Business Combinations [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acquisitions | Acquisitions In August 2021, an indirect subsidiary of NEP acquired from a third party 100% of the ownership interests (August 2021 acquisition) in a portfolio of four operating wind assets with a combined generating capacity totaling approximately 391 MW located in California and New Hampshire. In October 2021, an indirect subsidiary of NEP acquired from subsidiaries of NEER ownership interests (October 2021 acquisition) in a portfolio of wind and solar generation facilities with a combined net generating capacity totaling approximately 589 MW located in various states across the U.S. In December 2021, an indirect subsidiary of NEP acquired from subsidiaries of NEER 100% of the Class A membership interests in Star Moon Holdings, LLC (Star Moon Holdings) which represents an indirect 50% controlling ownership interest in seven wind generation facilities and six solar generation facilities located in various states across the U.S., some of which include solar storage, with a combined net generating capacity totaling approximately 1,260 MW and net storage capacity totaling 58 MW. The wind and solar generation facilities were under construction by NEER when the acquisition was announced. At closing, three projects remained under construction and NEER agreed to continue to manage the construction of such projects after the acquisition, at its own cost, and to contribute to those projects any capital necessary for the construction of such projects. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, construction of the projects was completed and the projects entered service. In December 2021, NEER sold the remaining 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in the wind and solar generation facilities to a third party, which is reflected as noncontrolling interests on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets (see Note 10 - Noncontrolling Interests). NEER operates the wind and solar generation facilities under O&M and administrative service agreements (see Note 9). In December 2021, an indirect subsidiary of NEP acquired from a third party a 102 MW wind generation facility (Coram II acquisition) located in California. In September 2022, an indirect subsidiary of NEP acquired from NEER interests in Sunlight Renewables Holdings, LLC (Sunlight Renewables Holdings) which represent an indirect 67% controlling ownership interest in a battery storage facility in California with storage capacity of 230 MW. The purchase price consisted of cash consideration of approximately $191 million, plus working capital and other adjustments of $3 million. The purchase price was allocated primarily to property, plant and equipment — net of approximately $435 million and noncontrolling interests of $242 million, including $147 million relating to differential membership interests, based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. NEER operates the battery storage facility under O&M and administrative service agreements (see Note 9). Supplemental Unaudited Pro forma Results of Operations NEP’s pro forma results of operations in the combined entity had the August 2021 acquisition, the October 2021 acquisition and the Coram II acquisition been completed on January 1, 2020 are as follows:
The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations include adjustments to: •reflect the historical results of the businesses acquired beginning on January 1, 2020 assuming consistent operating performance over all periods; •reflect the estimated depreciation and amortization expense based on the estimated fair value of property, plant and equipment – net and the intangible assets – PPAs; •reflect assumed interest expense related to funding the acquisitions; and •reflect related income tax effects. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had the transactions been made at the beginning of the periods presented or the future results of the consolidated operations. NEP incurred approximately $2 million in acquisition-related costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 which are reflected as operations and maintenance in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | Revenue Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. NEP's operating revenues are generated primarily from various non-affiliated parties under PPAs and natural gas transportation agreements. NEP's operating revenues from contracts with customers are partly offset by the net amortization of intangible asset – PPAs and intangible liabilities – PPAs. Revenue is recognized as energy and any related renewable energy attributes are delivered, based on rates stipulated in the respective PPAs, or natural gas transportation services are performed. NEP believes that the obligation to deliver energy and provide the natural gas transportation services is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits provided by NEP. In addition, NEP believes that the obligation to deliver renewable energy attributes is satisfied at multiple points in time, with the control of the renewable energy attribute being transferred at the same time the related energy is delivered. Included in NEP’s operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 is $232 million and $64 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is $747 million and $181 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is $190 million and $58 million, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is $530 million and $176 million, of revenue from contracts with customers for renewable energy sales and natural gas transportation services, respectively. NEP's accounts receivable are primarily associated with revenues earned from contracts with customers. Receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration and reflect the differences in timing of revenue recognition and cash collections. For substantially all of NEP's receivables, regardless of the type of revenue transaction from which the receivable originated, customer and counterparty credit risk is managed in the same manner and the terms and conditions of payment are similar. NEP recognizes revenues as energy and any related renewable energy attributes are delivered or natural gas transportation services are performed, consistent with the amounts billed to customers based on rates stipulated in the respective agreements. NEP considers the amount billed to represent the value of energy delivered or services provided to the customer. NEP’s customers typically receive bills monthly with payment due within 30 days. The contracts with customers related to pipeline service revenues contain a fixed price related to firm natural gas transportation capacity with maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2035. At September 30, 2022, NEP expects to record approximately $1.6 billion of revenues over the remaining terms of the related contracts as the capacity is provided. Revenues yet to be earned under contracts with customers to deliver energy and any related energy attributes, which have maturity dates ranging from 2025 to 2052, will vary based on the volume of energy delivered. At September 30, 2022, NEP expects to record approximately $183 million of revenues related to the fixed price components of one PPA through 2039 as the energy is delivered.