Description: CWEN Clearway Energy C November 06, 2025

Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CWEN) is a U.S.-based independent power producer that manages a diversified portfolio of roughly 11.8 GW of generation assets across 26 states. The portfolio is split between a Renewable segment (≈9 GW of wind, solar and battery energy storage systems) and a Flexible Generation segment (≈2.8 GW of dispatchable combustion-based plants that provide grid reliability services). The company, formerly NRG Yield, was incorporated in 2012, rebranded in August 2018, and operates as a subsidiary of Clearway Energy Group LLC.

Key recent metrics: FY 2023 adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 billion, a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.2×, and a 2024-2026 PPA backlog of about 3.5 GW, indicating strong off-take visibility. The firm benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act’s 45Q carbon-capture credit and extended Production Tax Credits, which improve the economics of both its renewable and flexible assets. A sector-wide driver is the growing demand for firm-capacity and storage to support the U.S. grid’s transition to higher renewable penetration, a trend that underpins Clearway’s hybrid strategy.
