**PART I**

**Item 1 — Business**

**General**

Clearway Energy, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, or the Company, is a publicly-traded energy infrastructure investor with a focus on investments in clean energy and owner of modern, sustainable and long-term contracted assets across North America. The Company was formed as a Delaware corporation on December 20, 2012. The Company is sponsored by Clearway Energy Group LLC, or CEG.

The Company is one of the largest owners of clean energy generation assets in the U.S. The Company's portfolio comprises approximately 12.9 GW of gross capacity in 27 states, including approximately 10.1 GW of wind, solar and battery energy storage systems, or BESS, and approximately 2.8 GW of dispatchable combustion-based power generation assets included in the Flexible Generation segment that provide critical grid reliability services. In 2025, 98% of the Company's total generation was attributable to renewable energy and storage assets. Through this environmentally-sound, diversified and primarily contracted portfolio, the Company endeavors to provide its investors with stable and growing dividend income. The majority of the Company's revenues are derived from long-term contractual arrangements for the output or capacity from these assets. The weighted average remaining contract duration of the Company's Renewables & Storage segment offtake agreements was approximately 12 years as of December 31, 2025 based on CAFD. A complete listing of the Company's interests in operating facilities as of December 31, 2025 can be found in Item 2 — *Properties.*

The Company is the sole managing member of Clearway Energy LLC and operates and controls all of its business and affairs and consolidates the financial results of Clearway Energy LLC and its subsidiaries. Clearway Energy LLC is a holding company for the companies that directly and indirectly own and operate the Company's assets. The Company consolidates the results of Clearway Energy LLC through its controlling interest, with CEG's interest shown as noncontrolling interest in the consolidated financial statements. The holders of the Company's outstanding shares of Class A and Class C common stock are entitled to dividends as declared. CEG receives its distributions from Clearway Energy LLC through its ownership of Clearway Energy LLC Class B and Class D units. As a result of its current ownership of the Class B common stock and Class D common stock of the Company, CEG controls the Company. From time to time, CEG may also hold shares of the Company's Class A and/or Class C common stock.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company owned 58.62% of the economic interests of Clearway Energy LLC, with CEG owning 41.38% of the economic interests of Clearway Energy LLC.

The diagram below represents a summarized structure of the Company as of December 31, 2025:

![Clearway summarized org structure as of 12.31.25.jpg](cwen-20251231_g1.jpg)

**Business Strategy**

The Company's primary business strategy is to focus on the ownership of assets and growth through investments in or acquisitions of assets that generate predictable, long-term cash flows so that it can continue to grow and expand the business as well as to increase the dividends paid to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock over time.

The Company's plan for executing its business strategy includes the following key components:

***Focus on contracted renewable energy and dispatchable combustion-based generation.*** The Company owns and operates utility scale and distributed renewable energy assets, as well as BESS facilities, and dispatchable combustion-based power generation assets included in the Flexible Generation segment that provide critical grid reliability services. The assets are operated with proven technologies and have generally low operating risks and stable cash flows. The Company believes that by focusing on this core asset class and leveraging its industry knowledge, it will maximize its strategic opportunities, be a leader in operational efficiency and maximize its overall financial performance.

------

***Growing the business through investments in operating power generation assets.*** The Company believes that its base of operations provides a platform for strategic growth through cash accretive and tax advantaged investments and acquisitions complementary to its existing portfolio and investment in organic cash flow expansion of its own fleet. In addition, the Company may invest in or acquire generation facilities from third parties when it believes its knowledge of the market and operating expertise provides it with a competitive advantage, as well as consummate future investments in, or acquisitions of, assets developed by CEG. The Company believes that CEG's development expertise provides the Company access to a development platform with an extensive pipeline of potential renewable energy and BESS facilities that are aligned with the Company's growth objectives. The Company and CEG work collaboratively in considering new assets to be invested in or acquired by the Company. The assets listed below represent the Company's currently committed investments in facilities:

By focusing its efforts on North America, the Company believes it will best leverage its regional knowledge of power markets, industry relationships and skill sets to maximize its performance.

***Maintain sound financial practices to grow the dividend.*** The Company intends to maintain a commitment to disciplined financial analysis and a balanced capital structure to enable it to increase its quarterly dividend over time and serve the long-term interests of its stockholders. The Company's financial practices include a risk and credit policy focused on transacting with creditworthy counterparties; a financing policy, which focuses on seeking an optimal capital structure through various capital formation alternatives to minimize interest rate and refinancing risks, ensure stable long-term dividends and maximize value; and a dividend policy that is based on distributing a significant portion of CAFD each quarter that the Company receives from Clearway Energy LLC, subject to available capital, market conditions and compliance with associated laws, regulations and other contractual obligations.

**Competition**

Power generation is a capital-intensive business with numerous and diverse industry participants. The Company competes based on the location of its plants, as well as the contract price and terms of individual facilities. Within the power industry, the Company competes with a wide variety of companies with different capabilities, resources and business models, depending on the market. The Company's competitors for energy supply include utilities and independent power producers. The Company also competes to acquire new facilities with renewable developers who retain ownership of their renewable power plants, independent power producers, financial investors and other downstream power infrastructure owners. Competitive conditions may be substantially affected by capital market conditions and by various forms of energy-related legislation and regulation considered by federal, state and local legislatures and administrative agencies, including tax policy. Such laws and regulations, or changes thereto, may substantially increase the costs of acquiring, constructing and operating facilities, and it could be difficult for the Company to adapt to and operate under such laws and regulations.

------

**Competitive Strengths**

***Stable, high quality cash flows.*** The Company's facilities have a stable, predictable cash flow profile consisting of long-life electric generation assets that primarily sell electricity under long-term fixed priced contracts or pursuant to regulated rates with investment-grade and certain other creditworthy counterparties. The majority of the Company's facilities have minimal fuel risk, as the Renewables & Storage facilities have no fuel costs, however, the Company's merchant assets included in the Flexible Generation segment need to procure their own fuel. The offtake agreements within the Company's Renewables & Storage segment have a weighted-average remaining duration, based on CAFD, of approximately 12 years as of December 31, 2025, which contributes to long-term cash flow stability. The Company's offtake agreements with counterparties for whom credit ratings are available have a weighted-average Moody's rating of Baa1 based on rated capacity under contract. Additionally, because all of the Company's assets are located in the U.S., they are not exposed to currency or repatriation risks.

***Environmentally well-positioned portfolio of assets.*** The Company's portfolio includes approximately 10.1 gross GW of installed wind, solar and BESS assets that are predominantly non-emitting sources of power generation. Additionally, the Company's assets within the Flexible Generation segment that are located in California consist of efficient gas generation facilities that support electric system reliability. The Company does not expect to incur any significant capital expenditures in the foreseeable future to comply with current environmental regulations applicable to its generation assets. Taken as a whole, the Company believes it will be a net beneficiary of growing energy demand and market support for the types of assets that the Company operates and acquires.

***High quality, long-lived assets with low operating and capital requirements.*** The Company benefits from a portfolio of relatively newer assets. The Company's assets are largely comprised of proven and reliable technologies, provided by leading original wind, solar and BESS equipment manufacturers. Given the nature of the portfolio, which includes a substantial number of wind, solar and BESS facilities, with relatively low operating and maintenance costs, the Company expects to maintain high fleet availability and expend modest maintenance-related capital expenditures.

***Significant scale and diversity.*** The Company's portfolio comprises approximately 12.9 GW of gross capacity in 27 states, including approximately 10.1 GW of wind, solar and BESS and approximately 2.8 GW of dispatchable combustion-based power generation providing critical grid reliability services. The Company's contracted assets included in the Renewables & Storage and Flexible Generation segments benefit from significant diversification in terms of technology, fuel type, counterparty and geography. The Company believes its scale and access to best practices across the fleet improves its business development opportunities through enhanced industry relationships, reputation and understanding of regional power market dynamics. Furthermore, the Company's diversification reduces its operating risk profile and reliance on any single market.

***Relationship with CEG as sponsor.*** The Company believes that its relationship with CEG provides significant benefits given CEG's highly capable renewable development and operations platform that is aligned to support the Company's growth. CEG has strong capabilities in capital formation, power origination, procurement, construction, business development, asset management, operations and maintenance and related commercial functions, all of which help to safeguard and optimize the value of the Company's business and operating fleet.

