growth
•NEP's growth strategy depends on locating and acquiring interests in additional projects consistent with its business strategy at favorable prices.
•Reductions in demand for natural gas in the United States or Mexico and low market prices of natural gas could materially adversely affect NEP's pipeline operations and cash flows.
4

•Government laws, regulations and policies providing incentives and subsidies for clean energy could be changed, reduced or eliminated at any time and such changes may negatively impact NEP's growth strategy.
•NEP's growth strategy depends on the acquisition of projects developed by NEE and third parties, which face risks related to project siting, financing, construction, permitting, the environment, governmental approvals and the negotiation of project development agreements.
•Acquisitions of existing clean energy projects involve numerous risks.
•NEP may continue to acquire other sources of clean energy and may expand to include other types of assets. Any further acquisition of non-renewable energy projects may present unforeseen challenges and result in a competitive disadvantage relative to NEP's more-established competitors.
•NEP faces substantial competition primarily from regulated utility holding companies, developers, IPPs, pension funds and private equity funds for opportunities in North America.
•The natural gas pipeline industry is highly competitive, and increased competitive pressure could adversely affect NEP's business.
Risks Related to NEP's Financial Activities
•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 pursue other growth opportunities.
•Restrictions in NEP and its subsidiaries' financing agreements could adversely affect NEP's business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders.
•NEP's cash distributions to its unitholders may be reduced as a result of restrictions on NEP's subsidiaries’ cash distributions to NEP under the terms of their indebtedness or other financing agreements.
•NEP's subsidiaries’ substantial amount of indebtedness may adversely affect NEP's ability to operate its business, and its failure to comply with the terms of its subsidiaries' indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on NEP's financial condition.
•If NEP is not able to close the sale of the Texas pipelines as planned, NEP would have to rely on other sources of capital to finance its plan to purchase noncontrolling membership interests in certain of its subsidiaries and to repay certain borrowings.
•NEP is exposed to risks inherent in its use of interest rate swaps.
•Widespread public health crises and epidemics or pandemics may have material adverse impacts on NEP’s business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders.
Risks Related to NEP's Relationship with NEE
•NEE has influence over NEP.
•Under the CSCS agreement, NEP receives credit support from NEE and its affiliates. NEP's subsidiaries may default under contracts or become subject to cash sweeps if credit support is terminated, if NEE or its affiliates fail to honor their obligations under credit support arrangements, or if NEE or another credit support provider ceases to satisfy creditworthiness requirements, and NEP will be required in certain circumstances to reimburse NEE for draws that are made on credit support.
•NEER and certain of its affiliates are permitted to borrow funds received by NEP OpCo or its subsidiaries and is obligated to return these funds only as needed to cover project costs and distributions or as demanded by NEP OpCo. NEP's financial condition and ability to make distributions to its unitholders, as well as its ability to grow distributions in the future, is highly dependent on NEER’s performance of its obligations to return all or a portion of these funds.
•NEER's right of first refusal may adversely affect NEP's ability to consummate future sales or to obtain favorable sale terms.
•NEP GP and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest with NEP and have limited duties to NEP and its unitholders.
•NEP GP and its affiliates and the directors and officers of NEP are not restricted in their ability to compete with NEP, whose business is subject to certain restrictions.
•NEP may only terminate the MSA under certain limited circumstances.
•If the agreements with NEE Management or NEER are terminated, NEP may be unable to contract with a substitute service provider on similar terms.
•NEP's arrangements with NEE limit NEE's potential liability, and NEP has agreed to indemnify NEE against claims that it may face in connection with such arrangements, which may lead NEE to assume greater risks when making decisions relating to NEP than it otherwise would if acting solely for its own account.
Risks Related to Ownership of NEP's Units
•NEP's ability to make distributions to its unitholders depends on the ability of NEP OpCo to make cash distributions to its limited partners.
•If NEP incurs material tax liabilities, NEP's distributions to its unitholders may be reduced, without any corresponding reduction in the amount of the IDR fee.
•Holders of NEP's units may be subject to voting restrictions.
•NEP's partnership agreement replaces the fiduciary duties that NEP GP and NEP's directors and officers might have to holders of its common units with contractual standards governing their duties and the New York Stock Exchange does not require a publicly traded limited partnership like NEP to comply with certain of its corporate governance requirements.
•NEP's partnership agreement restricts the remedies available to holders of NEP's common units for actions taken by NEP's directors or NEP GP that might otherwise constitute breaches of fiduciary duties.
5

•Certain of NEP's actions require the consent of NEP GP.
•Holders of NEP's common units currently cannot remove NEP GP without NEE's consent and provisions in NEP's partnership agreement may discourage or delay an acquisition of NEP that NEP unitholders may consider favorable.
•NEE's interest in NEP GP and the control of NEP GP may be transferred to a third party without unitholder consent.
•Reimbursements and fees owed to NEP GP and its affiliates for services provided to NEP or on NEP's behalf will reduce cash distributions from NEP OpCo and from NEP to NEP's unitholders, and there are no limits on the amount that NEP OpCo may be required to pay.
•Increases in interest rates could adversely impact the price of NEP's common units, NEP's ability to issue equity or incur debt for acquisitions or other purposes and NEP's ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders.
•The liability of holders of NEP's units, which represent limited partnership interests in NEP, may not be limited if a court finds that unitholder action constitutes control of NEP's business.
•Unitholders may have liability to repay distributions that were wrongfully distributed to them.
•The issuance of common units, or other limited partnership interests, or securities convertible into, or settleable with, common units, and any subsequent conversion or settlement, will dilute common unitholders’ ownership in NEP, may decrease the amount of cash available for distribution for each common unit, will impact the relative voting strength of outstanding NEP common units and issuance of such securities, or the possibility of issuance of such securities, as well as the resale, or possible resale following conversion or settlement, may result in a decline in the market price for NEP's common units.
Taxation Risks
•NEP's future tax liability may be greater than expected if NEP does not generate NOLs sufficient to offset taxable income or if tax authorities challenge certain of NEP's tax positions.
•NEP's ability to use NOLs to offset future income may be limited.
•NEP will not have complete control over NEP's tax decisions.
•Distributions to unitholders may be taxable as dividends.
These factors should be read together with the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2022 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Form 10-Q and investors should refer to those sections of the 2022 Form 10-K and this Form 10-Q. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and NEP undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances, including, but not limited to, unanticipated events, after the date on which such statement is made, unless otherwise required by law. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in any forward-looking statement.
Website Access to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Filings. NEP makes its SEC filings, including the annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and any amendments to those reports, available free of charge on NEP's internet website, www.nexteraenergypartners.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after those documents are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC. The information and materials available on NEP's website are not incorporated by reference into this Form 10-Q.

