How does FPL Energy calculate my energy usage?

FPL Energy calculates energy usage based on the total electrical consumption recorded by the customer's meter. This meter measures the amount of electricity consumed over a specific period, usually a month. The company utilizes advanced metering technology to capture this data accurately and efficiently. Each month, the meter records the number of kilowatt-hours used since the last reading. This information is then transmitted to FPL, either through manual reading by a technician or via automated systems for smart meters. The kilowatt-hour total is then multiplied by the applicable rates, which can vary depending on factors such as the customer's chosen plan or any applicable demand charges. In addition to the meter readings, FPL provides customers access to tools and resources on their website. These can help customers track and analyze their energy usage patterns. By examining trends in energy consumption, customers can identify potential areas for energy savings. For specific inquiries or personalized assistance, customers are encouraged to refer to the FPL website for the most current contact information or resources available.
