KEYS SURPASSES 43 MEGAWATTS OF SOLAR CAPACITY, POWERING 13.5% OF LOCAL ENERGY NEEDS
The Florida Municipal Power Agency (FMPA), the wholesale power provider for Keys Energy Services (KEYS) and 15 other Florida public power utilities, recently dedicated the Whistling Duck Solar Facility on March 18 in Levy County. This marks the final phase of the Florida Municipal Solar Project (FMSP), a large-scale initiative designed to provide affordable, emissions-free electricity to customers across the state.
The Whistling Duck facility generates a total of 79.4 megawatts* (MW) of solar energy, 27 MW specifically for KEYS. This increase allows KEYS to further diversify its energy portfolio, providing a strategic hedge against the volatility of the fuel markets.
Whistling Duck is the third utility-scale solar site providing renewable energy to KEYS through its partnership with FMPA and the FMSP. The utility’s solar portfolio also includes 12.5 MW from the Rice Creek Solar Facility in Putnam County and 3.5 MW from the Harmony Solar Facility in Osceola County. Together, these three sites produce a combined 43 MW of clean energy for KEYS’ customers, approximately 13.5-percent of local power needs.
There were no up-front costs for the participating municipal electric utilities. KEYS only pays for the power they purchase, making this the first large-scale, cost-effective solar venture for FMPA and its members.
“Our customers want solar energy, but it needs to be economical,” said Lynne Tejeda, KEYS’ General Manager & CEO. “By working together with our fellow Florida public power utilities, we were able to be part of a large-scale project that enables us to provide affordable, emissions-free electricity to our customers.”
The FMSP highlights the power of collaboration in securing a stable, sustainable energy future. For more information on the project and its impact on Florida’s public power communities, visit www.FMPA.com/Solar.
*A megawatt is a unit of power equal to one million watts.

KEYS RECEIVES STATEWIDE SAFETY AWARD
Keys Energy Services (KEYS) was among 17 Florida public power utilities who recently received a Florida Municipal Electric Association (FMEA) Safety Award, which recognizes utilities’ commitment to safety. The award was presented at the Florida Lineman Competition awards banquet in Tallahassee on Saturday, March 14.
Linework is listed as one of the top 10 most dangerous jobs. In order to provide reliable power, Florida lineworkers and power crews are frequently engaged in dangerous work that can place them at risk of serious or fatal injuries, which is why public power utilities place a significant emphasis on safety and training.
“Each of these winners, including KEYS, embodies the safety culture deeply inherent in public power. Their continuous efforts throughout the year to maintain safe workplaces and cultivate a culture of safety ensure employees can work both securely and efficiently,” said Amy Zubaly, FMEA Executive Director. “We applaud these utilities for their commitment to safety.”
Florida’s public power utilities are locally owned, locally controlled and locally operated, enabling them to quickly respond to the needs of their communities. They are also among some of the most reliable power providers in the state.

FLORIDA LEGILSATION PROTECTS UTILITY WORKERS
Florida has strengthened protections for Keys Energy Services (KEYS) crews by enforcing strict assault and roadside safety laws. Together, these laws ensure the workers maintaining our critical infrastructure are protected from both physical harm and traffic hazards.
The Utility Worker Protection Act strengthens protections by enhancing criminal penalties for assault or battery against utility workers maintaining critical infrastructure. Additionally, Florida’s Move Over Act requires motorists to protect roadside crews by moving over one lane for stopped law enforcement, emergency, utility, and sanitation vehicles. If moving over is unsafe, drivers must slow to 20 mph below the posted speed limit. Compliance is mandatory and failure to do so can result in fines and license points.
"Our utility crews work in high-risk environments every day to maintain our system," said Lynne Tejeda, KEYS’ General Manager & CEO. "The Utility Worker Protection Act and the Move Over Act send a clear message, the safety of utility workers statewide is a top priority."

