Through XPLR OpCo, XPLR owns, or has a partial ownership interest in, a portfolio of contracted renewable energy assets consisting of wind, solar and battery storage projects as well as a contracted natural gas pipeline. NEE has an approximately 52.5% noncontrolling interest in XPLR, primarily through its limited partner interest in XPLR OpCo, and accounts for its ownership interest in XPLR as an equity method investment. NextEra Energy Resources operates essentially all of the energy projects owned by XPLR and provides services to XPLR under various related party operations and maintenance, development and construction, administrative and management services agreements (service agreements). Under these service agreements, NextEra Energy Resources incurred approximately $363 million and $52 million of costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily in connection with wind repowering, which will be reimbursed by XPLR. NextEra Energy Resources is also party to a CSCS agreement with a subsidiary of XPLR. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the cash sweep amounts (due to XPLR and its subsidiaries) held in accounts belonging to NextEra Energy Resources or its subsidiaries were approximately $93 million and $127 million, respectively, and are included in accounts payable. Amounts due from XPLR of approximately $415 million and $159 million are included in other receivables and $132 million and $128 million are included in noncurrent other assets at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. NEECH or NextEra Energy Resources guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or surety bonds totaling approximately $1.8 billion at March 31, 2025 primarily related to obligations on behalf of XPLR's subsidiaries with maturity dates ranging from 2025 to 2063, including certain project performance obligations and obligations under financing and interconnection agreements. Payment guarantees and related contracts with respect to unconsolidated entities for which NEE or one of its subsidiaries are the guarantor are recorded on NEE’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. At March 31, 2025, approximately $58 million related to the fair value of the credit support provided under the CSCS agreement is recorded as noncurrent other liabilities on NEE's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

During 2025 and 2024, certain services, primarily engineering, construction, transportation, storage and maintenance services, were provided to subsidiaries of NEE by related parties that NEE accounts for under the equity method of accounting. Charges for these services amounted to approximately $220 million and $152 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
