ORDER NO. PSC -2023 -0354 -PCO -EI DOCKET NO. 20230017 -EI PAGE 3 subject to refund. Not later than December 31, 2023, FPL shall file documentation of the storm costs for Commission review and true -up of any excess or shortfall.' FPL has proposed to decrease the currently effective interim storm restoration recovery surcharges based on the Company's internal review of storm costs, as discussed immediately above. In paragraph 10 of the petition, FPL states that the updated surcharges are allocated to the rate classes consistent with the rate design approved in FPL's most recent rate cases We have reviewed the allocation to rate classes and find that the allocations provided in Appendix D to the petition are consistent with those approved in FPL's most recent rate case. Furthermore, we have reviewed the derivation of the surcharges provided in Appendix D to the petition, and find that the surcharges have been calculated correctly, using projected kilowatt hour (kWh) sales for January through March 2024. The proposed interim storm restoration recovery factors shall remain in effect until we approve a final true -up. The proposed interim storm restoration surcharges are shown on First Revised Tariff Sheet No. 8.030.7, provided in Appendix F to the petition. For residential customers the proposed surcharge will be 0.665 cents per kWh, which equates to a total surcharge of $6.65 for a 1,000 kWh monthly bill. The current surcharge is 1.53 cents per kWh, which equates to a total surcharge of $15.30 for a 1,000 kWh monthly bill. The storm cost recovery surcharge shall be included in the non -fuel energy charge on customer bills. Based on the foregoing, it is ORDERED by the Florida Public Service Commission that the Supplemental Petition to Modify the Interim Storm Surcharge Related to Hurricanes Ian and Nicole filed by Florida Power & Light Company is approved. It is further ORDERED that FPL's revised interim storm restoration recovery surcharges and associated tariff, as shown in Attachment A to this Order, are approved and shall become effective the first billing cycle of January 2024. It is further ORDERED that the revised interim storm restoration recovery factors shall remain in effect until we approve a final true -up. It is further ORDERED that this docket shall remain open pending final reconciliation of actual recoverable storm costs with the amount collected pursuant to the modified consolidated interim storm restoration recovery charge, and the calculation of a refund or additional charge if warranted. 4See Order No. PSC -2023 -0298 -PAA -EI, issued October 2, 2023, in Docket No. 20230017 -EI, In re: Petition for limited proceeding for recovery of incremental storm restoration costs related to Hurricanes Ian and Nicole, by Florida Power & Light Company.