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income taxes are calculated for NEP as a single taxpaying corporation for U.S. federal and state income taxes (based on NEP's election to be taxed as a corporation). NEP recognizes in income its applicable ownership share of U.S. income taxes due to the disregarded/partnership tax status of substantially all of the U.S. projects under NEP OpCo. Net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests includes minimal U.S. taxes. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately 16% and 14%, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 were approximately 6% and 10%, respectively. The effective tax rates are below the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to tax expense (benefit) attributable to noncontrolling interests of approximately $(23) million and $(126) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $(14) million and $(64) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) was signed into law which includes: (i) extensions for wind and solar tax credits on facilities that start construction before the later of 2034 or the end of the calendar year following the year in which greenhouse gas emissions from U.S. electric generation are reduced by 75% from 2022 levels; (ii) a new solar PTC and standalone battery ITC; (iii) the ability to transfer renewable energy tax credits to an unrelated transferee; and (iv) a 15% corporate profits minimum tax based on pre-tax income for years after 2022. This legislation does not require NEP to revalue its deferred income taxes given that there was no change to the corporate tax rate.

Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements | Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements Non-derivative fair value measurements consist of NEP's cash equivalents. The fair value of these financial assets is determined using the valuation techniques and inputs as described in Note 3 – Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Instruments. The fair value of money market funds that are included in cash and cash equivalents, current other assets and noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets is estimated using a market approach based on current observable market prices. Recurring Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements – NEP’s financial assets and liabilities and other fair value measurements made on a recurring basis by fair value hierarchy level are as follows:
Financial Instruments Recorded at Other than Fair Value – The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of other financial instruments recorded at other than fair value are as follows:
____________________ (a) At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately $4,636 million and $5,506 million, respectively, of the fair value is estimated using a market approach based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues (Level 2); the balance is estimated using an income approach utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, considering the current credit profile of the debtor (Level 3). At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately $1,063 million and $1,188 million, respectively, of the fair value relates to the 2020 convertible notes and the 2021 convertible notes and is estimated using Level 2.

NEP records all derivative instruments that are required to be marked to market as either assets or liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets and measures them at fair value each reporting period. NEP does not utilize hedge accounting for its derivative instruments. All changes in the derivatives' fair value are recognized in interest expense in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net notional amounts of the interest rate contracts were approximately $7.8 billion and $7.9 billion, respectively. Cash flows from the interest rate contracts are reported in cash flows from operating activities in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Instruments – The fair value of assets and liabilities are determined using either unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) or pricing inputs that are observable (Level 2) whenever that information is available and using unobservable inputs (Level 3) to estimate fair value only when relevant observable inputs are not available. NEP uses several different valuation techniques to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities, relying primarily on the market approach of using prices and other market information for identical and/or comparable assets and liabilities for those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain financial instruments may be valued using multiple inputs including discount rates, counterparty credit ratings and credit enhancements. NEP’s assessment of the significance of any particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement of those assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy levels. Non-performance risk, including the consideration of a credit valuation adjustment, is also considered in the determination of fair value for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. Transfers between fair value hierarchy levels occur at the beginning of the period in which the transfer occurred. NEP estimates the fair value of its derivative instruments using an income approach based on a discounted cash flows valuation technique utilizing the net amount of estimated future cash inflows and outflows related to the agreements. The primary inputs used in the fair value measurements include the contractual terms of the derivative agreements, current interest rates and credit profiles. The significant inputs for the resulting fair value measurement are market-observable inputs and the measurements are reported as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The tables below present NEP's gross derivative positions, based on the total fair value of each derivative instrument, at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, as required by disclosure rules, as well as the location of the net derivative positions, based on the expected timing of future payments, on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
