Variable Interest Entities [Abstract]
Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)	Variable Interest Entities NEER – As of September 30, 2026, NEE consolidates a number of VIEs within the NEER segment. Subsidiaries within the NEER segment are considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since they control the most significant activities of these VIEs, including operations and maintenance, and they have the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs. Five indirect subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources have an ownership interest ranging from approximately 50% to 67% in entities which own and operate solar generation facilities with generating capacity of approximately 280 MW. Each of the subsidiaries is considered a VIE since the non-managing members have no substantive rights over the managing members, and is consolidated by NextEra Energy Resources. These entities sell their electric output to third parties under power sales contracts with expiration dates ranging from 2037 through 2042. These entities have third-party debt which is secured by liens against the assets of the entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NextEra Energy Resources for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs were approximately $503 million and $98 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2026, and $506 million and $148 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the assets and liabilities of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt, respectively. NextEra Energy Resources consolidates a VIE which has a 10% direct ownership interest in wind and solar generation facilities which have the capability of producing approximately 400 MW and 599 MW, respectively. These entities sell their electric output under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2034 through 2040. These entities are also considered a VIE because the holders of differential membership interests in these entities do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were approximately $1,270 million and $76 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2026, and $1,301 million and $71 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the assets of this VIE consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment. NextEra Energy Resources consolidates 31 VIEs that primarily relate to certain subsidiaries which have sold differential membership interests in entities which own and operate wind generation, solar generation and battery storage facilities with generating/storage capacity of approximately 11,303 MW, 3,751 MW and 1,526 MW, respectively. These entities sell, or will sell, their electric output either under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2027 through 2054 or in the spot market. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. NextEra Energy Resources has financing obligations with respect to these entities, including third-party debt which is secured by liens against the generation facilities and the other assets of these entities or by pledges of NextEra Energy Resources' ownership interest in these entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NextEra Energy Resources for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs totaled approximately $26,876 million and $901 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2026. There were 34 of these consolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2025 and the assets and liabilities of those VIEs at such date totaled approximately $28,768 million and $1,485 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the assets of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment. NextEra Energy Resources consolidates five VIEs that primarily relate to certain subsidiaries which sold project minority interests in 2026 (see Note 11 - Project Minority Interests) in entities which own and operate wind generation, solar generation and battery storage facilities with generating/storage capacity of approximately 386 MW, 274 MW and 200 MW, respectively, and own solar generation and battery storage facilities that, upon completion of construction, which is anticipated through 2027, are expected to have generating/battery storage capacity of approximately 885 MW and 1,198 MW, respectively. The subsidiaries of the VIEs also have sold differential membership interests. These entities sell, or will sell, their electric output either under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2037 through 2061 or in the spot market. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of the project minority interests and differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. As of September 30, 2026, the assets and liabilities associated with these VIEs totaled approximately $4,253 million and $571 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2026, the assets of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment. NextEra Energy Resources consolidates a VIE related to a subsidiary which is the managing member of an entity formed in 2026 that owns and operates solar generation assets and monetizes tax credits generated by such assets. This entity sells its electric output under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates in 2050 and 2051. The entity is considered a VIE because the non-managing member does not have substantive rights over the significant activities of the entity. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were approximately $964 million and $48 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2026, with the assets consisting primarily of property, plant and equipment. Other – As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, several NEE subsidiaries had investments totaling approximately $7,220 million ($5,468 million at FPL) and $6,592 million ($5,075 million at FPL), respectively, which are included in special use funds and noncurrent other assets on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheets and in special use funds on FPL's condensed consolidated balance sheets. These investments represented primarily commingled funds and asset-backed securities. NEE subsidiaries, including FPL, are not the primary beneficiaries and therefore do not consolidate any of these entities because they do not control any of the ongoing activities of these entities, were not involved in the initial design of these entities and do not have a controlling financial interest in these entities. Certain subsidiaries of NEE have noncontrolling interests in entities accounted for under the equity method, including NEE's noncontrolling interest in XPLR OpCo (see Note 6). These entities are limited partnerships or similar entity structures in which the limited partners or non-managing members do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities, and therefore are considered VIEs. NEE is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have a controlling financial interest in these entities, and therefore does not consolidate any of these entities. NEE’s investment in these entities totaled approximately $2,605 million and $2,525 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of September 30, 2026, subsidiaries of NEE had guarantees related to certain obligations of one of these entities, as well as commitments to invest an additional approximately $260 million in several of these entities. See further discussion of such guarantees and commitments in Note 12 – Commitments and – Contracts, respectively.
