Description: CWEN-A Clearway Energy November 06, 2025
Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CWEN-A) is a U.S.-based clean-energy generator that runs two business lines – Flexible Generation (dispatchable, combustion-based assets) and Renewables (wind, solar, and battery storage). Its portfolio totals roughly 11.8 GW of gross capacity across 26 states, with about 9 GW in wind/solar/BESS and 2.8 GW in flexible generation that supplies grid-reliability services.
Key operational metrics (Q2-2024) show a weighted-average capacity factor of ~38 % for its renewable fleet, a 2023-24 PPA backlog of ~2.5 GW, and a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.2×, indicating moderate leverage in a capital-intensive sector. The company benefits from two macro drivers: (1) the continued shift toward decarbonization, which is expanding demand for both intermittent renewables and firm-capacity resources, and (2) the Inflation Reduction Act’s tax-credit extensions that improve project economics and support cash-flow stability.
For investors seeking deeper quantitative insight, a quick look at ValueRay’s proprietary risk-adjusted return model can help surface how Clearway’s cash-flow profile stacks up against sector peers and whether its current valuation reflects the underlying asset quality.