____________________ (a) Includes the effect of the contractual ability to settle contracts under master netting arrangements. Financial Statement Impact of Derivative Instruments – Gains related to NEP's interest rate contracts are recorded in NEP's condensed consolidated financial statements as follows:
Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features – Certain of NEP's derivative instruments contain credit-related cross-default and material adverse change triggers, none of which contain requirements to maintain certain credit ratings or financial ratios. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate fair value of NEP's derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was approximately $39 million and $608 million, respectively.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities NEP has identified NEP OpCo, a limited partnership with a general partner and limited partners, as a VIE. NEP has consolidated the results of NEP OpCo and its subsidiaries because of its controlling interest in the general partner of NEP OpCo. At September 30, 2022, NEP owned an approximately 46.2% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo and NEE Equity owned a noncontrolling 53.8% limited partner interest in NEP OpCo (NEE's noncontrolling interest). The assets and liabilities of NEP OpCo as well as the operations of NEP OpCo represent substantially all of NEP's assets and liabilities and its operations. In addition, at September 30, 2022, NEP OpCo consolidated 17 VIEs related to certain subsidiaries which have sold differential membership interests in entities which own and operate 32 wind generation facilities as well as seven solar projects, including related battery storage facilities, and one battery storage facility. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of the differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, and liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses and asset retirement obligation, of the VIEs, totaled approximately $9,419 million and $537 million, respectively, at September 30, 2022 and $9,740 million and $1,310 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, NEP OpCo also consolidated five VIEs related to the sales of noncontrolling Class B interests in certain NEP subsidiaries (see Note 10 – Noncontrolling Interests) which have ownership interests in and operate wind and solar facilities with a combined net generating capacity of approximately 3,576 MW as well as ownership interests in seven natural gas pipeline assets. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of the noncontrolling Class B interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of the entities. The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, intangible assets – PPAs and investments in equity method investees, and the liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses, long-term debt, other long-term liabilities and asset retirement obligation, of the VIEs totaled approximately $10,749 million and $1,641 million, respectively, at September 30, 2022 and $11,810 million and $2,480 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021. Certain of these VIEs include five other VIEs related to NEP's ownership interests in Rosmar, Silver State, Meade, Pine Brooke Holdings and Star Moon Holdings (see Note 1). In addition, certain of these VIEs contain entities which have sold differential membership interests and approximately $4,165 million and $4,749 million of assets and $361 million and $1,159 million of liabilities are also included in the disclosure of the VIEs related to differential membership interests at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. At September 30, 2022, NEP OpCo has an investment in Sunlight Renewables Holdings which is a VIE (see Note 1). The assets, primarily property, plant and equipment – net, and the liabilities, primarily accounts payable and accrued expenses and asset retirement obligation, of the VIE totaled approximately $443 million and $8 million at September 30, 2022, respectively. This VIE contains entities which have sold differential membership interests and approximately $342 million of assets and $8 million of liabilities is included in the disclosure of VIEs related to differential membership interests at September 30, 2022 above. Certain subsidiaries of NEP OpCo have noncontrolling interests in entities accounted for under the equity method that are considered VIEs. NEP has an indirect equity method investment in three NEER solar projects with a total generating capacity of 277 MW and battery storage capacity of 230 MW. Through a series of transactions, a subsidiary of NEP issued 1,000,000 NEP OpCo Class B Units, Series 1 and 1,000,000 NEP OpCo Class B Units, Series 2, to NEER for approximately 50% of the ownership interests in the three solar projects (non-economic ownership interests). NEER, as holder of the NEP OpCo Class B Units, will retain 100% of the economic rights in the projects to which the respective Class B Units relate, including the right to all distributions paid by the project subsidiaries that own the projects to NEP OpCo. NEER has agreed to indemnify NEP against all risks relating to NEP’s ownership of the projects until NEER offers to sell economic interests to NEP and NEP accepts such offer, if NEP chooses to do so. NEER has also agreed to continue to manage the operation of the projects at its own cost, and to contribute to the projects any capital necessary for the operation of the projects, until NEER offers to sell economic interests to NEP and NEP accepts such offer. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, NEP's equity method investment related to the non-economic ownership interests of approximately $99 million and $47 million, respectively, is reflected as noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. All equity in earnings of the non-economic ownership interests is allocated to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. NEP is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate these entities because it does not control any of the ongoing activities of these entities, was not involved in the initial design of these entities and does not have a controlling interest in these entities.