KEYS ENERGY SERVICES GOES TO WASHINGTON
Representatives from Keys Energy Services (KEYS) and the Utility Board traveled to Washington D.C. this week to meet with members of the United States House of Representatives and Senate and their staffers to discuss issues relevant to the public power sector and KEYS’ customers. The meetings were part of the annual American Public Power Association (APPA) Legislative Rally.
The APPA Legislative Rally allows public power utility representatives from around the country to converge on the nation’s capital to address issues confronting the public power industry. Issues discussed during the 2026 Legislative Rally included:
• FEMA Reform: Advocacy efforts focused on expediting federal fund disbursement and improving response processes based on Hurricane Irma recovery challenges. This included seeking support for the Loan Interest Payment Relief Act to allow reimbursement of interest on recovery loans and the Promoting Opportunities to Widen Electrical Resilience (POWER) Act to enable rebuilding infrastructure to modern resiliency standards.
• Maintaining Affordable and Reliable Power: Priorities discussed included addressing reliance on natural gas and urging Congress to pass permitting reform to streamline new energy projects. Additionally, public power industry members advocated for continued full funding of the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) to ensure energy remains affordable for all community members.
• Protecting Tax-Exempt Municipal Bonds: Congress was urged to maintain the tax-exempt status of municipal bonds to ensure essential infrastructure projects receive low-cost financing. Eliminating this tax exemption would increase borrowing costs and lead to significant rate hikes for utility customers.
The APPA is a collection of approximately 2,000 community-owned electric utilities, serving 55 million people across the United States and its territories.

DON’T LET POWER OUTAGES BALLOON AFTER VALENTINE’S DAY
Valentine’s Day is a popular holiday for Mylar/metallic balloon sales. Not surprisingly, it is also the same day utilities across the country experience numerous balloon-related power outages. Over the past decade Keys Energy Services’ (KEYS) customers have experienced 75 power outages directly caused by balloons.
With Valentine’s Day around the corner, KEYS reminds its customers that Mylar/metallic balloons which are allowed to drift away can strike power lines and electrical substations, potentially disrupting the lives of thousands.
KEYS recommends these safety tips for handling Mylar/metallic balloons:
• Keep Mylar/metallic balloons indoors and never release them outside.
• Secure helium-filled balloons with a weight heavy enough to prevent them from drifting away.
• Never tie a balloon to a child’s wrist. If the balloon comes in contact with electricity, the electricity could flow through the balloon to the child, which could cause serious injury or death.
• Never attach metallic streamers/string to a balloon.
• When the celebration is over, puncture the balloon in several places and dispose it to keep it safely away from power lines and electrical equipment. Partially-inflated balloons can easily become airborne.
• Do not attempt to retrieve a balloon, or any object, tangled in power lines. Instead call KEYS at (305) 295-1010 to report the problem.
“Our job is to keep the lights on and we’ll do a better job of that if we can keep Mylar/metallic balloons from contacting our lines,” said Lynne Tejeda, KEYS’ General Manager & CEO. “We ask that our customers show good judgment and never release a Mylar/metallic balloon outside,” she added.

KEYS WARNS CUSTOMERS OF LOCAL PHONE SPOOFING SCAM
Keys Energy Services' (KEYS) has once again been made aware of a local scam that is “spoofing” the utility on caller ID and targeting utility customers.
These scammers are using various tactics, such as falsely claiming customers are illegally charging their electric vehicles (EVs) or insisting that a payment is overdue. Victims are threatened with immediate service disconnection and instructed to wire money or provide credit card information over the phone. While many have successfully spotted the fraud, all customers are advised to remain vigilant as the high-pressure nature of these calls is designed to catch people off guard.
Caller ID spoofing is the practice of causing a telephone network to display a number or name on the recipient’s Caller ID display that is not that of the actual originating station. Scammers can purchase “spoofing” software on the internet and perpetrate the scam from anywhere in the world. Because of the trust people tend to have in their Caller ID system, spoofing can cause even the most alert individuals to fall prey to the scam.
“If customers are unsure of the authenticity of a call and need to verify its legitimacy, they should hang up and contact KEYS directly at (305) 295-1000,” said Lynne Tejeda, KEYS’ General Manager & CEO. She added that, “phone spoofing only works one-way, customers can be assured if they hang up and call KEYS directly, they will be speaking directly to the utility.”
