Future Potentials
• Ocean Current Energy
– Potentially huge resource for Florida
– At least a decade from commercial viability
– FAU established as a center of excellence
– FPL monitoring and participating
• Closed Loop Biomass
– E-grass facility recently approved
– 15,000 to 18,000 acres required for 116 MW
plant
Summary
• Renewable generation critically depends upon
the availability of the resource;
• Of the resources identified (WTE, LFB,
Biomass), Florida is currently using 42.5% of the
identified potential;
• Interest in new renewable development is high,
and developers are actively bringing potentially
viable projects to the utilities; and
• Innovative technologies to expand renewable
opportunities in Florida are in development.