Debt | Debt Significant long-term debt issuances and borrowings by subsidiaries of NEP during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were as follows:
———————————— (a)Variable rate is based on an underlying index plus a margin. (b)During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, approximately $585 million of the outstanding borrowings under this facility were repaid. At September 30, 2022, approximately $55 million of borrowings were outstanding and $118 million of letters of credit were issued under the NEP OpCo credit facility. Approximately $1 million of the outstanding borrowings have a maturity date in 2024. (c)At September 30, 2022, approximately $865 million of borrowings were outstanding under the existing credit agreement of the Meade purchaser and Pipeline Investment Holdings, LLC. In February 2022, the maturity date was extended from February 2026 to February 2027 for essentially all of the NEP OpCo credit facility. In May 2022, the NEP OpCo credit facility was amended to, among other things, increase the revolving credit facility size from $1.25 billion to $2.5 billion. In October 2022, the loan parties borrowed $90 million under the NEP OpCo credit facility. NEP OpCo and its subsidiaries' secured long-term debt agreements are secured by liens on certain assets and contain provisions which, under certain conditions, could restrict the payment of distributions or related party fee payments. At September 30, 2022, NEP and its subsidiaries were in compliance with all financial debt covenants under their financings. On January 1, 2021, NEP adopted an accounting standards update which updated the accounting guidance for financial instruments with the characteristics of liabilities and equity, including debt with conversion options and other equity-linked instruments such as the $600 million in principal amount of 2020 convertible notes. NEP adopted the standards update by applying it retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of January 1, 2021 (modified retrospective approach). Upon adoption, NEP reclassified approximately $64 million related to the embedded conversion feature for the 2020 convertible notes from common units equity to long-term debt.

Equity | Equity Distributions – On October 21, 2022, the board of directors of NEP authorized a distribution of $0.7875 per common unit payable on November 14, 2022 to its common unitholders of record on November 4, 2022. NEP anticipates that an adjustment will be made to the conversion ratio for the 2020 convertible notes under the related indenture on the ex-distribution date for such distribution, which will be computed using the last reported sale price of NEP’s units on the day before the ex-distribution date, subject to certain carryforward provisions in the indenture. Earnings Per Unit – Diluted earnings per unit is based on the weighted-average number of common units and potential common units outstanding during the period, including the dilutive effect of convertible notes. The dilutive effect of the 2021 convertible notes and the 2020 convertible notes is computed using the if-converted method. The reconciliation of NEP's basic and diluted earnings per unit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:
ATM Program – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP issued approximately 1.8 million common units under its at-the-market equity issuance program (ATM program), for net proceeds of approximately $145 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, NEP issued approximately 0.7 million common units under its ATM program for net proceeds of approximately $50 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, NEP did not issue any common units under the ATM program. Fees related to the ATM program were approximately $1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and less than $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Common Unit Issuances – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP issued 0.8 million NEP common units upon NEE Equity's exchange of NEP OpCo common units on a one-for-one basis. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, NEP recognized less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively, of other comprehensive income related to equity method investees. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, NEP recognized approximately $1 million of other comprehensive income related to equity method investees. At September 30, 2022 and 2021, NEP's accumulated other comprehensive loss totaled approximately $17 million and $19 million, respectively, of which $9 million and $11 million, respectively, was attributable to noncontrolling interest and $8 million and $8 million, respectively, was attributable to NEP.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions Each project entered into O&M agreements and ASAs with subsidiaries of NEER whereby the projects pay a certain annual fee plus actual costs incurred in connection with certain O&M and administrative services performed under these agreements. These services are reflected as operations and maintenance in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, certain NEP subsidiaries pay affiliates for transmission and retail power services which are reflected as operations and maintenance in NEP's condensed consolidated statements of income. Certain projects have also entered into various types of agreements including those related to shared facilities and transmission lines, transmission line easements, technical support and construction coordination with subsidiaries of NEER whereby certain fees or cost reimbursements are paid to, or received by, certain subsidiaries of NEER. Management Services Agreement – Under the MSA, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of NEE provides operational, management and administrative services to NEP, including managing NEP’s day-to-day affairs and providing individuals to act as NEP’s executive