PROGRESS ENERGY Complaint letter to FLA Public Service Commission

Who decided that Progress Energy should be subsidized in their efforts to capitalize off building a nuclear power plant? It is very obvious that green energy is going to be a booming market in the very near future. Companies that can come up with new technologies and the infrastructure to deliver clean energy have a very bright future.

However, they should all have to compete for their share of this market but that’s not going to happen when you have a company that will have their infrastructure paid for when public officials approve a rate hike to pre pay for a new facility.

Also, what federal subsidies and contracts will Progress Energy be well positioned for after Floridians have paid for their new facilities? I don’t think that paying for Progress Energy’s construction costs is a fair or even wise move and I protest this increase.

Your Name
