On its third-quarter call, NextEra Energy said it expects the three federal hub projects in Texas and Pennsylvania to generate approximately 50% of the expected adjusted earnings per share that Energy Resources would receive if it owned the projects over their first 20 years.

Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Mike Dunne said payments would be relatively modest in 2026 and 2027 and would grow through 2032, when operating fees begin.