officers and directors, in addition to those services that are provided under the existing O&M agreements and ASAs described above between NEER subsidiaries and NEP subsidiaries. NEP OpCo pays NEE an annual management fee equal to the greater of 1% of the sum of NEP OpCo’s net income plus interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense less certain non-cash, non-recurring items for the most recently ended fiscal year and $4 million (as adjusted for inflation beginning in 2016), which is paid in quarterly installments with an additional payment each January to the extent 1% of the sum of NEP OpCo’s net income plus interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense less certain non-cash, non-recurring items for the preceding fiscal year exceeds $4 million (as adjusted for inflation beginning in 2016). NEP OpCo also makes certain payments to NEE based on the achievement by NEP OpCo of certain target quarterly distribution levels to its unitholders. NEP’s O&M expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 include approximately $43 million and $122 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 include approximately $36 million and $102 million, respectively, related to the MSA. Cash Sweep and Credit Support Agreement – NEP OpCo is a party to the CSCS agreement with NEER under which NEER and certain of its affiliates provide credit support in the form of letters of credit and guarantees to satisfy NEP’s subsidiaries’ contractual obligations. NEP OpCo pays NEER an annual credit support fee based on the level and cost of the credit support provided, payable in quarterly installments. NEP’s O&M expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 include approximately $2 million and $6 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 include approximately $1 million and $4 million, respectively, related to the CSCS agreement. NEER and certain of its affiliates may withdraw funds (Project Sweeps) from NEP OpCo under the CSCS agreement or NEP OpCo's subsidiaries in connection with certain long-term debt agreements and hold those funds in accounts belonging to NEER or its affiliates to the extent the funds are not required to pay project costs or otherwise required to be maintained by NEP's subsidiaries. NEER and its affiliates may keep the funds until the financing agreements permit distributions to be made, or, in the case of NEP OpCo, until such funds are required to make distributions or to pay expenses or other operating costs or NEP OpCo otherwise demands the return of such funds. If NEER or its affiliates fail to return withdrawn funds when required by NEP OpCo's subsidiaries’ financing agreements, the lenders will be entitled to draw on any credit support provided by NEER or its affiliates in the amount of such withdrawn funds. If NEER or one of its affiliates realizes any earnings on the withdrawn funds prior to the return of such funds, it will be permitted to retain those earnings. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the cash sweep amounts held in accounts belonging to NEER or its affiliates were approximately $65 million and $57 million, respectively, and are included in due from related parties on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Guarantees and Letters of Credit Entered into by Related Parties – Certain PPAs include requirements of the project entities to meet certain performance obligations. NEECH or NEER has provided letters of credit or guarantees for certain of these performance obligations and payment of any obligations from the transactions contemplated by the PPAs. In addition, certain financing agreements require cash and cash equivalents to be reserved for various purposes. In accordance with the terms of these financing agreements, guarantees from NEECH have been substituted in place of these cash and cash equivalents reserve requirements. Also, under certain financing agreements, indemnifications have been provided by NEECH. In addition, certain interconnection agreements and site certificates require letters of credit or a surety bond to secure certain payment or restoration obligations related to those agreements. NEECH also guarantees the Project Sweep amounts held in accounts belonging to NEER, as described above. In addition, NEECH and NEER provided guarantees associated with obligations, primarily incurred and future construction payables, associated with the December 2021 acquisition from NEER discussed in Note 1. At September 30, 2022, NEECH or NEER guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or surety bonds totaling approximately $2,513 million related to these obligations. Due to Related Parties – Noncurrent amounts due to related parties on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily represent amounts owed by certain of NEP's wind projects to NEER to refund NEER for certain transmission costs paid on behalf of the wind projects. Amounts will be paid to NEER as the wind projects receive payments from third parties for related notes receivable recorded in noncurrent other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Transportation and Fuel Management Agreements – A subsidiary of NEP assigned to a subsidiary of NEER certain gas commodity agreements in exchange for entering into transportation agreements and a fuel management agreement whereby the benefits of the gas commodity agreements (net of transportation paid to the NEP subsidiary) are passed back to the NEP subsidiary. NEP recognized revenues related to the transportation and fuel management agreements of approximately $3 million and $6 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $4 million and $39 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease in the recognized revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to higher demand and the related impact on natural gas prices during extreme winter weather experienced primarily in Texas during February 2021 (February 2021 weather event).

Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies | . Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies Restricted Cash – At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, NEP had less than $1 million and approximately $4 million, respectively, of restricted cash included in current other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is primarily related to collateral deposits from a counterparty. Restricted cash reported as current assets are recorded as such based on the anticipated use of these funds. Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment consists of the following:
Noncontrolling Interests – At September 30, 2022, noncontrolling interests on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets primarily reflects the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests (the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests in NEP Renewables II, NEP Pipelines, STX Midstream, Genesis Holdings, and NEP Renewables III owned by third parties), the differential membership interests, NEE Equity's approximately 53.8% noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo, NEER's approximately 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in Silver State and 33% noncontrolling interest in Sunlight Renewables Holdings, non-affiliated parties' 10% interest in one of the Texas pipelines and 50% interest in Star Moon Holdings and the non-economic ownership interests. The impact of the net income (loss) attributable to the differential membership interests and the Class B noncontrolling ownership interests are allocated to NEE Equity's noncontrolling ownership interest and the net income attributable to NEP based on the respective ownership percentage of NEP OpCo. Details of the activity in noncontrolling interests are below:
———————————— (a)Primarily reflects NEE Equity's noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo and NEER's noncontrolling interests in Silver State and Sunlight Renewables Holdings. (b)Represents NEP Renewables III final funding.
———————————— (a)Primarily reflects NEE Equity's noncontrolling interest in NEP OpCo and NEER's noncontrolling interest in Silver State. (b)Represents Genesis Holdings final funding. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Prior to the acquisition in December 2021 from NEER (see Note 1), differential membership interests related to certain of the acquired solar facilities were sold to third party investors. If, subject to certain contingencies, certain events occurred that delayed or prevented completion of any underlying projects, NEP could have been obligated to reacquire all or a portion of the third party investors' interests in these projects for up to approximately $204 million. Additionally, if a solar PTC was not enacted by a certain date, NEP may have been obligated to return proceeds up to approximately $117 million to the third party investors in these projects. As these potential redemptions or return of proceeds were outside of NEP’s control, the balances were classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. During the three months ending March 31, 2022, the underlying projects were completed and the redeemable noncontrolling interests amount related to the completion of the projects was reclassified to noncontrolling interests. During the three months ending September 30, 2022, legislation was enacted establishing a solar PTC, which substantially resolved the contingencies related to the return of proceeds and resulted in $93 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests being reclassified to noncontrolling interests. The remaining contingencies are expected to be resolved in the fourth quarter of 2022. Prior to paying any amounts to the third party investors related to these contingencies, NEP would receive the full amount of any such payments from a subsidiary of NEER. Reference Rate Reform – In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update which provides certain options to apply GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting as companies transition from the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. NEP’s contracts that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates mainly relate to debt and derivative instruments. The standards update was effective upon issuance and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. As agreements that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates as an interest rate benchmark are amended, NEP evaluates whether to apply the options provided by the standards update with regard to eligible contract modifications. Disposal of Pipeline – In April 2022, subsidiaries of NEP sold (the pipeline sale) to a third party all of their ownership interests in an approximately 156-mile, 16-inch pipeline that transports natural gas in Texas for total consideration of approximately $203 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Approximately $70 million of the cash proceeds from the sale were distributed to the third-party owner of Class B membership interests in STX Midstream. In connection with the sale, NEP recorded a gain of approximately $20 million ($18 million after tax) in the second quarter of 2022 and $10 million ($9 million after tax) in the third quarter of 2022 upon resolution of a contingency. Disposal of Wind Project – In June 2022, NEP received notification from the offtaker of NEP's 62 MW wind project located in Barnes County, North Dakota of its intent to exercise an option to acquire the wind project for approximately $50 million. As such, the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets related to the wind project that were classified as held for sale, which are included in current other assets on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets, were approximately $50 million at September 30, 2022 and primarily represent property, plant and equipment – net. Liabilities associated with assets held for sale, which are included in current other liabilities on NEP's condensed consolidated balance sheets, were approximately $1 million at September 30, 2022. The sale is expected to close in January of 2023.

During the three months ending March 31, 2022, the underlying projects were completed and the redeemable noncontrolling interests amount related to the completion of the projects was reclassified to noncontrolling interests. During the three months ending September 30, 2022, legislation was enacted establishing a solar PTC, which substantially resolved the contingencies related to the return of proceeds and resulted in $93 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests being reclassified to noncontrolling interests. The remaining contingencies are expected to be resolved in the fourth quarter of 2022. Prior to paying any amounts to the third party investors related to these contingencies, NEP would receive the full amount of any such payments from a subsidiary of NEER.

Reference Rate Reform | Reference Rate Reform – In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update which provides certain options to apply GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting as companies transition from the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. NEP’s contracts that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates mainly relate to debt and derivative instruments. The standards update was effective upon issuance and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. As agreements that reference LIBOR or other interbank offered rates as an interest rate benchmark are amended, NEP evaluates whether to apply the options provided by the standards update with regard to eligible contract modifications. |