**Policy Incentives**

U.S. federal, state and local governments have established various policy incentives to support the development, financing, ownership and operation of renewable energy facilities. These incentives include PTCs, ITCs, accelerated tax depreciation, cash grants, tax abatements and RPS programs which have the effect of decreasing the costs and risks associated with developing and operating such facilities or creating demand for renewable energy assets. In particular,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Owners of wind facilities are eligible to claim the PTC, or an ITC in lieu of the PTC, provided that certain requirements are met. Similarly, owners of solar facilities are eligible to claim the ITC or, for facilities placed in service after August 16, 2022, either the ITC or, in lieu thereof, a PTC, provided certain requirements are met. Additionally, owners of BESS facilities are eligible to claim the ITC for facilities placed in service after December 31, 2022, provided certain requirements are met. The PTC is an annual credit that is based on the amount of electricity sold by the facility during the first ten years after the facility is first placed in service. The ITC is a one-time credit that is based on a percentage of the cost of the facility and is claimed for the tax year in which the facility is first placed in service. Depending on the type of taxpayer, the PTC or ITC may be sold to an unrelated third party for cash. In order to qualify for the full amount of these credits in the case of facilities whose construction began on or after January 28, 2023, certain prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements generally must be satisfied. For facilities that begin construction after December 31, 2024, the PTC and ITC will no longer apply and such facilities may instead be eligible for the clean electricity production credit or clean electricity investment credit, respectively. In order to qualify for these new credits, the facility's GHG emissions cannot be greater than zero. Moreover, pursuant to legislation enacted July 4, 2025, wind and solar facilities that begin construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 in order to qualify for these credits and the percentage of components in the facility manufactured by foreign entities of concern cannot exceed a specified percentage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Pursuant to the U.S. federal Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System, or MACRS, wind, solar and BESS facilities have generally been depreciable for tax purposes over a five-year period (before applying certain conventions), even though the useful life of such facilities is generally much longer than five years. However, pursuant to federal tax legislation enacted on July 4, 2025, in certain cases, facilities as to which construction begins after 2024 will no longer be depreciable over a five-year period; instead, their cost will be recovered over a seven-year period. Under the same legislation, immediate 100% expensing is also permanently available for such property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• RPS programs, currently in place in certain states and territories, require electricity providers in the state or territory to meet a certain percentage of their retail sales with energy from renewable sources. Additionally, other states in the U.S. have set renewable energy goals to reduce GHG emissions from historic levels. The Company believes that these standards and goals will create incremental demand for renewable energy in the future.

The elimination of, loss of, reduction in, or the addition of stricter eligibility requirements for the business tax credits and incentives discussed above could decrease the attractiveness of renewable energy facilities to developers, including, but not limited to, CEG, which could reduce the Company's acquisition or development opportunities. Such an elimination, loss or reduction could also reduce the Company's willingness to pursue or develop certain renewable energy facilities due to higher operating costs or decreased revenues under its PPAs. However, these changes (i) are not anticipated to have an adverse impact on the anticipated pipeline of facilities that are being developed by the Company's sponsor, CEG, through at least 2030 and (ii) did not impact the operation of facilities owned by the Company.

------

**Regulatory Matters**

As owners of power plants and participants in wholesale energy markets, certain of the Company's subsidiaries are subject to regulation by various federal and state government agencies. These agencies include FERC and the PUCT, as well as other public utility commissions in certain states where the Company's assets are located. Each of the Company's U.S. generating facilities qualifies as an EWG or QF. In addition, the Company is subject to the market rules, procedures and protocols of the various ISO and RTO markets in which it participates. Likewise, certain of the Company's subsidiaries must also comply with the mandatory reliability requirements imposed by NERC and the regional reliability entities in the regions where the Company has generating facilities subject to NERC's reliability authority. The Company's operations within the ERCOT footprint are not subject to rate regulation by FERC, as they are deemed to operate solely within the ERCOT market and not in interstate commerce. These operations are subject to regulation by PUCT. Similarly, the Company's operations within Hawaii are not subject to rate regulation by FERC, as they are deemed to operate solely within the State of Hawaii and not in interstate commerce.

***FERC***

FERC, among other things, regulates the transmission and the wholesale sale of electricity in interstate commerce under the authority of the FPA. The transmission and sale of electric energy occurring wholly within ERCOT and Hawaii is not subject to FERC's jurisdiction. Under existing regulations, FERC has the authority to determine whether an entity owning a generation facility is an EWG, as defined in the PUHCA. FERC also has the authority to determine whether a generation facility meets the applicable criteria of a QF under the PURPA. Each of the Company's U.S. generating facilities qualifies as either an EWG or QF.

The FPA gives FERC exclusive rate-making jurisdiction over the wholesale sale of electricity and transmission of electricity in interstate commerce of public utilities (as defined by the FPA). Under the FPA, FERC, with certain exceptions, regulates owners and operators of facilities used for the wholesale sale of electricity or transmission in interstate commerce as public utilities, and is charged with ensuring that market rules are just and reasonable.

Public utilities are required to obtain FERC's acceptance, pursuant to Section 205 of the FPA, of their rate schedules for the wholesale sale of electricity. Several of the Company's QF generating facilities and all of the Company's non-QF generating facilities located in the U.S. outside of ERCOT and Hawaii make sales of electricity pursuant to market-based rates, as opposed to traditional cost-of-service regulated rates. FERC conducts a review of the market-based rates of Company public utilities and potential market power every three years according to a regional schedule established by FERC.

In accordance with the Energy Policy Act of 2005, FERC has approved the NERC as the national Energy Reliability Organization, or ERO. As the ERO, NERC is responsible for the development and enforcement of mandatory reliability standards for the wholesale electric power system, with such authority delegated in part to regional reliability entities charged with enforcement of mandatory reliability standards for the region which they are responsible for overseeing.

The PURPA was passed in 1978 in large part to promote increased energy efficiency and development of independent power producers. The PURPA created QFs to further both goals, and FERC is primarily charged with administering the PURPA as it applies to QFs. QFs are exempt from certain regulations under the FPA.

The PUHCA provides FERC with certain authority over and access to books and records of public utility holding companies and companies within the public utility holding company systems. The Company is not required to comply with the accounting, record retention and reporting requirements promulgated by FERC pursuant to the PUHCA.

**Environmental Matters**

The Company is subject to a wide range of environmental laws during the development, construction, ownership and operation of facilities. These existing and future laws generally require that governmental permits and approvals be obtained before construction and maintained during operation of facilities. The Company is obligated to comply with all environmental laws and regulations applicable within each jurisdiction and required to implement environmental programs and procedures to monitor and control risks associated with the construction, operation and decommissioning of regulated or permitted energy assets. Federal, state and local environmental laws have historically become more stringent over time, although this trend has recently shifted at the federal level. To the extent that proposed legislation and new or revised regulations restrict or otherwise impact the Company's operations, the proposed legislation and regulations could have a negative impact on the Company's financial performance.

------

*EPA GHG Rulemaking and Proposals* — In March 2025, a Joint Resolution of Disapproval under the Congressional Review Act was signed which prohibited the EPA's November 2024 Waste Emissions Charge rules from taking effect. Federal tax legislation enacted on July 4, 2025 postponed the EPA's imposition of the Waste Emissions Charge to 2034. On July 29, 2025, the EPA issued an interim final rule extending several compliance deadlines associated with the strict new methane rules for the oil and gas industry that were published in March 2024 and took effect in May 2024. In December 2025, the EPA issued a final rule extending these compliance deadlines associated with its 2024 methane rules. On September 16, 2025, the EPA announced a proposal to end the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program for all sectors except petroleum and natural gas systems (excluding reporting for natural gas distribution). Reporting for petroleum and natural gas systems under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program would be deferred until 2034 under the proposal. On February 12, 2026, the EPA announced the repeal of its 2009 "Endangerment Finding" under the Clean Air Act, which found that GHGs endanger the public health and welfare of current and future generations and emissions of GHGs from motor vehicles contribute to GHG pollution. The Endangerment Finding formed the EPA's legal authority to regulate GHG emissions from motor vehicles, but the repeal calls into question the EPA's authority to regulate GHGs not just from motor vehicles, but from all regulated sources, as well as the EPA's prior scientific assessment of climate change risks. Litigation regarding the repeal is anticipated and it is unclear how the repeal will impact the EPA's regulation of GHG emissions generally going forward. The move away from the federal regulation of GHGs and the repeal of the Endangerment Finding mark a significant shift in federal climate policy.

*Changes to NEPA* — In February 2025, the White House Council on Environmental Quality, or CEQ, sent NEPA Implementation Guidance to the heads of federal department and agencies to expedite and simplify the permitting process pursuant to Executive Order 14154, "Unleashing American Energy." In the same month, CEQ issued an interim final rule removing its regulations implementing NEPA from the Code of Federal Regulations, which rule was finalized in January 2026. On May 29, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision in *Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, Colorado* limiting the scope of upstream and downstream effects agencies must consider in NEPA reviews and clarifying that courts must afford agencies "substantial judicial deference" in NEPA cases. In July 2025, federal tax legislation added Section 112 to NEPA, which provides for expedited environmental reviews for a fee under NEPA, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, FERC and the Departments of Energy, Interior, Transportation, Agriculture and Defense released updates to their regulations and procedures implementing NEPA to speed up permitting and streamline environmental reviews.

*Federal Endangered Species Act Legislation and Regulations* — In November 2025, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed four rules, two of which were jointly issued with the National Marine Fisheries Service, which amend the federal Endangered Species Act, or ESA, regulations. The proposed rules revise the prior administration's 2024 regulations under the ESA and revert to the 2019 and 2020 regulations regarding listing, delisting and critical habitat determinations, pursuant to Executive Order 14154, "Unleashing American Energy," and the U.S. Department of Interior Secretary's Order 3418 (implementing EO 14154).

*Federal Eagle Incidental Take Permit Rule* — On September 30, 2022, FWS published in the Federal Register a draft rule revising the eagle incidental take permit program. Comments on the revised rule continued to be accepted during 2023. The final eagle incidental take permit rule was published in the Federal Register on February 12, 2024, and became effective on April 13, 2024. The final rule provided expedited eagle take permitting and a lower cost pathway to permit issuance for many wind facilities but not all. Facility-specific permits will still be required for some facilities. In August 2025, DOI began auditing the eagle take permit program and eagle take permits for wind projects issued prior to January 2025 as part of the DOI's implementation of Executive Order 14315 "Ending Market Distorting Subsidies for Unreliable, Foreign-Controlled Energy Sources" and DOI's memorandum "Ensuring Compliance with the Bald and Gold Eagle Protection Act and Executive Order 14315."

