Portfolio overview

FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY has been granted 61 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY at rank #5,584 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 55 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06Q (INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY [ICT] SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE, COMMERCIAL, FINANCIAL, MANAGERIAL OR SUPERVISORY PURPOSES; SYSTEMS OR METHODS SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE,). As a US Corporation, FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 57.6/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 43 grants, compared with 18 in the 2015–2019 window — a +139% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY's 18.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 55 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Florida's 61 grants land it in the top 5% by Innovation Score — but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance — Florida ranks #5,584 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in G06Q — see who else leads that technology area. G06Q leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity — not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
