Jan 23 (Reuters) - NextEra Energy Partners NEP.N will
rename itself as XPLR Infrastructure with immediate effect, the
company said on Thursday.
The company said it will begin trading under a new ticker
symbol 'XFIR' on the New York Stock Exchange from Feb. 3. It
will also have a new logo and website.
NextEra Energy Partners is a limited partnership formed by
U.S. utility NextEra Energy NEE.N to acquire, manage and own
contracted energy projects.
The newly rebranded firm said it will release its
fourth-quarter financial results on Jan. 28. NextEra Energy is
set to report its results on Friday.
Prior to Thursday's announcement, the two firms used to
report financial results on the same day.