*Federal MBTA Incidental Take Legislation and Regulations* — On April 11, 2025, citing executive order "Unleashing American Energy," the U.S. Department of the Interior, or DOI, issued a legal opinion repealing opinion M-37065, which was issued during the prior administration and specified that the MBTA prohibits both intentional and incidental take of migratory birds, and restoring opinion M-37050, which was issued during the first Trump administration and specifies that only intentional take of migratory birds is prohibited. On July 29, 2025, DOI announced a policy measure to review whether avian mortality rates associated with the development of wind energy facilities located in migratory flight paths qualify as "incidental" takings of birds under the MBTA and related laws, and to determine the appropriate approach to permitting these activities, identifying violations of the applicable statutes and related penalties.

------

*California Climate Disclosure Laws* — In September 2023, the California State Assembly passed landmark climate disclosure laws (SB 253 and SB 261, as amended by SB 219). These laws require large companies "doing business in California" to provide annual reporting of Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions to the state (SB 253) and the biennial disclosure of climate-related financial risks and mitigation (SB 261). The initial reporting of Scope 1 and 2 emissions under SB 253 is due August 10, 2026, and the reporting of Scope 3 emissions is set to begin in 2027. The biennial disclosure under SB 261 was originally due on January 1, 2026, however, on November 18, 2025, enforcement of SB 261 was stayed due to a preliminary injunction from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Litigation regarding both laws remains ongoing. The Company has prepared to comply with these new state requirements.

*Local California Air District Rules* — Air districts, including the San Diego Air Pollution Control District, have recently proposed and/or updated new source review permitting requirements, including to incorporate public notice requirements as well as updates to programs addressing toxic air contaminants. Rulemaking in the Los Angeles Air Basin, as regulated by South Coast Air Quality Management District, or SCAQMD, continues to update command-and-control regulations that limit NOx emissions for stationary sources in preparation for sunsetting SCAQMD's Regional Clean Air Market, or RECLAIM, cap and trade program in the next few years. The Company's facilities in the Flexible Generation segment meet the district's existing and proposed amendments to command-and-control regulations. Proposed updates to local California Air District Rules are not expected to affect the operations nor compliance of the Company's facilities.

**Customers**

The Company sells its electricity and environmental attributes, including RECs, primarily to customers located across 27 states under contractual arrangements. The Company's customer base includes 38 local utilities and 26 commercial and industrial customers delivered through its utility-scale generation fleet, as well as thousands of additional customers for products delivered from its distributed solar fleet. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's largest customers as a percentage of consolidated revenue were SCE and PG&E, which represented approximately 22% and 16%, respectively, with the next five largest customers representing a total of approximately 26% of consolidated revenue.

**Human Capital**

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company effected a reorganization pursuant to which all of the employees of the Company transferred to CEG. As a result, the Company does not have employees of its own and instead depends solely on the services provided by or under the direction of CEG under the CEG Master Services Agreement to carry out its operations. The Company directly bears all labor costs for certain employees of CEG who perform work on behalf of the Company. The Company also depends upon personnel of CEG for the provision of asset management, administration and O&M services.

In addition to the personnel of CEG, the Company relies on other third-party service providers in the daily operations of its facilities in the Flexible Generation segment, as well as certain renewable facilities.

The Company, together with CEG, focuses on attracting, developing and retaining a team of highly talented and motivated employees. CEG seeks to attract and retain employees with industry experience and relevant skills to support operations, which in certain areas requires specific professional or technical skills and experience. CEG's programs to attract and recruit qualified candidates focus on identifying qualified candidates from a variety of backgrounds with the requisite skills and experience to bring value to the Company. CEG regularly conducts assessments of its compensation and benefit practices and pay levels to help ensure that staff members are compensated equitably and competitively. CEG devotes extensive resources to staff development and training, including tuition assistance for career-enhancing academic and professional programs. CEG utilizes various programs for developing and retaining employees that focus on employee engagement and belonging, as well as continuing education. Employee performance is measured in part based on goals that are aligned with the Company's annual objectives.

CEG is committed to maintaining a workplace that acknowledges, encourages and values its employees as individuals. The Company and CEG believe that individual differences, experiences, and strengths enrich a company's culture and help it better understand the needs of its customers and the communities in which it operates.

**Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)**

The Company is committed to engaging with its stakeholders on environmental, social and governance, or ESG, matters in a proactive, holistic and integrated manner. The Company strives to provide recent, credible and comparable data to investors around ESG issues and to comply with ESG disclosure requirements. The Company's Board of Directors reviews developing trends and emerging ESG matters as well as the Company's strategies, activities, policies and communications regarding ESG matters, and reviews and considers potential actions the Company could take regarding ESG matters.

------

Aligned with the Company's strategy of owning and acquiring environmentally-sound assets, in 2025, approximately 91% of the Company's total operating revenues were not tied to the dispatch of power generation emitting GHGs. This non-GHG emitting operating revenue included renewable energy generation and grid reliability services in the Company's Renewables & Storage segment and grid reliability services in the Flexible Generation segment at the El Segundo, Marsh Landing and Walnut Creek facilities. Excluding the Carlsbad facility, which is currently under a long-term tolling agreement whereby the Company does not control the dispatch of the facility, in 2025, approximately 97% of the Company's total operating revenues were not tied to the dispatch of power generation emitting GHGs.

Also in 2025, 98% of the Company's total generation was attributable to renewable energy and storage assets. The Company has also issued $2,725 million of corporate green bonds under a green bond framework that applies the net proceeds to finance or refinance, in part or in full, new and existing facilities and assets meeting certain criteria focused on the supply of energy from renewable resources, including solar energy and wind energy, which includes the 2034 Senior Notes that were issued on January 13, 2026, as further described in Item 15 — Note 10, *Long-term Debt*.

**Available Information**

The Company's annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act are available free of charge through the SEC's website, www.sec.gov, and through the "Investor Relations" section of the Company's website, *www.clearwayenergy.com*, as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. The Company also routinely posts press releases, presentations, webcasts, and other information regarding the Company on its website. The information posted on the Company's website is not a part of this report.

**Item 1A — Risk Factors**

**Summary of Risk Factors**

The Company's business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, discussed in more detail in the following section. These risks include, among others, the following key risks:

**Risks Related to the Company's Business**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's ability to grow and make investments or acquisitions through cash on hand is limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company may not be able to effectively identify or consummate any future investments or acquisitions on favorable terms, or at all, and future investments or acquisitions may not be accretive as a result of incorrect assumptions in the Company's evaluation of such investments or acquisitions, unforeseen consequences or other external events beyond the Company's control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Counterparties to the Company's offtake agreements may not fulfill their obligations and, as the contracts expire or terminate, the Company may not be able to replace them with agreements on similar terms, or at all.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's ability to effectively consummate future investments or acquisitions will also depend on the Company's ability to arrange the required or desired financing for such transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's indebtedness could adversely affect its ability to raise additional capital to fund the Company's operations or pay dividends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The operation of electric generation facilities depends on suitable meteorological conditions and involves significant risks and hazards customary to the power industry that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. These facilities may operate without long-term power sales agreements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintenance, expansion and refurbishment of electric generation facilities involve significant risks that could result in unplanned power outages or reduced output.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Supplier concentration at certain of the Company's facilities and the inability of suppliers to meet their obligations may expose the Company to significant financial credit or performance risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company currently owns, and in the future may acquire, certain assets in which the Company has limited control over management decisions and its interests in such assets may be subject to transfer or other related restrictions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company is exposed to risks inherent in the use of interest rate swaps and energy-related financial instruments. The Company may be exposed to additional risks in the future if it utilizes other derivative instruments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company does not own all of the land on which its facilities are located, which could result in disruption to its operations. The Company's use and enjoyment of real property rights for its facilities may be adversely affected by the rights of lienholders and leaseholders that are superior to those of the grantors of those real property rights to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's businesses are subject to physical, market and economic risks relating to potential effects of climate change and public and governmental initiatives to address climate change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Risks that are beyond the Company's control, including but not limited to acts of terrorism or related acts of war, natural disasters, severe weather, changes in weather patterns, flooding, wildfires, pandemics, inflation, supply chain disruptions, hostile cyber intrusions or other catastrophic events, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The operation of the Company's businesses is subject to cyber-based security and integrity risk.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company relies on electric distribution and transmission facilities that it does not own or control and that are subject to transmission constraints within a number of the Company's regions. If these facilities fail to provide the Company with adequate transmission capacity, it may be restricted in its ability to deliver electric power to its customers and may either incur additional costs or forego revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's costs, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely impacted by the disruption of the fuel supplies necessary to generate power at its facilities in the Flexible Generation segment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company depends on key personnel and its and CEG's ability to attract and retain additional skilled management and other personnel, the loss of any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company may potentially be adversely affected by emerging technologies that may over time impact capacity markets and the energy industry overall.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company has identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) accounting that, if not properly remediated, could adversely affect its business and results of operations.

------

**Risks Related to the Company's Relationship with CEG**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CEG exercises substantial influence over the Company, and the Company is highly dependent on CEG.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CEG controls the Company and has the ability to designate a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company may not be able to consummate future acquisitions from CEG.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company may be unable to terminate the CEG Master Services Agreement, in certain circumstances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If CEG terminates the CEG Master Services Agreement or defaults in the performance of its obligations under the agreement, the Company may be unable to contract with a substitute service provider on similar terms, or at all.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company is a "controlled company", controlled by CEG, and as a result, is exempt from certain corporate governance requirements that are designed to provide protection to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.