•Langdon I, an approximately 118 MW wind generation facility located in North Dakota; and
•Langdon II, an approximately 41 MW wind generation facility located in North Dakota.
Under the acquisition method, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including noncontrolling interests, based on their estimated fair value. All fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 (unobservable) inputs, which require judgment. Estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows, discount rates reflecting risk inherent in future cash flows and future market prices. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill at the acquisition date. The goodwill arising from the acquisition results largely from the assets being well-situated in strong markets with long-term renewables demand, providing long-term optionality for the assets. All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes over a 15 year period.

2. Revenue
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. NEP's operating revenues are generated primarily from various non-affiliated parties under PPAs and natural gas transportation agreements. NEP's operating revenues from contracts with customers are partly offset by the net amortization of intangible asset – PPAs and intangible liabilities – PPAs. Revenue is recognized as energy and any related renewable energy attributes are delivered, based on rates stipulated in the respective PPAs, or natural gas transportation services are performed. NEP believes that the obligation to deliver energy and provide the natural gas transportation services is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives

and consumes benefits provided by NEP. In addition, NEP believes that the obligation to deliver renewable energy attributes is satisfied at multiple points in time, with the control of the renewable energy attribute being transferred at the same time the related energy is delivered. Included in NEP’s operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 is $291 million and $58 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is $825 million and $171 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 is $232 million and $64 million, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is $747 million and $181 million, of revenue from contracts with customers for renewable energy sales and natural gas transportation services, respectively. NEP's accounts receivable are primarily associated with revenues earned from contracts with customers. Receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration and reflect the differences in timing of revenue recognition and cash collections. For substantially all of NEP'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.
NEP recognizes revenues as energy and any related renewable energy attributes are delivered or natural gas transportation services are performed, consistent with the amounts billed to customers based on rates stipulated in the respective agreements. NEP considers the amount billed to represent the value of energy delivered or services provided to the customer. NEP’s customers typically receive bills monthly with payment due within 30 days.
The contracts with customers related to pipeline service revenues contain a fixed price related to firm natural gas transportation capacity with maturity dates ranging from 2023 to 2035. At September 30, 2023, approximately $1.5 billion of revenues are expected to be recorded over the remaining terms of the related contracts as the capacity is provided. Revenues yet to be earned under contracts with customers to deliver energy and any related energy attributes, which have maturity dates ranging from 2025 to 2052, will vary based on the volume of energy delivered. At September 30, 2023, approximately $172 million of revenues related to the fixed price components of one PPA are expected to be recorded through 2039 as the energy is delivered.
3. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity
NEP uses derivative instruments (primarily interest rate swaps) to manage the interest rate cash flow risk associated with outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings and to manage the physical and financial risks inherent in the sale of electricity. NEP records all derivative instruments that are required to be marked to market as either assets or liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets and measures them at fair value each reporting period. NEP does not utilize hedge accounting for its derivative instruments. All changes in the interest rate contract derivatives' fair value are recognized in interest expense and the equity method investees' related activity is recognized in equity in earnings of equity method investees in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the net notional amounts of the interest rate contracts were approximately $2.2 billion and $7.8 billion, respectively. All changes in commodity contract derivatives' fair value are recognized in operating revenues in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NEP had derivative commodity contracts for power with net notional volumes of approximately 6.0 million and 5.7 million MW hours, respectively. Cash flows from the interest rate and commodity contracts are reported in cash flows from operating activities in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In October 2023, NEP entered into forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $1.85 billion to manage interest rate risk associated with forecasted debt issuances.
Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Instruments – 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. NEP uses 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. Certain financial instruments may be valued using multiple inputs including discount rates, counterparty credit ratings and credit enhancements. NEP’s assessment of the significance of any particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement of those assets and liabilities 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. Transfers between fair value hierarchy levels occur at the beginning of the period in which the transfer occurred.
NEP estimates the fair value of its derivative instruments 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. The primary inputs used in the fair value measurements include the contractual terms of the derivative agreements, current interest rates and credit profiles. The significant inputs for the resulting fair value measurement of interest rate contracts are market-observable inputs and the measurements are reported as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features – Certain of NEP's derivative instruments contain credit-related cross-default and material adverse change triggers, none of which contain requirements to maintain certain credit ratings or financial ratios. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate fair value of NEP's derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was approximately $15 million and $37 million, respectively.
4. Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements
Non-derivative fair value measurements consist of NEP's cash equivalents. The fair value of these financial assets is determined using the valuation techniques and inputs as described in Note 3 – Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Instruments. The fair value of money market funds that are included in cash and cash equivalents, current other assets and noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets is estimated using a market approach based on current observable market prices.

