Description: AQN Algonquin Power & Utilities November 05, 2025

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. (NYSE:AQN) is a multi-utility operator with regulated electric, water, wastewater, and natural-gas businesses across the United States, Canada, Bermuda and Chile. As of 31 Dec 2024 it served roughly 1.27 million customer connections – about 310 k electric, 577 k water/wastewater, and 378 k natural-gas meters.

The company’s generation platform includes ≈2.0 GW of gross capacity (≈0.3 GW net) in diversified assets, plus a hydro-electric portfolio of 14 facilities (≈115 MW gross, ≈111 MW net) located in Alberta, Ontario, New Brunswick and Quebec, which supplies both energy and renewable-attribute credits.

Key operating metrics from the most recent annual report (2023) show adjusted EBITDA of ≈$1.2 billion and a dividend yield near 5.3 %, reflecting the cash-flow stability typical of regulated utilities. Capital-expenditure guidance for 2025 targets ≈$500 million, largely directed toward renewable-energy expansion and grid-modernization – a response to the sector-wide shift toward decarbonization and to rising interest-rate pressures on debt financing.
