Florida's Corporate Service Commission's Nuclear Power Fleecing

State utility regulators approved a request by Florida Power & Light to charge customers $34.2 million for a pair of nuclear reactors in Miami-Dade County. The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, a non-profit organization that seeks clean energy solutions to climate change, slammed the regulators' decision.

“Once again the financial interests of the public took a backseat to a big power company's excessive speculation favoring utility shareholders. While FPL spends hundreds of thousands of dollars crowing about the lack of consumer protections for a proposed solar ballot initiative, they and their political friends are silent about the lack of consumer protections in this nuclear power fleecing."