5. Income Taxes
Income taxes are calculated for NEP as a single taxpaying corporation for U.S. federal and state income taxes (based on NEP's election to be taxed as a corporation). NEP recognizes in income its applicable ownership share of U.S. income taxes due to the disregarded/partnership tax status of substantially all of the U.S. projects under NEP OpCo. Net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests includes minimal U.S. taxes.
The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately 19% and 19%, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately 16% and 14%, respectively. The effective tax rates are below the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to tax benefit attributable to noncontrolling interests of approximately $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and tax benefit attributable to PTCs of $22 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The effective tax rates are below the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to tax benefit attributable to noncontrolling interests of approximately of $23 million and $126 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
6. Variable Interest Entities
NEP has identified NEP OpCo, a limited partnership with a general partner and limited partners, as a VIE. NEP has consolidated the results of NEP OpCo and its subsidiaries because of its controlling interest in the general partner of NEP OpCo. At September 30, 2023, NEP owned an approximately 48.6% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo and NEE Equity owned a noncontrolling 51.4% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo. The assets and liabilities of NEP OpCo as well as the operations of NEP OpCo represent substantially all of NEP's assets and liabilities and its operations.
In addition, at September 30, 2023, NEP OpCo consolidated 20 VIEs related to certain subsidiaries which have sold differential membership interests in entities which own and operate 40 wind generation facilities as well as eight solar projects, including related battery storage facilities, and one battery storage facility. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of the differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, and liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses and asset retirement obligation, of the VIEs, totaled approximately $11,577 million and $739 million, respectively, at September 30, 2023. There were 21 VIEs at December 31, 2022, and the assets and liabilities of those VIEs at such date totaled approximately $12,127 million and $1,336 million, respectively.
At September 30, 2023, NEP OpCo also consolidated six VIEs related to the sales of noncontrolling Class B interests in certain NEP subsidiaries (see Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests) which have ownership interests in and operate wind and solar facilities with a combined net generating capacity of approximately 5,622 MW and battery storage capacity of 120 MW, as well as ownership interests in seven natural gas pipeline assets (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests regarding Class B membership interests in STX Midstream). These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of the noncontrolling Class B interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of the entities. The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, intangible assets – PPAs and investments in equity method investees, and the liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses, long-term debt, intangible liabilities – PPAs, noncurrent other liabilities and asset retirement obligation, of the VIEs totaled approximately $15,882 million and $2,902 million, respectively, at September 30, 2023 and $16,448 million and $3,456 million, respectively, at December 31, 2022. Certain of these VIEs include six other VIEs related to NEP's ownership interests in Rosmar Holdings, LLC, Silver State, Meade, Pine Brooke Holdings, Star Moon Holdings, LLC (Star Moon Holdings) and Emerald Breeze (see Note 1). In addition, certain of these VIEs contain entities which have sold differential membership interests and approximately $7,740 million and $8,088 million of assets and $611 million and $1,198 million of liabilities are also included in the disclosure of the VIEs related to differential membership interests at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
At September 30, 2023, NEP OpCo consolidated Sunlight Renewables Holdings which is a VIE (see Note 1). The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, and the liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses, asset retirement obligation and noncurrent other liabilities, of the VIE totaled approximately $435 million and $11 million, respectively, at September 30, 2023 and $443 million and $10 million, respectively, at December 31, 2022. This VIE contains entities which have sold differential membership interests and approximately $348 million and $344 million of assets and $11 million and $10 million of liabilities are also included in the disclosure of VIEs related to differential membership interests at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Certain subsidiaries of NEP OpCo have noncontrolling interests in entities accounted for under the equity method that are considered VIEs.
NEP has an indirect equity method investment in three NEER solar projects with a total generating capacity of 277 MW and battery storage capacity of 230 MW. Through a series of transactions, a subsidiary of NEP issued 1,000,000 NEP OpCo Class B

(unaudited)
Units, Series 1 and 1,000,000 NEP OpCo Class B Units, Series 2, to NEER for approximately 50% of the ownership interests in the three solar projects (non-economic ownership interests). NEER, as holder of the NEP OpCo Class B Units, will retain 100% of the economic rights in the projects to which the respective Class B Units relate, including the right to all distributions paid by the project subsidiaries that own the projects to NEP OpCo. NEER has agreed to indemnify NEP against all risks relating to NEP’s ownership of the projects until NEER offers to sell economic interests to NEP and NEP accepts such offer, if NEP chooses to do so. NEER has also agreed to continue to manage the operation of the projects at its own cost, and to contribute to the projects any capital necessary for the operation of the projects, until NEER offers to sell economic interests to NEP and NEP accepts such offer. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NEP's equity method investment related to the non-economic ownership interests of approximately $123 million and $98 million, respectively, is reflected as noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. All equity in earnings of the non-economic ownership interests is allocated to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. NEP is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate these entities because it does not control any of the ongoing activities of these entities, was not involved in the initial design of these entities and does not have a controlling interest in these entities.
7. Debt
Significant long-term debt issuances and borrowings by subsidiaries of NEP during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were as follows:

Date Issued/Borrowed |  | Debt Issuances/Borrowings |  | Interest Rate |  | Principal Amount |  | Maturity Date

————————————
(a)Variable rate is based on an underlying index plus a margin.
(b)At September 30, 2023, approximately $545 million of borrowings were outstanding and $53 million of letters of credit were issued under the NEP OpCo credit facility. Approximately $11 million of the outstanding borrowings have a maturity date in 2025. In October 2023, $85 million was drawn under the NEP OpCo credit facility and $35 million was repaid. See Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests regarding Class B membership interests in STX Midstream.
(c)See Note 9 – Related Party Long-term Debt.
(d)Borrowings used to fund a portion of the cash used for NEP's repurchase of the Class B noncontrolling membership interests in STX Midstream (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests regarding Class B membership interests in STX Midstream). At September 30, 2023, approximately $177 million of borrowings were outstanding under the STX Holdings revolving credit facility. In October 2023, approximately $60 million was drawn under the STX Holdings revolving credit facility.
(e)Borrowings used to provide funds to repay a portion of the amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility in July 2023.
In February 2023, the loan parties extended the maturity date from February 2027 to February 2028 for essentially all of the NEP OpCo credit facility.
NEP OpCo and its subsidiaries' secured long-term debt agreements are secured by liens on certain assets and contain provisions which, under certain conditions, could restrict the payment of distributions or related party fee payments. At September 30, 2023, NEP and its subsidiaries were in compliance with all financial debt covenants under their financings.

Convertible Notes – In August 2023, as a result of NEP's distribution to common unitholders on August 14, 2023, the conversion ratio of NEP's 2020 convertible notes was adjusted. At September 30, 2023, the conversion rate, which is subject to certain adjustments, was 13.4422 NEP common units per $1,000 of the 2020 convertible notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $74.3926 per NEP common unit. At September 30, 2023, the 2020 capped call options have a strike price of $74.3926 and a cap price of $117.7886, subject to certain adjustments. In November 2023, as a result of NEP's distribution authorized by the board of directors (see Note 8 – Distributions), the conversion ratio of NEP's 2021 convertible notes was adjusted. At November 6, 2023, the conversion rate, which is subject to certain adjustments, was 11.3323 NEP common units per $1,000 of the 2021 convertible notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $88.2433 per NEP common unit. At November 6, 2023, the 2021 capped call options have a strike price of $88.2433 and a cap price of $110.3038, subject to certain adjustments.
In connection with the issuance of the 2022 convertible notes, NEP entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which, among other things, NEP has agreed to file a shelf registration statement with the SEC and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective on or prior to December 12, 2023, covering resales of NEP common units, if any, issuable upon a conversion of the 2022 convertible notes.
Upon conversion of NEP's convertible notes, NEP will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, NEP common units or a combination of cash and common units, at NEP's election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of NEP's conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted. At September 30, 2023, NEP does not anticipate issuing common units in connection with a conversion of any of the convertible notes due to the current conversion price of each of the respective convertible notes and NEP having control of how to settle its conversion obligation.

