New or incremental load of 50 MW or more with an 85 percent load factor qualifies for Large Load Contract Service-1 or -2, approved as part of FPL's larger rate review and effective January 1, 2026. Both schedules carry minimum-term, take-or-pay and exit-fee provisions and collateral requirements. Duke Energy Florida has separately filed an updated large-load proposal in response to state law SB 484.
Also active in Florida: Florida's approach is notable for pairing a hard load-factor test (85 percent) with the minimum-term structure, meaning intermittent or highly variable large loads may not qualify for the standard large-load rate at all.
Figures compiled from the Edison Electric Institute's "Large Load Projects and Tariffs" (September 2026) member-company summary and public regulatory filings. Confirm current tariff terms directly with Florida Power & Light and the relevant state public utility commission before relying on any figure for a capital decision.
Weighing Florida against another state or a Canadian province with a different rate and interconnection picture entirely? Run both sides of the comparison through our licensed AI data centre cost configurator — it applies each jurisdiction's actual power rate, tax treatment and large-load tariff rules to the same seven build configurations.
Model This State on Your Own Site
Every figure above comes from the same power-cost and tariff dataset behind the SCR AI Build Configurator — a licensed, embeddable widget that models seven data centre build configurations against all nine Canadian provinces and all 50 US states plus DC, returning capital expenditure by line item, energy cost, revenue by commercial structure, EBITDA and payback.
| Licence | Price (CAD) | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $4,000 / domain / year | Advisors who need three lease-model configurations and a clipboard summary |
| Pro | $10,000 / domain / year | Consultants who send CSV deliverables to clients and want all seven configurations |
| Enterprise | From $25,000 / year, up to 3 domains | Developers and EPC firms who want the model on their own cost basis with attribution removed |
