Renewable resources, mainly solar energy and biomass, plus petroleum coke and generation at industrial plants that use multiple fuels, accounted for almost all the remaining net generation in Florida.33 Almost all the state's recent and planned additions of generating capacity are natural gas-fueled or solar powered.34, Florida is the third-largest electricity consumer in the nation, after Texas and California.35 However, the state does not produce enough electricity to meet its power needs, and electricity demand is expected to increase as the state's population continues to grow.36,37,38 The residential sector, where more than 9 in 10 Florida households use electricity as their primary energy source for home heating and air conditioning, consumes more than half of the electricity used in Florida, the largest share of any state.39,40 The commercial sector accounts for about two-fifths of state consumption, and the industrial sector uses most of the rest. Long before climate change was a headline concern, FPL Group made a strategic decision to become a clean-energy leader. Michigan

Two hydroelectric plants in north Florida supply a small amount of power.58 However, the state's flat terrain gives Florida little opportunity for hydropower development.59 The state has no significant wind resources, onshore or offshore, and there is no utility-scale wind-powered generating capacity.60,61,62, Florida does not have a renewable energy portfolio standard, but it does have state and local incentives, tax credits, and loan programs for certain renewable energy technologies.63,64 The state has adopted net metering and interconnection rules for qualifying customer-sited renewable energy generating facilities.65,66 Florida utilities also have individual energy efficiency goals set by the Florida Public Service Commission.67, Florida has minor crude oil reserves and accounts for less than 0.1% of the nation's crude oil production.68,69 Onshore drilling for oil and gas in Florida began in 1901 and about 80 exploration wells were drilled in the state before oil was discovered in southwest Florida in 1943.70 Annual crude oil production in the state peaked at more than 47 million barrels in 1978 with the development of the Jay Field in the Panhandle in northwestern Florida. Headquartered in Juno Beach, Fla., FPL Groups principal subsidiaries are NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, the largest generator in North America of renewable energy from the wind and sun, and Florida Power & Light Company, which serves 4.5 million customer accounts in Florida and is one of the largest rate-regulated electric utilities in the country. The Florida peninsula extends almost 450 miles south from the Georgia border to the Florida Keys in the Gulf of Mexico and includes the southernmost point in the continental United States.1 The state's northern boundary stretches about 360 miles from the Atlantic Ocean across the Florida Panhandle to the Perdido River, the state's western boundary with Alabama.2 Known as the Sunshine State, Florida has significant solar energy potential as well as substantial biomass resources and small amounts of oil and natural gas production.3,4,5,6 The warm waters of the Gulf Stream wrap around much of the state's marine coastline and moderate Florida's climate, which ranges from tropical to subtropical.7,8 The Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean make the state one of the most humid in the nation, with frequent summer thunderstorms and occasional devastating hurricanes.

Short, timely articles with graphics on energy, facts, issues, and trends. 7 Zimmerman, Kim Ann, "What is the Gulf Stream?" More than nine-tenths of Florida's petroleum consumption occurs in the transportation sector.82 In part because of Florida's significant tourist industry and the heavy passenger and cargo traffic through its international airports, the state is among the top five petroleum-consuming states in the nation.83,84 In 2020, Florida ranked third in the nation in jet fuel consumption, and, in 2019, the state ranked third in total motor gasoline consumption as well.85,86 Even so, in part because of its large population, Florida is among the 10 states that use the least petroleum on a per capita basis.87 Florida does not require motor gasoline that is blended with ethanol, and federal requirements for cleaner-burning summer gasoline blends in the state's urban areas were lifted in 2014.88,89 However, motor gasoline blended with ethanol is widely used, and Florida is the third-largest consumer of fuel ethanol in the nation. 20 U.S. EIA, State Energy Data System, Table P3, Total Primary Energy Production and Total Energy Consumption Estimates in Trillion Btu, 2019. 109 U.S. Census Bureau, Florida, Table B25040, House Heating Fuel, 2019 American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates.