Distributions – On October 23, 2023, the board of directors of NEP authorized a distribution of $0.8675 per common unit payable on November 14, 2023 to its common unitholders of record on November 6, 2023.
Earnings Per Unit – Diluted earnings per unit is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common units and potential common units outstanding during the period, including the dilutive effect of convertible notes. The dilutive effect of the 2022 convertible notes, 2021 convertible notes and the 2020 convertible notes is computed using the if-converted method.
The reconciliation of NEP's basic and diluted earnings per unit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30, |

ATM Program – During the three months ended September 30, 2023, NEP did not issue any common units under its at-the-market equity issuance program (ATM program). During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP issued approximately 5.1 million common units under the ATM program for net proceeds of approximately $314 million. NEP most recently renewed its ATM program in March 2023. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP issued approximately 1.8 million common units under the ATM program, for net proceeds of approximately $145 million. Fees related to the ATM program were approximately $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and $1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Common Unit Issuances – During the three months ended September 30, 2023, NEE Equity did not exchange any NEP OpCo common units for NEP common units. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP issued approximately 1.7 million

(unaudited)
NEP common units upon NEE Equity's exchange of NEP OpCo common units on a one-for-one basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP issued approximately 0.8 million NEP common units upon NEE Equity's exchange of NEP OpCo common units on a one-for-one basis.
Class B Noncontrolling Interests – In January 2023, NEP sold its ownership interests in one wind project with a net generating capacity of approximately 62 MW to a third party and approximately $45 million of the cash proceeds from the sale were distributed to the third-party owner of Class B membership interests in NEP Renewables II (see Note 10 – Disposal of Wind Project).
In March 2023, relating to the December 2022 acquisition, a wind generation facility in New York with net generating capacity of approximately 54 MW was transferred to NEP Renewables IV. See Note 1.
In 2019, a subsidiary of NEP sold Class B membership interests in STX Midstream, NEP's subsidiary which owns the Texas pipelines, to a third-party investor. During the first half of 2023, NEP completed the buyout of 50% of the originally issued Class B membership interests in STX Midstream for a cumulative purchase price of approximately $390 million which was funded using proceeds generated from unit sales executed under the ATM program and draws on the STX Holdings revolving credit facility (see ATM Program above and Note 7). In September 2023, NEP exercised its option to purchase an additional 25% of the originally issued Class B membership interests in STX Midstream for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $201 million and, in October 2023, NEP exercised its option to purchase the final 25% for a purchase price of approximately $201 million which completes the entire buyout of the Class B membership interests in STX Midstream. The purchase price for the final two buyouts was funded primarily using draws on the NEP OpCo credit facility and the STX Holdings revolving credit facility (see Note 7). NEP entered into an agreement to sell its Texas pipelines and expects to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale to pay off the STX Holdings revolving credit facility and pay down the NEP OpCo credit facility for the amounts borrowed to buy out the Class B membership interests in STX Midstream (see Note 10 - Disposal of Texas Pipelines).
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP recognized less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively, of other comprehensive income related to equity method investees. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP recognized less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively, of other comprehensive income related to equity method investees. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, NEP's accumulated other comprehensive loss totaled approximately $16 million and $17 million, respectively, of which $9 million and $9 million, respectively, was attributable to noncontrolling interest and $7 million and $8 million, respectively, was attributable to NEP.
9. Related Party Transactions
Each project entered into O&M agreements and ASAs with subsidiaries of NEER whereby the projects pay a certain annual fee plus actual costs incurred in connection with certain O&M and administrative services performed under these agreements. These services are reflected as operations and maintenance in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, certain NEP subsidiaries pay affiliates for transmission and retail power services which are reflected as operations and maintenance in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. Certain projects have also entered into various types of agreements including those related to shared facilities and transmission lines, transmission line easements, technical support and construction coordination with subsidiaries of NEER whereby certain fees or cost reimbursements are paid to, or received by, certain subsidiaries of NEER.
Management Services Agreement – Under the MSA, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of NEE provides operational, management and administrative services to NEP, including managing NEP’s day-to-day affairs and providing individuals to act as NEP’s executive officers and directors, in addition to those services that are provided under the existing O&M agreements and ASAs described above between NEER subsidiaries and NEP subsidiaries. NEP OpCo pays NEE an annual management fee equal to the greater of 1% of the sum of NEP OpCo’s net income plus interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense less certain non-cash, non-recurring items for the most recently ended fiscal year and $4 million (as adjusted for inflation beginning in 2016), which is paid in quarterly installments with an additional payment each January to the extent 1% of the sum of NEP OpCo’s net income plus interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense less certain non-cash, non-recurring items for the preceding fiscal year exceeds $4 million (as adjusted for inflation beginning in 2016). NEP OpCo also made certain payments to NEE based on the achievement by NEP OpCo of certain target quarterly distribution levels to its unitholders. In May 2023, the MSA was amended to suspend these payments to be paid by NEP OpCo in respect to each calendar quarter beginning with the payment related to the period commencing on (and including) January 1, 2023 and expiring on (and including) December 31, 2026. NEP’s O&M expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 include approximately $3 million and $49 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 include approximately $43 million and $122 million, respectively, related to the MSA.
Cash Sweep and Credit Support Agreement – NEP OpCo is a party to the CSCS agreement with NEER under which NEER and certain of its affiliates provide credit support in the form of letters of credit and guarantees to satisfy NEP’s subsidiaries’ contractual obligations. NEP OpCo pays NEER an annual credit support fee based on the level and cost of the credit support