**Risks Related to Regulation**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** The Company's business is subject to restrictions resulting from environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The electric generation business is subject to substantial governmental regulation, including environmental laws, and may be adversely affected by changes in laws or regulations, as well as liability under, or any future inability to comply with, existing or future regulations or other legal requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. laws and regulations regarding privacy and data protection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Government regulations providing incentives for renewable power generation and battery energy storage could change at any time and such changes may negatively impact the Company's growth strategy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in U.S. foreign trade policies may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operations and financial condition.

**Risks Related to the Company's Common Stock**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company may not be able to continue paying comparable or growing cash dividends to holders of its common stock in the future. The Company is a holding company and its primary asset is its interest in Clearway Energy LLC, and the Company is accordingly dependent upon distributions from Clearway Energy LLC and its subsidiaries to pay dividends and taxes and other expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Market interest rates may have an effect on the value of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Market volatility and reports by securities and industry analysts may affect the price of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock, and the future issuance of additional shares of common stock or sales of common stock by CEG may cause dilution of investors' ownership interest or cause the price of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock to fall.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provisions of the Company's charter documents or Delaware law could delay or prevent an acquisition of the Company, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock, and could make it more difficult to change management.

**Risks Related to Taxation**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's future tax liability may be greater than expected if the Company does not generate NOLs sufficient to offset taxable income, if federal, state and local tax authorities challenge certain of the Company's tax positions and exemptions or if changes in federal, state and local tax laws occur. The Company may incur contractual obligations from the indemnification of third parties if tax authorities challenge the amount or availability of ITCs, PTCs or related tax benefits that the Company is obligated to provide to such third parties under such contractual arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's ability to use NOLs to offset future income may be limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A valuation allowance may be required for the Company's deferred tax assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Distributions to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock may be taxable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in tax laws or policies, including but not limited to changes in corporate income tax rates, as well as judgments and estimates used in the determination of tax-related asset and liability amounts, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's ability to comply with tax laws and policies may depend on its contractual arrangements and information provided by third parties and may require significant resources.

**Risks Related to the Company's Business**

***Pursuant to the Company's cash dividend policy, the Company intends to distribute a significant amount of the CAFD through regular quarterly distributions and dividends, and the Company's ability to grow and make investments and acquisitions through cash on hand is limited.***

The Company expects to distribute a significant amount of the CAFD each quarter and to rely primarily upon external financing sources, including the issuance of debt and equity securities and, if applicable, borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility to fund investments, acquisitions and growth capital expenditures. The Company may be precluded from pursuing otherwise attractive investments or acquisitions if the projected short-term cash flow from the investment or acquisition is not adequate to service the capital raised to fund the investment or acquisition, after giving effect to the Company's available cash reserves. To the extent the Company issues additional equity securities in connection with any investments, acquisitions or growth capital expenditures, the payment of dividends on these additional equity securities may increase the risk that the Company will be unable to maintain or increase its per share dividend. The incurrence of bank borrowings or other debt by Clearway Energy Operating LLC or by the Company's operating subsidiaries to finance the Company's growth strategy will result in increased interest expense and the imposition of additional or more restrictive covenants, which, in turn, may impact the cash distributions the Company receives to distribute to holders of the Company's common stock.

***The Company may not be able to effectively identify or consummate any future investments or acquisitions on favorable terms, or at all, and future investments or acquisitions may not be accretive as a result of incorrect assumptions in the Company's evaluation of such investments or acquisitions, unforeseen consequences or other external events beyond the Company's control.***

The Company's business strategy includes growth through investments in, and acquisitions of, additional generation assets (including through corporate acquisitions). This strategy depends on the Company's ability to successfully identify and evaluate investment and acquisition opportunities and consummate investments and acquisitions on favorable terms. However, the number of investment and acquisition opportunities is limited. In addition, the Company will compete with other companies for these limited investment and acquisition opportunities, which may increase the Company's cost of making investments or acquisitions or cause the Company to refrain from making investments or acquisitions at all. Some of the Company's competitors for investments and acquisitions are much larger than the Company with substantially greater financial or human resources. These companies may be able to pay more for investments or acquisitions and may be able to identify, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of assets than the Company's financial or human resources permit. If the Company is unable to identify and consummate future investments or acquisitions, its ability to execute its growth strategy and increase the amount of dividends paid to holders of the Company's common stock may be limited.

The Company's ability to invest in or acquire future renewable facilities may also depend on the financial viability of renewable energy assets generally. The financial viability of these assets may, from time to time, be impacted by public policy mechanisms, including PTCs, ITCs, cash grants, loan guarantees, accelerated depreciation, RPS and carbon trading plans. These mechanisms have been implemented at the state and federal levels to support the development and ongoing viability of renewable generation, demand-side and smart grid and other clean infrastructure technologies. The availability and continuation of public policy support mechanisms will drive a significant part of the economics and viability of the Company's growth strategy and expansion into clean energy investments.

The investment in, or acquisition of, companies and assets are subject to substantial risks, including the failure to identify material problems during due diligence (for which the Company may not be indemnified post-closing) and the risk of overpaying for assets (or not making investments or acquisitions on an accretive basis). The integration and consolidation of acquisitions requires substantial human, financial and other resources and, ultimately, the Company's acquisitions may divert management's attention from the Company's existing business operations, disrupt the Company's ongoing business or not be successfully integrated. There can be no assurances that any future investments or acquisitions will perform as expected or that the returns from such investments or acquisitions will support the financing utilized to invest in, acquire or maintain them. A failure to achieve the financial returns the Company expects when it invests in or acquires generation assets could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to grow its business and make cash distributions to its stockholders. Any failure of the Company's acquired generation assets to be accretive or difficulty in integrating such acquisition into the Company's business could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to grow its business and make cash distributions to its stockholders. As a result, the consummation of acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to pay dividends to holders of the Company's common stock.

------

***Counterparties to the Company's offtake agreements may not fulfill their obligations and, as the contracts expire or terminate, the Company may not be able to replace them with agreements on similar terms, or at all.***

The majority of the electric power the Company generates within the Renewables & Storage segment is sold under long-term offtake agreements with public utilities or industrial or commercial end-users, with a weighted average remaining duration, based on CAFD, of approximately 12 years. As of December 31, 2025, the largest customers of the Company's power generation and BESS assets, including assets in which the Company has less than a 100% membership interest, were SCE and PG&E, which represented 22% and 16%, respectively, of total consolidated revenues generated by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2025.

If, for any reason, any of the purchasers of power under these agreements are unable or unwilling to fulfill their related contractual obligations or if they refuse to accept delivery of power delivered thereunder or if they otherwise terminate such agreements prior to the expiration thereof, the Company's assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, to the extent any of the Company's power purchasers are, or are controlled by, governmental entities, the Company's facilities may be subject to legislative or other political action that may impair their contractual performance.

The power generation industry is characterized by intense competition and the Company's electric generation assets encounter competition from utilities, industrial companies and independent power producers, in particular with respect to uncontracted output. In recent years, increasing competition among generators for offtake agreements has contributed to variability in electricity prices in certain markets. As a result, when an existing offtake agreement expires or is terminated, the Company may not be able to secure a replacement agreement on comparable terms and conditions, and the pricing under any such replacement agreement may vary significantly from the expired or terminated agreement, potentially impacting the profitability of the related facility. In addition, the Company's competitors may be able to respond more quickly to evolving standards or customer requirements or adopt more advanced technology that reduces their production costs, resulting in their ability to compete for, or secure favorable terms in, offtake agreement renewals. If the Company is unable to replace an expiring or terminated offtake agreement, the affected facility may temporarily or permanently cease operations. External events, such as a severe economic downturn or force majeure events, could also impair the ability of some counterparties to the Company's offtake agreements and other customer agreements to pay for energy and/or other products and services received.

The Company's inability to enter into new or replacement offtake agreements or to compete successfully against current and future competitors in the markets in which the Company operates could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The Company's ability to effectively consummate future investments or acquisitions will also depend on the Company's ability to arrange the required or desired financing for such transactions.***

The Company may not have sufficient credit availability under the Company's financing arrangements or have access to facility-level financing on commercially reasonable terms when investment or acquisition opportunities arise. An inability to obtain the necessary or desired financing could significantly limit the Company's ability to consummate future investments or acquisitions and effectuate the Company's growth strategy. If financing is available, utilization of the Company's credit available under its financing arrangements or facility-level financing for all or a portion of the purchase price of an investment or acquisition could significantly increase the Company's interest expense, impose additional or more restrictive covenants and reduce CAFD. Similarly, the Company's issuance of additional equity securities as consideration for investments or acquisitions could cause significant stockholder dilution and reduce the Company's per share dividends, particularly if the investments or acquisitions are not sufficiently accretive. The Company's ability to consummate future investments or acquisitions may also depend on the Company's ability to obtain any required regulatory approvals or other third-party approvals for such investments or acquisitions.

***The Company's indebtedness could adversely affect its ability to raise additional capital to fund the Company's operations or pay dividends. It could also expose the Company to the risk of increased interest rates and limit the Company's ability to react to changes in the economy or the Company's industry as well as impact the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $8,674 million of total consolidated indebtedness, $6,188 million of which was incurred by the Company's non-guarantor subsidiaries. In addition, the Company's share of its unconsolidated affiliates' total indebtedness and letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2025 totaled approximately $259 million and $42 million, respectively (calculated as the Company's unconsolidated affiliates' total indebtedness as of such date multiplied by the Company's percentage membership interest in such assets).

