The Florida Public Service Commission approved Florida Power & Light Company's (FPL) Andytown-Oasis Transmission Lines Project, deemed necessary for maintaining electric system reliability in Miami-Dade County. The project features multiple high-voltage lines, including a 500 kV line from the Andytown substation to the Oasis substation and two 230 kV lines connecting various substations.
This decision follows FPL's petition submitted on March 11, 2026, which the FPSC evaluated to ensure cost-effectiveness and reliability. The approval is crucial for accommodating the projected load growth in South Florida, potentially reducing risks of thermal overloads and low-voltage issues.