provided, payable in quarterly installments. NEP’s O&M expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 include approximately $2 million and $6 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 include approximately $2 million and $6 million, respectively, related to the CSCS agreement.
NEER and certain of its affiliates may withdraw funds (Project Sweeps) from NEP OpCo under the CSCS agreement or NEP OpCo's subsidiaries in connection with certain long-term debt agreements, and hold those funds in accounts belonging to NEER or its affiliates to the extent the funds are not required to pay project costs or otherwise required to be maintained by NEP's subsidiaries. NEER and its affiliates may keep the funds until the financing agreements permit distributions to be made, or, in the case of NEP OpCo, until such funds are required to make distributions or to pay expenses or other operating costs or NEP OpCo otherwise demands the return of such funds. If NEER or its affiliates fail to return withdrawn funds when required by NEP OpCo's subsidiaries’ financing agreements, the lenders will be entitled to draw on any credit support provided by NEER or its affiliates in the amount of such withdrawn funds. If NEER or one of its affiliates realizes any earnings on the withdrawn funds prior to the return of such funds, it will be permitted to retain those earnings. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the cash sweep amounts held in accounts belonging to NEER or its affiliates were approximately $92 million and $298 million, respectively, and are included in due from related parties on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Guarantees and Letters of Credit Entered into by Related Parties – Certain PPAs include requirements of the project entities to meet certain performance obligations. NEECH or NEER has provided letters of credit or guarantees for certain of these performance obligations and payment of any obligations from the transactions contemplated by the PPAs. In addition, certain financing agreements require cash and cash equivalents to be reserved for various purposes. In accordance with the terms of these financing agreements, guarantees from NEECH have been substituted in place of these cash and cash equivalents reserve requirements. Also, under certain financing agreements, indemnifications have been provided by NEECH. In addition, certain interconnection agreements and site certificates require letters of credit or a surety bond to secure certain payment or restoration obligations related to those agreements. NEECH also guarantees the Project Sweep amounts held in accounts belonging to NEER, as described above. In addition, NEECH and NEER provided guarantees associated with obligations, primarily incurred and future construction payables, associated with the December 2022 acquisition from NEER discussed in Note 1. At September 30, 2023, NEECH or NEER guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or surety bonds totaling approximately $2.7 billion related to these obligations.
Due from Related Parties – Current amounts due from related parties on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily represent construction completion costs NEER owes NEP associated with the December 2022 acquisition and transfer of Eight Point (see Note 1). Substantially all of these construction costs are subject to structured payables arrangements which were primarily entered into while the projects were owned by NEER. Under NEE's structured payables program, negotiable drafts were issued, backed by NEECH guarantees, to settle invoices with suppliers with payment terms that extended the original invoice due date (typically 30 days) to less than one year. NEE, NEP and their subsidiaries are not party to any contractual agreements between the suppliers and the applicable financial institutions. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the due from related parties balance associated with NEE's structured payables program were approximately $177 million and $770 million, respectively, with corresponding amounts in accounts payable and accrued expenses on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Related Party Tax Receivable – In 2018, NEP and NEE entered into a tax sharing agreement and, as a result, NEP recorded a related party tax receivable of approximately $18 million which was reflected in noncontrolling interests on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. In June 2023, NEE contributed 100,169 NEP OpCo units to NEP as payment to settle this related party tax receivable and the units were subsequently cancelled. Approximately $13 million, primarily related to the difference between the value of the related party tax receivable and the value of the NEP OpCo units received, was recorded as an adjustment to common unit equity and noncontrolling interests.
Related Party Long-Term Debt – In connection with the December 2022 acquisition from NEER of Emerald Breeze (see Note 1), a subsidiary of NEP acquired a note payable from a subsidiary of NEER relating to restricted cash reserve funds put in place for certain operational costs at the project based on a requirement of the differential membership investor. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the note payable was approximately $62 million and $48 million, respectively and is included in long-term debt on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The note payable does not bear interest and does not have a maturity date.
Due to Related Parties – Noncurrent amounts due to related parties on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily represent amounts owed by certain of NEP's wind projects to NEER to refund NEER for certain transmission costs paid on behalf of the wind projects. Amounts will be paid to NEER as the wind projects receive payments from third parties for related notes receivable recorded in noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Transportation and Fuel Management Agreements – A subsidiary of NEP assigned to a subsidiary of NEER certain gas commodity agreements in exchange for entering into transportation agreements and a fuel management agreement whereby the benefits of the gas commodity agreements (net of transportation paid to the NEP subsidiary) are passed back to the NEP

subsidiary. NEP recognized revenues related to the transportation and fuel management agreements of approximately $2 million and $5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and $3 million and $6 million, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
10. Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Restricted Cash – A t September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NEP had approximately $49 million and $49 million, respectively, of restricted cash included in current other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is primarily related to an operating cash reserve. Restricted cash reported as current assets are recorded as such based on the anticipated use of these funds.
Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment consists of the following:

| September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| (millions)
Property, plant and equipment, gross | $ | 18,172 |  |  | $ | 17,039 |
Accumulated depreciation | (2,479) |  |  | (2,090) |
Property, plant and equipment – net | $ | 15,693 |  |  | $ | 14,949 |

Noncontrolling Interests – At September 30, 2023, noncontrolling interests on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily reflect the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests (the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests in NEP Renewables II, NEP Pipelines, STX Midstream, Genesis Holdings, NEP Renewables III and NEP Renewables IV owned by third parties), the differential membership interests, NEE Equity's approximately 51.4% noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo, NEER's approximately 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in Silver State, NEER's 33% noncontrolling interest in Sunlight Renewables Holdings and NEER's 51% noncontrolling interest in Emerald Breeze (see Note 1), non-affiliated parties' 10% interest in one of the Texas pipelines and 50% interest in Star Moon Holdings and the non-economic ownership interests. The impact of the net income (loss) attributable to the differential membership interests and the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests are allocated to NEE Equity's noncontrolling ownership interest and the net income attributable to NEP based on the respective ownership percentage of NEP OpCo. Details of the activity in noncontrolling interests are below:

