Description: NPWR NET Power December 31, 2025
NET Power Inc. (NYSE:NPWR) is a U.S.-based energy-technology firm that commercializes the “NET Power Cycle,” a natural-gas-fired turbine that integrates oxy-combustion to capture > 99% of CO₂ emissions at the point of generation, positioning the company within the emerging low-carbon power-generation niche.
Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Durham, North Carolina, the company is classified under the GICS sub-industry “Industrial Machinery & Supplies & Components,” reflecting its focus on hardware-intensive, capital-intensive projects rather than software or services.
Key market drivers include: (1) tightening U.S. and EU carbon-pricing regimes, which raise the economic upside of carbon-capture solutions; (2) the projected 2.5%-3% annual growth in U.S. natural-gas-based electricity generation through 2030, providing a sizable addressable market; and (3) increasing investor demand for “green-hydrogen” pathways, for which the NET Power Cycle can serve as a low-carbon baseload source.
Recent performance indicators (as of Q2 2024) show the company has secured ≈ $120 million in non-dilutive project financing and is targeting a pilot plant capacity of 250 MW by 2026, a scale that would move the technology from demonstration to commercial-ready status.
Given the high capital intensity and early-stage commercial rollout, the primary risk is execution risk-specifically, the ability to meet cost-per-MW targets versus conventional combined-cycle plants, which currently average $1,000/kW.
For a deeper dive into how NET Power’s valuation compares to peers and the broader carbon-capture market, a quick look at ValueRay’s analyst toolkit can help surface the most relevant metrics.
