ORDER GRANTING TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY’S
REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL CLASSIFICATION
(DOCUMENT NO, 01990-2026)
On 	April 	2, 	2026, 	pursuant 	to 	Section 	366.093, 	Florida 	Statutes 	(F.S.), and Rule 	25-
22.006, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), Tampa Electric Company (TECO) filed a Request
for Confidential 	Classification of materials contained in Exhibit No. 	(ZJP-1), Document No. 	4,
Schedule Al 2, 	Page 	1 	of 	1 	(Bates 	Stamp 	Page 	36), 	for 	the 	period 	January 	2025 	through
December 2025, attached to the testimony of Zel Jones-Phillips (Document No. 01990-2026).
Request for Confidential Classification
TECO 	contends 	that 	the 	information contained 	in 	Exhibit No. 	(ZJP-1) 	attached 	to 	the
testimony of Zel Jones-Phillips constitutes proprietary confidential business information entitled
to 	protection under 	Section 	366.093, 	F.S., and Rule 25-22.006, F.A.C. TECO 	asserts 	that 	this
information 	is 	intended 	to be and 	is 	treated by TECO 	as 	private and has 	not been 	publicly
disclosed.
The information contained in Exhibit No. (ZJP-1) 	for which confidentiality 	is requested
relates 	to 	long and 	short 	term 	capacity 	purchases 	and 	sales 	for 	the 	period 	January 	through
December 	2025. TECO 	argues 	that 	this 	information, 	if 	disclosed, would be 	harmful 	to 	its
competitive interests and 	is protected by Paragraphs 366.093(3)(d) and (e), F.S.
Ruling
Subsection 	366.093(1), 	F.S., 	provides 	that 	records 	the 	Florida 	Public 	Service
Commission (Commission) has found 	to contain proprietary business information 	shall be kept
confidential and 	shall be exempt from Chapter 	119, 	F.S. 	Subsection 	366.093(3), 	F.S., 	defines
proprietary confidential business information as information that 	is intended to be and 	is treated
by 	the company 	as 	private, 	in 	that 	disclosure 	of 	the 	information would 	cause harm 	to 	the
company’s 	ratepayers 	or 	business 	operations, 	and 	has 	not been 	voluntarily 	disclosed 	to 	the
public. 	Subsection 366.093(3), 	F.S., provides 	that proprietary confidential business information
includes, but 	is not limited to:
(d) 	Information concerning bids or other contractual data, the disclosure of which
would impair the 	efforts of the public 	utility or 	its 	affiliates 	to contract for goods
or services on favorable terms.
(e) 	Information 	relating 	to competitive 	interests, 	the 	disclosure of which would
impair the competitive business of the provider of the information.

Upon review, it appears the information and data provided in this request satisfies the
criteria set forth in Subsection 366.093(3), F.S., for classification as proprietary confidential
business information. The information regarding capacity sales and purchases for January
through December 2025 appears to be “information concerning bids or other contractual data, the
disclosure of which would impair the efforts of the public utility or its affiliates to contract for
goods or services on favorable terms” and “information relating to competitive interests, the
disclosure of which would impair the competitive business of the provider of the information.”
Thus, the information identified in Document No. 01990-2026 shall be granted confidential
classification.
Pursuant 	to 	Subsection 	366.093(4), 	F.S., 	the 	information 	for 	which 	confidential
classification is granted herein shall remain protected from disclosure for a period of up to 18
months from the date of issuance of this Order. At the conclusion of the 18-month period, the
confidential information will no longer be exempt from Subsection 119.07(1), F.S., unless TECO
or another affected person shows, and the Commission finds, that the records continue to contain
proprietary confidential business information.
Based on the foregoing, it is hereby
ORDERED by Commissioner Gary F. Clark, as Prehearing Officer, that Tampa Electric
Company’s Request for Confidential Classification of Document No. 01990-2026 is granted, as
set forth herein. It is further
ORDERED that the information in Document No. 01990-2026, for which confidential
classification has been granted, shall remain protected from disclosure for a period of up to 18
months from the date of issuance of this Order. It is further
ORDERED that this Order shall be the only notification by the Commission to the parties
of the date of declassification of the materials discussed herein.