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – In connection with the December 2021 acquisition from NEER, NEP recorded redeemable noncontrolling interests of approximately $321 million relating to certain contingencies whereby NEP may have been obligated to either redeem interests of third-party investors in certain projects which were under construction or return proceeds to third-party investors in certain projects. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the construction of projects was completed which resolved one of the contingencies and the redeemable noncontrolling interests amount related to the completion of the projects was reclassified to noncontrolling interests. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, legislation was enacted establishing a solar PTC, which substantially resolved the contingencies related to the return of proceeds and resulted in $93 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests being reclassified to noncontrolling interests.
In connection with the sale of differential membership interests to a third-party investor in December 2022, NEP recorded redeemable noncontrolling interests of approximately $101 million relating to certain contingencies whereby NEP may have been obligated to reacquire all or a portion of the third-party investor's interests in an under construction project. During the three months ending September 30, 2023, the construction of the project was completed which resolved the contingencies and the redeemable noncontrolling interests amount of approximately $105 million was reclassified to noncontrolling interests.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets – Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment at least annually or whenever an event indicating impairment may have occurred. As a result of the significant decline in trading price of NEP’s common units during the final three trading days of the third quarter of 2023, NEP tested its goodwill for impairment by applying a fair value-based analysis using an assessment date of September 30, 2023 and determined, based on the results, that its goodwill was not impaired. NEP will continue to monitor its goodwill carrying value for future impairments.
Disposal of Pipeline – In April 2022, subsidiaries of NEP sold all of their ownership interests in an approximately 156-mile, 16-inch pipeline that transports natural gas in Texas to a third party for total consideration of approximately $203 million. Approximately $70 million of the cash proceeds from the sale were distributed to the third-party owner of Class B membership interests in STX Midstream.
Disposal of Wind Project – In January 2023, a subsidiary of NEP completed the sale of a 62 MW wind project located in Barnes County, North Dakota for approximately $50 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Approximately $45 million of the cash proceeds from the sale were distributed to the third-party owner of Class B membership interests in NEP Renewables II (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests). At December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets related to the wind project of approximately $51 million, which primarily represent property, plant and equipment – net, were classified as held for sale and included in current other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheet and liabilities associated with assets held for sale of approximately $1 million were included in current other liabilities on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Disposal of Texas Pipelines – In November 2023, a subsidiary of NEP entered into a purchase and sale agreement (PSA) pursuant to which NEP agreed to sell its ownership interests in the Texas pipelines. NEP plans for the sale to close during the first half of 2024 for total cash consideration of $1.815 billion, subject to repayment of STX Holdings indebtedness and certain adjustments. The transaction is subject to the receipt of Hart-Scott-Rodino anti-trust approval, satisfactory amendments to certain contracts and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. NEP expects to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale to pay off the STX Holdings outstanding debt, pay down the NEP OpCo credit facility for the amounts borrowed to buy out the Class B membership interests in STX Midstream (see Note 7 and Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests) and to buy out the Class B membership interests in NEP Renewables II that are expected to occur over the next two years.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
NEP is a growth-oriented limited partnership formed to acquire, manage and own contracted clean energy projects with stable long-term cash flows. NEP consolidates the results of NEP OpCo and its subsidiaries through its controlling interest in the general partner of NEP OpCo. At September 30, 2023, NEP owned an approximately 48.6% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo and NEE Equity owned a noncontrolling 51.4% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo. Through NEP OpCo, NEP has ownership interests in a portfolio of contracted renewable generation assets consisting of wind, solar and battery storage projects and a portfolio of contracted natural gas pipeline assets. NEP's financial results are shown on a consolidated basis with financial results attributable to NEE Equity reflected in noncontrolling interests.
This discussion 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 2022 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 period.
In 2022, indirect subsidiaries of NEP completed the acquisition of ownership interests in wind and solar-plus-storage generation facilities and the acquisition of a battery storage facility with a combined net generating capacity totaling approximately 992 MW and net storage capacity totaling 186 MW and sold their ownership interests in a pipeline in Texas. In March 2023, in connection with the December 2022 acquisition, a wind generation facility with a net generating capacity of approximately 54 MW was transferred to a subsidiary of NEP (see Note 1). In January 2023, NEP completed the sale of a 62 MW wind project located in North Dakota. See Note 10 – Disposal of Wind Project. In May 2023, NEP announced a plan to sell its natural gas pipeline assets. In June 2023, an indirect subsidiary of NEP completed the acquisition of ownership interests in a portfolio of wind and solar generation facilities with a combined net generating capacity totaling approximately 688 MW from NEER (see Note 1). In July 2023, Yellow Pine Solar, a 125 MW solar generation and 65 MW storage facility in Nevada, which was part of the December 2022 acquisition, achieved commercial operations. In November 2023, NEP entered into an agreement to sell its ownership interests in the Texas pipelines (see Note 10 – Disposal of Texas Pipelines).

See Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests.
28

Liquidity and Capital Resources
NEP’s ongoing operations use cash to fund O&M expenses, including related party fees discussed in Note 9, maintenance capital expenditures, debt service payments and related derivative obligations (see Note 7 and Note 3), distributions to common unitholders and distributions to the holders of noncontrolling interests. NEP expects to satisfy these requirements primarily with cash on hand and cash generated from operations. In addition, as a growth-oriented limited partnership, NEP expects from time to time to make acquisitions (see Note 1), including in connection with the exercise of buyout rights (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests and Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests), and other investments (see Note 11). These acquisitions and investments are expected to be funded with borrowings under credit facilities or term loans, issuances of indebtedness, issuances of additional NEP common units, including through its ATM program, or capital raised pursuant to other financing structures, cash on hand and cash generated from operations and expected divestitures (see Note 10 – Disposal of Texas Pipelines). NEP may also utilize non-voting common units (convertible into common units) to fund the payment of specified portions of the purchase price payable in connection with the exercise of certain buyout rights (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests and Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests). In addition, NEP expects to fund debt maturities through refinancing. NEP may, but does not expect to, issue common units to satisfy NEP's conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes upon conversion (see Note 7 – Convertible Notes).
These sources of funds are expected to be adequate to provide for NEP's short-term and long-term liquidity and capital needs, although its ability to make future acquisitions, fund additional expansion or repowering of existing projects, fund the purchase price payable in connection with the exercise of buyout rights, refinance debt maturities and maintain and increase its distributions to common unitholders will depend on its ability to access capital on acceptable terms.
As a normal part of its business, depending on market conditions, NEP expects from time to time to consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance its indebtedness or equity arrangements. In addition, NEP expects from time to time to consider potential investments in new acquisitions and the expansion or repowering of existing projects. These events may cause NEP to seek additional debt or equity financing, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. If available, additional debt financing including refinancing could impose operating restrictions, additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants, including limitations on distributions to common unitholders.
NEP OpCo has agreed to allow NEER or one of its affiliates to withdraw funds received by NEP OpCo or its subsidiaries and to hold those funds in accounts of NEER or one of its affiliates to the extent the funds are not required to pay project costs or otherwise required to be maintained by NEP's subsidiaries, until the financing agreements permit distributions to be made, or, in the case of NEP OpCo, until such funds are required to make distributions or to pay expenses or other operating costs. NEP OpCo will have a claim for any funds that NEER fails to return:
• when required by its subsidiaries’ financings;
• when its subsidiaries’ financings otherwise permit distributions to be made to NEP OpCo;
• when funds are required to be returned to NEP OpCo; or
• when otherwise demanded by NEP OpCo.
In addition, NEER and certain of its affiliates may withdraw funds in connection with certain long-term debt agreements and hold those funds in accounts belonging to NEER or its affiliates and provide credit support in the amount of such withdrawn funds. If NEER fails to return withdrawn funds when required by NEP OpCo's subsidiaries’ financing agreements, the lenders will be entitled to draw on any credit support provided by NEER in the amount of such withdrawn funds.
If NEER or one of its affiliates realizes any earnings on the withdrawn funds prior to the return of such funds, it will be permitted to retain those earnings.
Liquidity Position
At September 30, 2023, NEP's liquidity position was approximately $2,504 million. The table below provides the components of NEP’s liquidity position:

