In deregulated electricity markets, FPL handles the physical delivery of electricity (transmission and distribution), but you can choose your Retail Electric Provider (REP) for the generation portion of your bill. This means you can shop for competitive rates while FPL continues to maintain the power lines and handle outages.
When comparing electricity plans, look beyond the advertised rate. Check the contract length (month-to-month vs. fixed-term), early termination fees, minimum usage requirements, and whether the rate is fixed or variable. The Electricity Facts Label (EFL) provides standardized pricing information that makes comparison easier.
Fixed-rate plans lock in your per-kWh price for the contract term, protecting you from market fluctuations. Variable-rate plans can change monthly based on wholesale electricity prices. Fixed rates provide budget certainty, while variable rates may be lower during mild weather months but can spike during extreme heat or cold.
Switching your REP is straightforward and typically takes one billing cycle. FPL handles the transition seamlessly — there's no service interruption. Check your current contract for early termination fees before switching. Many REPs offer sign-up incentives like bill credits or gift cards for new customers.
