ORDER NO. PSC -2023 -0253 -TRF -EI DOCKET NO. 20230045 -El PAGE 7 hardening sooner. FPL stated that even in instances where facilities would have been kept overhead but hardened according to its SPP, undergrounding provides greater storm resiliency and day-to-day reliability, which benefits all customers. Additionally, voluntary underground conversions would help to mitigate the need for storm restoration work in the converted area and thus result in those resources being utilized elsewhere. Finally, FPL asserted that the proposed revision to Tariff Sheet No. 6.300 could fiurther incentivize customers to voluntarily pay for the conversion of non -hardened facilities and this would reduce the number of hardening projects that the general body of customers would pay for through the SPP Clause. A similar tariff was approved for Duke Energy Florida, LLC, in 2022 C. Conclusion We approve FPL's revisions to Tariff Sheet Nos. 6.300 and 9.722, effective August 31, 2023. Furthermore, we approve of FPL's request to include the waived existing facilities cost for all non -hardened overhead distribution facilities in net plant in service.