| September 30, 2023 |  | Maturity Date
| (millions) |  |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 332 |  |  |
Amounts due under the CSCS agreement | 92 |  |  |
Revolving credit facilities(a) | 2,500 |  |  | 2028
Less borrowings(b) | (545) |  |  |
Less issued letters of credit | (53) |  |  |
NEP Renewables IV final funding(c) | 178 |  |  |
Total | $ | 2,504 |  |  |

____________________
(a) Approximately $50 million of the NEP OpCo credit facility expires in 2025. Excludes a credit facility due to restrictions on the use of the borrowings.
(b) Approximately $11 million of such borrowings have a maturity date in 2025. In October 2023, $85 million was drawn and $35 million was repaid on the NEP OpCo credit facility.
(c) The final funding is expected to occur by the end of 2023.
29

Management believes that NEP's liquidity position and cash flows from operations will be adequate to finance O&M expenses, maintenance capital expenditures, distributions to its unitholders and liquidity commitments. Management continues to regularly monitor NEP's financing needs consistent with prudent balance sheet management.
Financing Arrangements
NEP OpCo and its direct subsidiary are parties to the $2,500 million NEP OpCo credit facility. In February 2023, the maturity date was extended from February 2027 to February 2028 for essentially all of the NEP OpCo credit facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, approximately $865 million was drawn under the NEP OpCo credit facility, $140 million of which was used to fund a portion of the buyout of the Class B membership interest in STX Midstream, and $320 million was repaid. Also during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, approximately $330 million of senior secured limited-recourse debt was borrowed. In connection with buyouts of Class B membership interests in STX Midstream, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, approximately $177 million was drawn under the STX Holdings revolving credit facility and, in October 2023, $85 million was drawn under the NEP OpCo credit facility and approximately $60 million was drawn under the STX Holdings revolving credit facility. Also in October 2023, $35 million was repaid on the NEP OpCo credit facility. See Note 7 and Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests regarding Class B membership interests in STX Midstream.
NEP OpCo and certain indirect subsidiaries are subject to financings that contain financial covenants and distribution tests, including debt service coverage ratios. In general, these financings contain covenants customary for these types of financings, including limitations on investments and restricted payments. Certain of NEP's financings provide for interest payable at a fixed interest rate. However, certain of NEP's financings accrue interest at variable rates based on an underlying index plus a margin. Interest rate contracts were entered into for certain of these financings to hedge against interest rate movements with respect to interest payments on the related borrowings. In addition, under the project-level financing structures, each project or group of projects will be permitted to pay distributions out of available cash so long as certain conditions are satisfied, including that reserves are funded with cash or credit support, no default or event of default under the applicable financing has occurred and is continuing at the time of such distribution or would result therefrom, and each project or group of projects is otherwise in compliance with the related covenants. For substantially all of the project-level financing structures, minimum debt service coverage ratios must be satisfied in order to make a distribution. For one project-level financing, the project must maintain a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio in order to make a distribution. At September 30, 2023, NEP's subsidiaries were in compliance with all financial debt covenants under their financings.
Equity Arrangements
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP issued approximately 5.1 million common units under the ATM program, which was renewed in March 2023. At September 30, 2023, NEP may issue up to approximately $337 million in additional common units under the ATM program.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP exercised its buyout right and purchased 75% of the originally issued Class B membership interests in STX Midstream. In October 2023, NEP exercised its buyout right and purchased the final 25% of the Class B membership interests in STX Midstream which completes the entire buyout. See Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests and Note 10 – Disposal of Texas Pipelines.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP issued approximately 1.7 million NEP common units upon NEE Equity's exchange of NEP OpCo common units on a one-for-one basis.
Capital Expenditures
Annual capital spending plans are developed based on projected requirements for the projects. Capital expenditures primarily represent the estimated cost of capital improvements, including construction expenditures that are expected to increase NEP OpCo’s operating income or operating capacity over the long term. Capital expenditures for projects that have already commenced commercial operations are generally not significant because most expenditures relate to repairs and maintenance and are expensed when incurred. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, NEP had capital expenditures of approximately $1,064 million and $958 million, respectively. The 2023 capital expenditures primarily relate to the renewable energy facilities and battery storage facility which were acquired under construction from NEER in December 2022. Such expenditures are reimbursed by NEER as contemplated in the acquisition (see Note 1). The 2022 capital expenditures primarily reflect the newly constructed renewable energy and battery storage facilities which were acquired from NEER in December 2021. Estimates of planned capital expenditures, including those relating to expected wind turbine repowerings, are subject to continuing review and adjustments and actual capital expenditures may vary significantly from these estimates.
Cash Distributions to Unitholders
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, NEP distributed approximately $228 million to its common unitholders. On October 23, 2023, the board of directors of NEP authorized a distribution of $0.8675 per common unit payable on November 14, 2023 to its common unitholders of record on November 6, 2023.
30

Credit Ratings
NEP’s liquidity, ability to access credit and capital markets and cost of borrowings is dependent on its credit ratings. As of November 6, 2023, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings (S&P) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. continue to assign corporate credit ratings to NEP of Ba1, BB and BB+, respectively. Each rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization. On October 3, 2023, S&P issued a bulletin noting key drivers impacting NEP's credit profile that it is continuing to monitor, among others, its planned sale of the Texas pipelines (see Note 10 – Disposal of Texas Pipelines) and use of the sale proceeds to address the buyouts of the Class B membership interests in STX Midstream (see Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests) and NEP Renewables II, and the expected refinancing of the $1.25 billion of NEP and NEP OpCo debt maturities in 2024.
Cash Flows
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
The following table reflects the changes in cash flows for the comparative periods:

| Nine Months Ended September 30, |  |

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | $ | 109 |  |  | $ | (499) |  |  | $ | 608 |