------

The Company's substantial debt could have important negative consequences on the Company's financial condition, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increasing the Company's vulnerability to general economic and industry conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• requiring a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on the Company's indebtedness, therefore reducing the Company's ability to pay dividends to holders of the Company's capital stock (including the Class A and Class C common stock) or to use the Company's cash flow to fund its operations, capital expenditures and future business opportunities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limiting the Company's ability to enter into long-term power sales or fuel purchases which require credit support;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limiting the Company's ability to fund operations or future investments or acquisitions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• restricting the Company's ability to make certain distributions with respect to the Company's capital stock (including the Class A and Class C common stock) and the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to make certain distributions to it, in light of restricted payment and other financial covenants in the Company's credit facilities and other financing agreements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposing the Company to the risk of increased interest rates because certain of the Company's borrowings, which may include borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility, are at variable rates of interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limiting the Company's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital including collateral postings, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, investments, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limiting the Company's ability to adjust to changing market conditions and placing it at a competitive disadvantage compared to the Company's competitors who have less debt.

The Company's revolving credit facility contains financial and other restrictive covenants that limit the Company's ability to return capital to stockholders or otherwise engage in activities that may be in the Company's long-term best interests. The Company's inability to satisfy certain financial covenants could prevent the Company from paying cash dividends, and the Company's failure to comply with those and other covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, may entitle the related lenders to demand repayment or enforce their security interests, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, failure to comply with such covenants may entitle the related lenders to demand repayment and accelerate all such indebtedness.

The agreements governing the Company's facility-level financing contain financial and other restrictive covenants that limit the Company's operating subsidiaries' ability to make distributions to the Company or otherwise engage in activities that may be in the Company's long-term best interests. The facility-level financing agreements generally prohibit distributions from the operating subsidiaries to the Company unless certain specific conditions are met, including the satisfaction of certain financial ratios. The Company's inability to satisfy certain financial covenants may prevent cash distributions by the particular operating subsidiary to it, and the Company's failure to comply with those and other covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, may entitle the related lenders to demand repayment or enforce their security interests, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, failure to comply with such covenants may entitle the related lenders to demand repayment and accelerate all such indebtedness. If the Company is unable to make distributions from the Company's operating subsidiaries, it would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to pay dividends to holders of the Company's common stock.

Letter of credit facilities to support contractual obligations of operating subsidiaries generally have a limited term that may require future renewal, at which time the Company or relevant operating subsidiary will need to satisfy applicable financial ratios and covenants. If the Company is unable to renew the Company's letters of credit as expected or replace them with letters of credit under different facilities on favorable terms or at all, the Company may experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Furthermore, such inability may constitute a default under certain facility-level financing arrangements, restrict the ability of the operating subsidiary to make distributions to it and/or reduce the amount of cash available at such subsidiary to make distributions to the Company.

------

In addition, the Company's ability to arrange financing, either at the corporate level or at a non-recourse operating subsidiary, and the costs of such capital, are dependent on numerous factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general economic and capital market conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• credit availability from banks and other financial institutions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investor confidence in the Company and CEG, the Company's sole managing member and its principal stockholder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investor confidence in the regional wholesale power markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Company's financial performance and the financial performance of the Company subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Company's level of indebtedness and compliance with covenants in debt agreements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• maintenance of acceptable credit ratings or credit quality;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• cash flow; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provisions of tax and securities laws that may impact raising capital.

The Company may not be successful in obtaining additional capital for these or other reasons. Furthermore, the Company may be unable to refinance or replace facility-level financing arrangements or other credit facilities on favorable terms or at all upon the expiration or termination thereof. The Company's failure, or the failure of any of the Company's facilities, to obtain additional capital or enter into new or replacement financing arrangements when due may constitute a default under such existing indebtedness and may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***Certain of the Company's long-term bilateral contracts result from state-mandated procurements and could be declared invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction.***

A portion of the Company's revenues are derived from long-term bilateral contracts with utilities that are regulated by their respective states and have been entered into pursuant to certain state programs. Certain long-term contracts that other companies have with state-regulated utilities have been challenged in federal court and have been declared unconstitutional on the grounds that the rate for energy and capacity established by the contracts impermissibly conflicts with the rate for energy and capacity established by FERC pursuant to the FPA. If certain of the Company's state-mandated agreements with utilities are ever held to be invalid or unenforceable due to the financial conditions or other conditions of such utility, the Company may be unable to replace such contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The generation of electric energy from solar and wind energy sources depends heavily on suitable meteorological conditions.***

If solar or wind conditions are unfavorable, the Company's electricity generation and revenue from renewable generation facilities may be substantially below the Company's expectations. The electricity produced and revenues generated by a solar or wind energy generation facility is highly dependent on suitable solar or wind conditions, as applicable, and associated weather conditions, which are beyond the Company's control. Disruption in the generation of solar or wind energy could limit a facility's ability to generate electricity at its desired level. Should a generation facility fail to perform at the required levels, or other unplanned disruptions occur, the facility may be forced to fulfill an underlying contractual obligation by purchasing electricity at higher prices. In addition, the Company's facilities may be exposed, based on specific contractual terms, to a locational basis risk resulting from a difference in the price received for generation sold at the location where the power is generated and the price paid for generation purchased at the contracted delivery point, which could lead to potential lower revenues in circumstances where the price received is lower than the price that is paid. Furthermore, components of the Company's systems, such as solar panels and inverters, could be damaged by severe weather, such as wildfires, hailstorms, lightning, tornadoes, floods or freezing temperatures and other winter weather conditions. Unfavorable weather and atmospheric conditions could impair the effectiveness of the Company's assets or reduce their output beneath their rated capacity or require shutdown of key equipment, impeding operation of the Company's renewable energy assets. For example, in February 2021, many electricity generating assets, including the Company's wind facilities in Texas, were unable to operate and experienced outages for a few days as a result of the extreme winter weather conditions. In addition, climate change may have the long-term effect of changing wind patterns at the Company's facilities. Changing wind patterns could cause changes in expected electricity generation. These events could also degrade equipment or components and the interconnection and transmission facilities' lives or maintenance costs.

------

Although the Company bases its investment decisions with respect to each renewable generation facility on the findings of related wind and solar studies conducted on-site prior to construction or based on historical conditions at existing facilities, actual climatic conditions at a facility site, particularly wind conditions, may not conform to the findings of these studies and may be affected by variations in weather patterns, including any potential impact of climate change. Therefore, the Company's solar and wind energy facilities may not meet anticipated production levels or the rated capacity of the Company's generation assets, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***Operation of electric generation facilities involves significant risks and hazards customary to the power industry that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.***

The ongoing operation of the Company's facilities involves risks that include the breakdown or failure of equipment or processes or performance below expected levels of output or efficiency due to wear and tear, latent defect, design error, operator error or force majeure events, among other things. The Company's facilities are subject to the risks inherent with power generation facilities, including, but not limited to, degradation of equipment in excess of the Company's expectations, system failures and outages, which could impair the ability of the facilities to meet the Company's performance expectations. In addition, replacement and spare parts for key components may be difficult or costly to acquire or may be unavailable. Operation of the Company's facilities also involves risks that the Company will be unable to transport its products to its customers in an efficient manner due to a lack of transmission capacity. Unplanned outages of generating units, including extensions of scheduled outages due to mechanical failures or other problems, occur from time to time and are an inherent risk of the business. Unplanned outages typically increase operation and maintenance expenses, capital expenditures and may reduce revenues as a result of selling fewer MWh or require the Company to incur significant costs as a result of obtaining substitute RA or replacement power from third parties in the open market to satisfy forward power sales obligations. The Company's inability to operate its electric generation assets efficiently, manage capital expenditures and costs and generate earnings and cash flow from the Company's asset-based businesses could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While the Company maintains insurance, obtains warranties from vendors and obligates contractors to meet certain performance levels, the proceeds of such insurance, warranties or performance guarantees may not cover the Company's lost revenues, increased expenses or liquidated damages payments should it experience equipment breakdown or non-performance by contractors or vendors. Additionally, the proceeds of any such insurance, warranties or performance guarantees may not be received in a timely manner. The Company maintains an amount of insurance protection that it considers adequate but cannot provide any assurance that the Company's insurance will be sufficient or effective under all circumstances and against all hazards or liabilities to which the Company may be subject. Furthermore, the Company's insurance coverage is subject to deductibles, caps, exclusions and other limitations. A loss for which the Company is not fully insured (which may include a significant judgment against any facility or facility operator) could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Further, securing adequate insurance coverage has become more difficult in recent years, and due to rising insurance costs and changes in the insurance markets, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its insurance coverage will continue to be available at all or at rates or on terms similar to those presently available. Any losses not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Power generation involves hazardous activities, including acquiring, transporting and unloading fuel, operating large pieces of rotating equipment and delivering electricity to transmission and distribution systems. In addition to natural risks such as earthquakes, floods, lightning, hurricanes, wildfires and strong wind, other hazards, such as fire, explosion, structural collapse and machinery failure are inherent risks in the Company's operations. These and other hazards can cause significant personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property, plant and equipment and contamination of, or damage to, the environment and suspension of operations. To the extent an event was not covered by insurance policies, such incidents could subject the Company to substantial liabilities arising from emergency response, environmental cleanup and restoration costs, claims made by neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury and property damage, and fines or penalties for any related violations of environmental laws or regulations.

