Duke Energy Corporation, Progress Energy and Florida Progress have cleared the final regulatory hurdle for a major minority investment in Florida Progress. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission determined that the transaction does not involve a transfer of control of any NRC license, satisfying the last condition to the first closing under a previously signed Investment Agreement with Peninsula Power Holdings L.P., an affiliate of Brookfield Super-Core Infrastructure Partners.
Under this agreement, the investor will provide an aggregate $6 billion to Florida Progress in exchange for newly issued membership interests, ultimately owning up to 19.7% of the company. The first closing is scheduled for March 3, 2026, when the investor will pay $2.8 billion for a 9.2% stake. Additional closings will add $200 million by December 31, 2026, $500 million by June 30, 2027, $1.5 billion by December 31, 2027, and $1 billion by June 30, 2028, completing the staged investment.