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by the timing of transactions impacting working capital, partly offset by higher operating cash flows from new projects and lower corporate O&M expenses due to the suspension of the IDR fee.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

31

The change in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities primarily reflects higher issuances of long-term debt and higher proceeds related to issuance of common units – net, partly offset by the buyout of Class B noncontrolling interests (see Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests and Note 8 – Class B Noncontrolling Interests) and higher payments related to Class B noncontrolling interests and differential membership interests.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
NEP is exposed to several market risks in its normal business activities. Market risk is the potential loss that may result from market changes associated with its business. The types of market risks include interest rate and counterparty credit risks.
Interest Rate Risk
NEP is exposed to risk resulting from changes in interest rates associated with outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings. NEP manages 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 swaps are used to mitigate and adjust interest rate exposure when deemed appropriate based upon market conditions or when required by financing agreements (see Note 3).
NEP has long-term debt instruments that subject it to the risk of loss associated with movements in market interest rates. At September 30, 2023, approximately 86% of the long-term debt, including current maturities, was not exposed to fluctuations in interest expense as it was either fixed rate debt or financially hedged. At September 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of NEP's long-term debt was approximately $6.2 billion and the carrying value of the long-term debt was $6.5 billion. See Note 4 – Financial Instruments Recorded at Other than Fair Value. Based upon a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates, the fair value of NEP's long-term debt would increase by approximately $47 million at September 30, 2023.
At September 30, 2023, NEP had interest rate contracts with a net notional amount of approximately $2.2 billion related to managing exposure to the variability of cash flows associated with outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings. Based upon a hypothetical 10% decrease in rates, NEP’s net derivative assets at September 30, 2023 would decrease by approximately $55 million. In October 2023, NEP entered into forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $1.85 billion to manage interest rate risk associated with forecasted debt issuances.
Counterparty Credit Risk
Risks surrounding counterparty performance and credit risk could ultimately impact the amount and timing of expected cash flows. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from non-performance or non-payment by counterparties under the terms of their contractual obligations. NEP monitors and manages credit risk through credit policies that include a credit approval process and the use of credit mitigation measures such as prepayment arrangements in certain circumstances. NEP also seeks to mitigate counterparty risk by having a diversified portfolio of counterparties.

As of September 30, 2023, NEP had performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of NEP'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 NEP concluded that NEP's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
NEP is continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its operations and of its internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout NEP. However, there has been no change in NEP'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 NEP's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, NEP's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
None. With regard to environmental proceedings to which a governmental authority is a party, NEP's policy is to disclose any such proceeding if it is reasonably expected to result in monetary sanctions of greater than or equal to $1 million.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the 2022 Form 10-K except in light of NEP's entry into an agreement to sell its Texas pipelines in November 2023, the risk factor disclosed in Item 8.01 Other Events in the May 8, 2023 Form 8-K is updated and replaced as follows:
If NEP is not able to close the sale of the Texas pipelines as planned, NEP would have to rely on other sources of capital to finance its plan to purchase noncontrolling membership interests in certain of its subsidiaries and to repay certain borrowings.
NEP has entered into an agreement to sell its Texas pipelines and, upon the closing of such sale, plans to use the net proceeds to purchase outstanding noncontrolling Class B membership interests (Class B interests) in NEP Renewables II and to repay revolving credit facility borrowings it incurred to purchase in September and October 2023 the remaining outstanding Class B interests in STX Midstream.
Completion of the Texas pipelines sale, which NEP plans to occur in the first half of 2024, is conditioned upon satisfaction of customary closing conditions, satisfactory amendments to certain agreements with third parties and approval pursuant to, or the expiration of applicable waiting periods under, the Hart–Scott–Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Although NEP and the purchaser under the sale agreement have agreed to use certain efforts to satisfy these conditions, there can be no assurance that these conditions will be satisfied on a timely basis or at all.
If NEP is not able to close the sale of the Texas pipelines as planned, NEP would have to rely on other sources of capital, such as cash generated from sales of other assets, issuances of debt or equity securities, or cash flows otherwise available for distributions, to finance its planned activities described above.
The factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2022 Form 10-K and in this Part II, Item 1A., as well as other information set forth in this report, which could materially adversely affect NEP's business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders, should be carefully considered. The risks described in the 2022 Form 10-K and this Part II, Item 1A. are not the only risks facing NEP. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to NEP, or that are currently deemed to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect NEP's business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders.
Item 5. Other Information
(a) On November 6, 2023, NextEra Energy Partners Ventures, LLC, a subsidiary of NEP (the seller), entered into a purchase and sale agreement with a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Kinder Morgan) (the purchaser). Pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the purchaser agreed to acquire all of NEP's interests in NET Midstream, LLC and NEP DC Holdings, LLC, both NEP subsidiaries that indirectly own the interests in the Texas pipelines. The purchase and sale agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties. In addition, each party is obligated, subject to certain limitations, to indemnify the other for certain customary and other specified matters, including breaches of representations and warranties, nonfulfillment or breaches of covenants and for certain liabilities and third-party claims. NEP plans for the sale to close during the first half of 2024 for total cash consideration of $1.815 billion, subject to repayment of STX Holdings indebtedness and certain adjustments for changes in working capital and potential contract amendments. The transaction is subject to the receipt of Hart-Scott-Rodino anti-trust approval, satisfactory amendments to certain contracts and satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The foregoing description of the purchase and sale agreement is qualified in its entirety by the text of the purchase and sale agreement which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated herein by reference.
(c) During the three months ended September 30, 2023, no director or officer of NEP adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
(d) In accordance with the NEP partnership agreement, on October 23, 2023 the NEP board of directors modified the eligibility requirements for holders of units of NEP (eligible holders) that wish to submit the name of a qualified director nominee for inclusion in NEP’s proxy statement for the 2024 annual meeting of limited partners of NEP (2024 annual meeting). Under the modified requirements, in order to submit a proxy access nominee for the 2024 annual meeting, an eligible holder must have owned the required units, as defined in the NEP partnership agreement, continuously for at least twelve months prior to the date of nomination. Notice of a proxy access nominee for the 2024 annual meeting must be received by NEP’s Corporate Secretary at 700 Universe Boulevard, Juno Beach, Florida 33408 no earlier than November 4, 2023 and no later than the close of business on December 7, 2023.

Eligible holders who wish to submit nominees will be required to satisfy the requirements set forth in the NEP partnership agreement.