***The Company's facilities may operate, wholly or partially, without long-term power sales agreements.***

The Company's facilities may operate without long-term power sales agreements for some or all of their generating capacity and output and therefore be exposed to market fluctuations. Without the benefit of long-term power sales agreements for the facilities, the Company cannot be sure that it will be able to sell any or all of the power generated by the facilities at economic rates or that the facilities will be able to operate profitably. This could lead to less predictable revenues, future impairments of the Company's property, plant and equipment or to the closing of certain of its facilities, resulting in economic losses and liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

------

***Maintenance, expansion and refurbishment of electric generation facilities involve significant risks that could result in unplanned power outages or reduced output.***

The Company's facilities may require periodic upgrading and improvement. Any unexpected operational or mechanical failure, including failure associated with breakdowns and forced outages, could reduce the Company's facilities' generating capacity below expected levels, reducing the Company's revenues and jeopardizing the Company's ability to pay dividends to holders of its common stock at expected levels or at all. Degradation of the performance of the Company's solar facilities above levels provided for in the related offtake agreements may also reduce the Company's revenues. Unanticipated capital expenditures associated with maintaining, upgrading or repairing the Company's facilities may also reduce profitability.

If the Company makes any major modifications to its facilities in the Flexible Generation segment, it may be required to install the best available control technology or to achieve the lowest achievable emission rates as such terms are defined under the new source review provisions of the Clean Air Act in the future. Any such modifications could result in substantial additional capital expenditures. The Company may also choose to repower, refurbish or upgrade its facilities based on its assessment that such activity will provide adequate financial returns. Such facilities require time for development and capital expenditures before commencement of commercial operations, and key assumptions underpinning a decision to make such an investment may prove incorrect, including assumptions regarding construction costs, timing, available financing and future fuel and power prices. These events could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***Supplier concentration at certain of the Company's facilities and the inability of suppliers to meet their obligations may expose the Company to significant financial credit or performance risks.***

The Company often relies on a single contracted supplier or a small number of suppliers for the provision of fuel, transportation of fuel, equipment, technology and/or other services required for the operation of certain facilities. In addition, certain of the Company's suppliers provide long-term warranties with respect to the performance of their products or services. If any of these suppliers cannot perform under their agreements with the Company, or satisfy their related warranty obligations, the Company will need to utilize the marketplace to provide or repair these products and services. There can be no assurance that the marketplace can provide these products and services as, when and where required. The Company may not be able to enter into replacement agreements on favorable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to enter into replacement agreements to provide for fuel, equipment, technology and other required services, it would seek to purchase the related goods or services at market prices, exposing the Company to market price volatility and the risk that fuel and transportation may not be available during certain periods at any price. The Company may also be required to make significant capital contributions to remove, replace or redesign equipment that cannot be supported or maintained by replacement suppliers, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, credit support terms and cash flows.

The failure of any supplier to fulfill its contractual obligations to the Company could have a material adverse effect on its financial results. Consequently, the financial performance of the Company's facilities is dependent on the credit quality of, and continued performance by, the Company's suppliers and vendors.

***The Company currently owns, and in the future may acquire, certain assets in which the Company has limited control over management decisions and its interests in such assets may be subject to transfer or other related restrictions.***

As described in Item 15 — Note 5, *Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method and Variable Interest Entities*, the Company has limited control over the management and operation of certain of its assets, because the Company does not beneficially own all of the membership interests in such assets. The Company may seek to acquire additional assets in which it owns less than all of the related membership interests in the future. In these investments, the Company will seek to exert a degree of influence with respect to the management and operation of assets in which it owns less than all of the membership interests by negotiating to obtain positions on management committees or to receive certain limited governance rights, such as rights to veto significant actions. However, the Company may not always succeed in such negotiations. The Company may be dependent on its co-venturers to operate such assets. The Company's co-venturers may not have the level of experience, technical expertise, human resources management and other attributes necessary to operate these assets optimally. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise in the future between the Company and its stockholders, on the one hand, and the Company's co-venturers, on the other hand, where the Company's co-venturers' business interests are inconsistent with the interests of the Company and its stockholders. Further, disagreements or disputes between the Company and its co-venturers could result in litigation, which could increase expenses and potentially limit the time and effort the Company's officers and directors are able to devote to the business.

------

The approval of co-venturers may also be required for the Company to receive distributions of funds from assets or to sell, pledge, transfer, assign or otherwise convey its interest in such assets, or for the Company to acquire CEG's interests in such co-ventures as an initial matter. Alternatively, the Company's co-venturers may have rights of first refusal or rights of first offer in the event of a proposed sale or transfer of the Company's interests in such assets. These restrictions may limit the price or interest level for interests in such assets, in the event the Company wants to sell such interests.

Furthermore, certain of the Company's facilities are operated by third-party operators. To the extent that third-party operators do not fulfill their obligations to manage operations of the facilities or are not effective in doing so, the amount of CAFD may be adversely affected.

***The Company is exposed to risks inherent in the use of interest rate swaps and energy-related financial instruments. The Company may be exposed to additional risks in the future if it utilizes other derivative instruments.***

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk and uses energy-related financial instruments to manage variability in earnings due to fluctuations in market prices. As a result, changes in the underlying assumptions or use of alternative valuation methods could affect the reported fair value of these contracts. If the values of these financial contracts change in a manner that the Company does not anticipate, or if a counterparty fails to perform under a contract, it could harm the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The Company does not own all of the land on which its facilities are located, which could result in disruption to its operations.***

The Company does not own all of the land on which its facilities are located, and the Company is, therefore, subject to the possibility of less desirable terms and increased costs to retain necessary land use if it does not have valid leases or rights-of-way or if such rights-of-way lapse or terminate. Although the Company has obtained rights to construct and operate these assets pursuant to related lease arrangements, the rights to conduct those activities are subject to certain exceptions, including the term of the lease arrangement. The Company is also at risk of condemnation on land it owns. The loss of these rights, through the Company's inability to renew right-of-way contracts, condemnation or otherwise, may adversely affect the Company's ability to operate its assets.

***The Company's use and enjoyment of real property rights for its facilities may be adversely affected by the rights of lienholders and leaseholders that are superior to those of the grantors of those real property rights to the Company.***

Generation facilities generally are, and are likely to be, located on land occupied by the facility pursuant to long-term easements and leases. The ownership interests in the land subject to these easements and leases may be subject to mortgages securing loans or other liens (such as tax liens) and other easement and lease rights of third parties (such as leases of oil or mineral rights) that were created prior to the facility's easements and leases. As a result, the facility's rights under these easements or leases may be subject, and subordinate, to the rights of those third parties. The Company performs title searches and obtains title insurance to protect itself against these risks. Such measures may, however, be inadequate to protect the Company against all risk of loss of its rights to use the land on which the wind facilities are located, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The Company's businesses are subject to physical, market and economic risks relating to potential effects of climate change and public and governmental initiatives to address climate change.***

Climate change creates uncertainty in weather and other environmental conditions, including temperature and precipitation levels, and thus may affect consumer demand for electricity. For example, deviations from normal weather may reduce demand or availability of electricity and gas distribution services. In addition, the potential physical effects of climate change, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, cloud coverage, precipitation, floods, wildfires and other climatic events, could disrupt the Company's operations and supply chain, and cause them to incur significant costs in preparing for or responding to these effects. These or other meteorological changes could lead to increased operating costs, capital expenses or power purchase costs.

Furthermore, governmental, scientific and public concern over the threat of climate change arising from GHG emissions may limit the Company's access to natural gas or decrease demand for energy generated by the Company's assets in the Flexible Generation segment. State, national and foreign governments and agencies continue to evaluate, and in some instances adopt, climate-related legislation and other regulatory initiatives that would restrict GHG emissions. Changes in environmental requirements related to GHG, climate change and alternative energy sources may impact demand for the Company's services.

***Risks that are beyond the Company's control, including but not limited to acts of terrorism or related acts of war, natural disasters, severe weather, changes in weather patterns, flooding, wildfires, pandemics, inflation, supply chain disruptions, hostile cyber intrusions or other catastrophic events, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.***

The Company's generation facilities that were acquired or those that the Company otherwise acquires or constructs and the facilities of third parties on which they rely may be targets of terrorist activities, as well as events occurring in response to or in connection with them, that could cause environmental repercussions and/or result in full or partial disruption of the facilities ability to generate, transmit, transport or distribute electricity or natural gas. Strategic targets, such as energy-related facilities, may be at greater risk of future terrorist activities than other domestic targets. Inflation, disruption in global and domestic supply chains, and other economic conditions could negatively impact the Company's business in a manner that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Hostile cyber intrusions, including those targeting information systems as well as electronic control systems used at the generating plants and for the related distribution systems, could severely disrupt business operations and result in loss of service to customers, as well as create significant expense to repair security breaches or system damage.

