About this update from Nextera Energy, Inc.

JUNO BEACH, Fla. and RICHMOND, Va., July 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) and Dominion Energy, Inc. (NYSE: D) today filed applications seeking regulatory approval of their proposed combination with the Virginia State Corporation Commission, the North Carolina Utilities Commission, the Public Service Commission of South Carolina, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. America is entering an era of rapidly growing electricity demand that will require substantial investment in generation, transmission, distribution and grid resilience. The proposed combination is designed to preserve Dominion Energy's local strengths with NextEra Energy's added resources, balance sheet strength, supply chain expertise, construction experience and operating capabilities to help meet that demand reliably and affordably over the long term. The combined company would serve approximately 10 million customer accounts across four of the nation's fastest-growing states and be better positioned to buy, build, finance and operate the energy infrastructure customers need more efficiently. The larger platform is intended to complement, not replace, Dominion Energy's local operating model. Dominion Energy's operating companies would remain locally led, separately regulated and accountable to their state commissions, while their teams gain access to additional technology, capital and proven practices. That includes a proven track record at Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) with more than 20 years of reliably and affordably meeting growth in one of the fastest-growing states in America, with a reliability performance of more than 60% better than the national average and a typical residential bill approximately 30% below the national average.
