POLMANN ANDREW GILES FAY ORDER APPROVING FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY'S LIGHT EMITTING DIODE (LED) STREETLIGHT TARIFF AND LED STREETLIGHT AGREEMENT BY THE COMMISSION: BACKGROUND On December 30, 2019, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) filed a petition seeking approval of a permanent Light Emitting Diode (LED) Streetlight Tariff (LT -1) and accompanying LED Streetlight Agreement (LT -1 Agreement) (jointly, LED tariff). The optional LED tariff is available for lighting private or public streets, roadways, parking lots, homeowners associations' common areas, and parks. In March 2017, we approved the LED tariff as a three-year pilot program and directed FPL to file a petition by end of December 2019 to modify, terminate, or make permanent the pilot LED tariff and accompanying LT -1 Agreement.' Accordingly, FPL submitted the instant petition requesting the pilot program, with certain revisions, be made permanent. The proposed revisions to the LED tariff provide additional LED fixture options, and revised maintenance and conversion recovery charges based on updated costs. All other aspects of the pilot program remain unchanged. On February 11, 2020, FPL filed revised tariff sheets to correct minor errors. The revised LED tariff sheets are included in Attachment A to this order. This petition, as was the pilot program, is consistent with FPL's 2016 rate ease settlement which permits the filing of optional tariffs.2 In 2013, FPL began offering FPL -owned LED lighting under its Premium Lighting (PL - 1) tariff. The PL -1 tariff was first approved in 1998 and is available to any customer wishing to 'Order No. PSC -17 -0115 -TRF -EI, issued on March 28, 2017, in Docket No. 20160245 -EI, In re: Petition for approval of a new optional pilot LED streetlight tariff, by Florida Power & Light Company. 2 Order No. PSC -16 -0560 -AS -EI, issued on December 15, 2016, in Docket No. 20160021 -EI, In re: Petition for rate increase by Florida Power & Light Company.