Furthermore, certain of the Company's assets are located in active earthquake zones in California and Arizona, and certain facilities and suppliers conduct their operations in the same region or in other locations that are susceptible to natural disasters. In addition, California and some of the locations where certain suppliers are located, from time to time, have experienced shortages of water, electric power and natural gas. Catastrophic events, such as an earthquake, wildfire, drought, flood, pandemics or localized extended outages of critical utilities or transportation systems, or any critical resource shortages, affecting the Company or its suppliers, could cause a significant interruption in the business, damage or destroy the Company's facilities or those of its suppliers or the manufacturing equipment or inventory of the Company's suppliers. The Company relies on a limited number of highly skilled personnel for some of its operations, as well as certain independent contractors and other service providers. If a large proportion of the Company's or CEG's personnel in those critical positions, or independent contractors or other service providers to the Company or its customers, were to be negatively impacted by a catastrophic event at the same time, the Company would rely upon its business continuity plans in an effort to continue operations at its facilities, but there is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the adverse impact to its operations that could result from shortages of highly skilled personnel, independent contractors or service providers. Any such terrorist acts, environmental repercussions or disruptions or natural disasters could result in a significant decrease in revenues or significant reconstruction or remediation costs, beyond what could be recovered through insurance policies, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The operation of the Company's businesses is subject to cyber-based security and integrity risk.***

Numerous functions affecting the efficient operation of the Company's businesses depend on the secure and reliable storage, processing and communication of electronic data and the use of sophisticated computer hardware and software systems. The operation of the Company's generating assets relies on cyber-based technologies and has been the target of disruptive actions. In addition, the Company is dependent upon the computer systems of third-party providers to process certain data necessary to conduct its business, including sensitive employee information, credit card transaction information and other sensitive data.

From time to time, the Company engages a range of third parties as a part of its cybersecurity risk management. While such engagements are aimed at bolstering the effectiveness of the Company's risk management processes, they introduce inherent risks and complexities that warrant careful consideration. Any oversight or failure on the part of these third parties could compromise the security of the Company's sensitive data, proprietary information and critical business processes, leading to potential data breaches or unauthorized access. Additionally, the reliance on external entities introduces complexities in coordinating risk management efforts, data sharing and maintaining confidentiality. Any mismanagement or inadequate coordination between the Company's internal teams and third-party vendors could result in delays in responding to cybersecurity threats or gaps in its risk mitigation strategies. In addition, while the Company and its third-party service providers commit resources to the design, implementation and monitoring of the Company's computer systems, there is no guarantee that these security measures will provide absolute security. Despite these security measures, the Company may not be able to anticipate, detect or prevent cyberattacks, particularly because the methodologies used by attackers change frequently or may not be recognized until launch, and because attackers are increasingly using technologies designed to circumvent controls and avoid detection.

------

Potential disruptive actions could result from cyberspace breaches, ransomware or other malware, phishing or social engineering schemes or attacks or other cybersecurity threats, attacks or intrusions, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, or otherwise be compromised by unintentional events with respect to the Company or any of its contractors or customers. If the Company or any of its third-party providers' systems for protecting against such cybersecurity threats prove to be insufficient, current or planned business operations could be interrupted, property could be damaged and confidential, proprietary or other sensitive information, including employee, customer or supplier information, could be lost, stolen or corrupted, which may cause the Company to incur significant losses of revenues, other substantial liabilities and damages, costs to replace or repair damaged equipment and damage to the Company's reputation. The Company's insurance may not fully protect it against such losses, and costs for insurance may also increase as a result of cybersecurity threats. In addition, the Company may experience increased capital and operating costs to implement increased security for its cyber systems and generating assets.

In addition, cyberattacks against the Company or others in its industry could result in additional regulations, which could lead to increased regulatory compliance costs, insurance coverage cost or capital expenditures. Any failure by the Company to comply with these additional regulations could subject it to regulatory investigations or litigation and could result in significant penalties and liability. The Company cannot predict the potential impact to its business or the energy industry resulting from such additional regulations.

***The Company relies on electric distribution and transmission facilities that it does not own or control and that are subject to transmission constraints within a number of the Company's regions. If these facilities fail to provide the Company with adequate transmission capacity, it may be restricted in its ability to deliver electric power to its customers and may either incur additional costs or forego revenues.***

The Company depends on electric distribution and transmission facilities owned and operated by others to deliver the wholesale power it will sell from its electric generation assets to its customers. A failure or delay in the operation or development of these facilities or a significant increase in the cost of the development of such facilities could result in lost revenues. Such failures or delays could limit the amount of power the Company's operating facilities deliver or delay the completion of the Company's facilities under construction. Additionally, such failures, delays or increased costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. If a region's power transmission infrastructure is inadequate, the Company's recovery of wholesale costs and profits may be limited. If restrictive transmission price regulation is imposed, the transmission companies may not have a sufficient incentive to invest in expansion of transmission infrastructure. The Company also cannot predict whether distribution or transmission facilities will be expanded in specific markets to accommodate competitive access to those markets. In addition, certain of the Company's operating facilities' generation of electricity may be curtailed without compensation due to transmission limitations or limitations on the electricity grid's ability to accommodate intermittent and other electricity generating sources, reducing the Company's revenues and impairing its ability to capitalize fully on a particular facility's generating potential. Such curtailments could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Furthermore, economic congestion on transmission networks in certain of the markets in which the Company operates may occur and the Company may be deemed responsible for congestion costs. If the Company were liable for such congestion costs, its financial results could be adversely affected.

***The Company's costs, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely impacted by the disruption of the fuel supplies necessary to generate power at its facilities in the Flexible Generation segment.***

Delivery of fuel supplies to the Company's facilities in the Flexible Generation segment is dependent upon the infrastructure (including natural gas pipelines) available to serve each such generation facility as well as upon the continuing financial viability of contractual counterparties. As a result, the Company is subject to the risks of disruptions or curtailments in the production of power at these generation facilities if a counterparty fails to perform or if there is a disruption in the fuel delivery infrastructure.

------

***The Company depends on key personnel and its and CEG's ability to attract and retain additional skilled management and other personnel, the loss of any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.***

The Company does not have employees of its own and instead depends solely on the services provided by or under the direction of CEG under the CEG Master Services Agreement to carry out its operations. The Company therefore believes its current operations and future success depend largely on the continued services of key personnel employed by CEG, including those individuals who provide management, operational, technical and other services to the Company under the CEG Master Services Agreement. The expertise, industry knowledge and experience of these individuals are critical to the Company's ability to operate its business, execute its growth strategy and maintain effective internal controls and compliance. Although the Company currently has access to the resources of CEG, the loss of one or more key personnel of the Company or CEG, or the inability of the Company or CEG to attract, retain or adequately replace qualified individuals in a timely manner, could disrupt the Company's operations, delay or impair the execution of its business plans and negatively impact its relationships with customers, suppliers and other third parties. In addition, because CEG personnel and support staff that provide services to the Company under the CEG Master Services Agreement are not solely responsible for the management and administration of the Company, and the CEG Master Services Agreement does not require any specific individuals to be provided by CEG, there can be no assurance that the Company will have continued access to the same level of expertise or attention from CEG personnel in the future. Any significant reduction in the quality or quantity of services provided by CEG personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The Company may potentially be adversely affected by emerging technologies that may over time impact capacity markets and the energy industry overall.***

Research and development activities are ongoing in the Company's industry to provide alternative and more efficient technologies to produce power, including wind, photovoltaic (solar) cells, hydrogen, energy storage, and improvements in traditional technologies and equipment, such as more efficient gas turbines. Advances in these or other technologies could reduce the costs of power production to a level below what the Company has currently forecasted, which could adversely affect its cash flows, results of operations or competitive position.

Some emerging technologies, such as distributed renewable energy technologies, broad consumer adoption of electric vehicles and energy storage devices, could affect the price of energy. These emerging technologies may affect the financial viability of utility counterparties and could have significant impacts on market prices, which could ultimately have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The Company has identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) accounting that, if not properly remediated, could adversely affect its business and results of operations.***

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As described in Item 9A, *Controls and Procedures*, during the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company's management identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting due to ineffective controls over the review of certain calculations of HLBV accounting used to allocate net income (loss) to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity partnerships.

Although the Company is in the process of remediating the material weakness and believes, based on its evaluation to date, that the material weakness will be remediated in a timely fashion, it cannot provide assurance that this will occur within a specific timeframe. The material weakness will not be remediated until all necessary internal controls have been tested and determined to be operating effectively. In addition, the Company may need to take additional measures to address the material weakness or modify the planned remediation steps, and the Company cannot be certain that the measures it has taken, and expect to take, to improve its internal controls will be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that its internal controls are effective or to ensure that the identified material weakness will not result in a material misstatement of the Company's consolidated financial statements. Moreover, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will not identify additional material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting in the future.

------

Implementing any further changes to the Company's internal controls may distract its officers and employees and entail material costs to implement new processes and/or modify its existing processes. Moreover, until the Company successfully remediates the material weakness, its ability to record, process and report financial information accurately, and to prepare financial statements within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, could be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of the Company's common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in the Company's reported financial information, impair the Company's ability to access the capital markets on acceptable terms and generally materially and adversely impact the Company's business and financial condition.

**Risks Related to the Company's Relationships with CEG**

***CEG exercises substantial influence over the Company, and the Company is highly dependent on CEG.***

CEG owns all of the Company's outstanding Class B and Class D common stock. The Company's outstanding Class B and Class D common stock is entitled to one vote per share and 1/100th of a vote per share, respectively. As a result of its ownership of the Class B and Class D common stock, CEG owns 54.89% of the combined voting power of the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2025.

As a result of this ownership, CEG has substantial influence on the Company's affairs and CEG's voting power will constitute a large percentage of any quorum of the Company's stockholders voting on any matter requiring the approval of the Company's stockholders. Such matters include the election of directors, the adoption of amendments to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation and fourth amended and restated bylaws and approval of mergers or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company or discouraging others from making tender offers for the Company's shares. In addition, CEG has the right to elect all of the Company's directors. CEG may cause corporate actions to be taken that do not fully align with the interests of the Company's other stockholders (including holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock).

