Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements
Non-derivative fair value measurements consist of XPLR's cash equivalents. The fair value of these financial assets is determined by using the valuation techniques and inputs as described in Note 3 – Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Instruments. The fair value of money market funds that are included in cash and cash equivalents, current other assets and noncurrent other assets on XPLR's condensed consolidated balance sheets is estimated using a market approach based on current observable market prices.

Recurring Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements – XPLR’s fair value measurements made on a recurring basis by fair value hierarchy level are as follows:

(a)    At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, approximately $6,203 million and $6,298 million, respectively, of the fair value is estimated using a market approach based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues (Level 2); the balance is estimated using an income approach utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, considering the current credit profile of the debtor (Level 3). At December 31, 2025, approximately $494 million of the fair value relates to the 2022 convertible notes and is Level 2 (see Note 7).

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements – XPLR tested goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated that the fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying value. During the preparation of XPLR's March 31, 2025 financial statements, XPLR concluded that a triggering event occurred and it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying value as a result of the significant decline in trading price of XPLR's common units during the first quarter of 2025. Therefore, XPLR performed a quantitative analysis using a combination of (i) an income approach consisting of a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate fair value for noncontrolling interests, including Class B noncontrolling membership interests and differential membership interests, (ii) a market approach derived from the observable trading price of its common units at March 31, 2025 of $9.50 to estimate fair value for (a) its common units and (b) noncontrolling interests related to NEE Equity's interest in XPLR OpCo, and (iii) an estimated control premium for the reporting unit and determined that the fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying value. As a result, XPLR recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the first quarter of 2025 of approximately $253 million ($222 million after tax), or the full remaining carrying value of goodwill, which is reflected in its condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
