Data center deal structures detailed
Q&A delivered granular color on data center deals, targeting gigawatt blocks at north of $90-95/MWh with heavy fixed capacity payments—hyperscalers take gas risk, first towers late 2029 then 1GW yearly. PJM focus stays on quick 1GW uprates; East VPP launches Q2 2026, ahead of targets. Buybacks firm at $1B near-term, flexibility later versus 12-15% IRR growth hurdles—corporate financing preferred. RTC+B seen as huge untapped edge. No contradictions, just reaffirmation with timelines. Execution tone confident. Watch contract signings.

NRG Energy delivered FY2025 revenue of $30.7B, up sharply from $28.1B in 2024, driven by higher realized power prices across ERCOT (+19% y/y Houston hub), PJM (+47% West Hub), and NYISO (+69% J/NYC) amid 51% natural gas cost escalation to $3.43/MMBtu Henry Hub. Texas led with 23% generation surge to 28.7 TWh (34.8% capacity factor), fueled by Texas Generation Portfolio acquisition adding 738 MW mid-year, while East margins held despite Indian River 4 retirement; economic gross margin climbed to $8.3B despite Cottonwood lease end.