Furthermore, effective January 1, 2025, the Company effected a reorganization pursuant to which all of the employees of the Company transferred to CEG. As a result, the Company does not have employees of its own and instead depends solely on the services provided by or under the direction of CEG under the CEG Master Services Agreement to carry out its operations. CEG personnel and support staff that provide services to the Company under the CEG Master Services Agreement are not solely responsible for the management and administration of the Company, and the CEG Master Services Agreement does not require any specific individuals to be provided by CEG. Under the CEG Master Services Agreement, CEG has the discretion to determine which of its employees perform assignments required to be provided to the Company. Any failure to effectively manage the Company's processes related to internal controls over financial reporting, operations or to implement its strategy could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The CEG Master Services Agreement will continue in perpetuity, until terminated in accordance with its terms.

The Company also depends upon CEG and third parties for the provision of management, administration, O&M and certain other services at certain of the Company's facilities. Any failure by CEG or third parties to perform its requirements under these arrangements or the failure by the Company to identify and contract with replacement service providers, if required, could adversely affect the operation of the Company's facilities and have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***CEG controls the Company and has the ability to designate a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors.***

Due to CEG's approximate 54.89% combined voting power in the Company, the ability of other holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock to exercise control over the corporate governance of the Company is limited. CEG has a substantial influence on the Company's affairs and CEG's voting power constitutes a large percentage of any quorum of the Company's stockholders voting on any matter requiring the approval of the Company's stockholders. It is possible that the interests of CEG and its affiliates may in certain circumstances differ from the interests of the Company or other holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.

------

***The Company may not be able to consummate future acquisitions from CEG.***

The Company's ability to grow through acquisitions depends, in part, on CEG's ability to identify and present the Company with acquisition opportunities. There are a number of factors that could materially and adversely impact the extent to which suitable acquisition opportunities are made available from CEG. For example, due to factors inside or outside the Company's control, CEG may be unable to develop or construct facilities that are ultimately compatible with the Company's operational requirements or that otherwise result in suitable acquisition opportunities for the Company, or CEG may not be able to develop facilities that provide cash flows that would support the Company's investment requirements due to numerous factors impacting the economics of the facilities, including negotiation of engineering, procurement and construction and offtake contracts, as well as securing long-term financing for the facilities.

***The Company may be unable to terminate the CEG Master Services Agreement, in certain circumstances.***

The CEG Master Services Agreement provides that the Company may terminate the agreement upon 30 days prior written notice to CEG upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) CEG defaults in the performance or observance of any material term, condition or covenant contained therein in a manner that results in material harm to the Company and the default continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof is given to CEG; (ii) CEG engages in any act of fraud, misappropriation of funds or embezzlement that results in material harm to the Company; (iii) CEG is grossly negligent in the performance of its duties under the agreement and such gross negligence results in material harm to the Company; or (iv) upon the happening of certain events relating to the bankruptcy or insolvency of CEG. Furthermore, if the Company requests an amendment to the scope of services provided by CEG under the CEG Master Services Agreement and is not able to agree with CEG as to a change to the service fee resulting from a change in the scope of services within 90 days of the request, the Company will be able to terminate the agreement upon 30 days prior notice to CEG. The Company will not be able to terminate the agreement for any other reason, including if CEG experiences a change of control, and the agreement continues in perpetuity, until terminated in accordance with its terms. If CEG's performance does not meet the expectations of investors, and the Company is unable to terminate the CEG Master Services Agreement, the market price of the Class A and Class C common stock could suffer.

***If CEG terminates the CEG Master Services Agreement or defaults in the performance of its obligations under the agreement, the Company may be unable to contract with a substitute service provider on similar terms, or at all.***

The Company relies on CEG to provide certain services under the CEG Master Services Agreement, including the provision of information technology services. The CEG Master Services Agreement provides that CEG may terminate the agreement upon 180 days prior written notice of termination to the Company (i) if the Company defaults in the performance or observance of any material term, condition or covenant contained in the agreement in a manner that results in material harm to CEG and the default continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after written notice of the breach is given; or (ii) upon the happening of certain events relating to the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. If CEG terminates the CEG Master Services Agreement or defaults in the performance of its obligations under the agreement, the Company may be unable to contract with CEG or a substitute service provider on similar terms or at all, and the costs of substituting service providers may be substantial. In addition, in light of CEG's familiarity with the Company's assets, a substitute service provider may not be able to provide the same level of service due to lack of pre-existing synergies. In connection with the provision of services under the CEG Master Services Agreement, during January 2026, CEG began the use of a new enterprise resource planning, or ERP, application to support its core business processes and data. The implementation of the new ERP application will continue to require significant human resources, which could impact CEG's ability to provide services to the Company under the CEG Master Services Agreement. CEG expects the new ERP application to be fully implemented by the end of the first quarter of 2026. In addition, the Company is relying on CEG's new ERP application to support its core business processes, data, financial accounting, financial reporting and internal controls. If CEG is unable to complete an effective implementation of its ERP application in a timely manner during the first quarter of 2026, it could adversely impact the Company and its ability to meet its financial reporting and internal control requirements.

------

***The liability of CEG is limited under the Company's arrangements with it, and the Company has agreed to indemnify CEG against claims that it may face in connection with such arrangements, which require the Company to satisfy significant indemnification obligations.***

Under the CEG Master Services Agreement, CEG does not assume any responsibility other than to provide or arrange for the provision of the services described in the CEG Master Services Agreement in good faith. In addition, under the CEG Master Services Agreement, the liability of CEG and its affiliates is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law to conduct involving bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence or, in the case of a criminal matter, action that was known to have been unlawful. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify CEG to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses incurred by an indemnified person or threatened in connection with the Company's operations, investments and activities or in respect of or arising from the CEG Master Services Agreement or the services provided by CEG, except to the extent that the claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses are determined to have resulted from the conduct in respect of which such persons have liability as described above. These protections may result in the Company assuming greater risks when CEG makes decisions relating to the Company. The indemnification arrangements may give rise to legal claims for indemnification that are adverse to the Company and holders of its common stock, and, depending on the scope and magnitude of these claims, the Company may incur significant expenses and other financial obligations to cover such claims.

***Certain of the Company's PPAs and facility-level financing arrangements include provisions that would permit the counterparty to terminate the contract or accelerate maturity in the event CEG ceases to control or own, directly or indirectly, a majority of the voting power of the Company.***

Certain of the Company's PPAs and facility-level financing arrangements contain change in control provisions that provide the counterparty with a termination right or the ability to accelerate maturity in the event of a change of control of the Company without the counterparty's consent. These provisions are triggered in the event CEG ceases to own, directly or indirectly, capital stock representing more than 50% of the voting power of the Company's capital stock outstanding on such date, or, in some cases, if CEG ceases to be the majority owner, directly or indirectly, of the applicable facility. As a result, if CEG ceases to control, or in some cases, own a majority of the voting power of the Company, the counterparties could terminate such contracts or accelerate the maturity of such financing arrangements. The termination of any of the Company's PPAs or the acceleration of the maturity of any of the Company's facility-level financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

***The Company is a "controlled company", controlled by CEG, and as a result, is exempt from certain corporate governance requirements that are designed to provide protection to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.***

As of December 31, 2025, CEG controls 54.89% of the Company's combined voting power and is able to elect all of the Company's Board of Directors. As a result, the Company is considered a "controlled company" for the purposes of the NYSE listing requirements. As a "controlled company," the Company is permitted to, and the Company may, take advantage of certain exemptions from corporate governance provisions in the NYSE listing requirements, including provisions that would require (i) a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors to be independent, (ii) that the Company establish a compensation committee and a nominating and governance committee, each comprised entirely of independent directors, or (iii) an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and governance and compensation committees. The NYSE listing requirements are intended to ensure that directors who meet the independence standards are free of any conflicting interest that could influence their actions as directors. While the Company has elected to have a Corporate Governance, Conflicts and Nominating Committee consisting entirely of independent directors and to conduct an annual performance evaluation of this committee, the majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors are not considered independent and the Company's compensation committee is not comprised entirely of independent directors. Therefore, the Company's stockholders may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the applicable NYSE listing requirements.

------

**Risks Related to Regulation**

***The Company's business is subject to restrictions resulting from environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.***

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental and health and safety laws and regulations. In addition, the Company may be held primarily or jointly and severally liable for costs relating to the investigation and clean-up of any property where there has been a release or threatened release of a hazardous regulated material as well as other affected properties, regardless of whether the Company knew of or caused the release. In addition to these costs, which are typically not limited by law or regulation and could exceed an affected property's value, the Company could be liable for certain other costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons, property or natural resources. Further, some environmental laws provide for the creation of a lien on a contaminated site in favor of the government as security for damages and any costs the government incurs in connection with such contamination and associated clean-up. Although the Company generally requires its operators to indemnify it for environmental liabilities the operators cause, the amount of such liabilities could exceed the financial ability of the operator to indemnify the Company. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may adversely affect the Company's ability to operate the business.

Local, state and federal regulations may focus on areas such as monitoring and restricting GHG emissions, which could prove unfavorable to the Company's segments depending on their form. Alternatively, local, state and federal regulations may also target restricting the development of renewable energy capacity through restrictions on land use, interconnection and removal of government incentives for renewable energy. Significant changes to local, state and federal regulations may have material impacts on the Company's cost of compliance with these regulations on the Company's ability to operate its existing assets economically. In addition, the Company may be adversely affected by changes to regulations that restrict the Company's ability to acquire or invest in new facilities. The effect on the Company of any new legislative or regulatory measures will depend on the particular provisions that are ultimately adopted. In addition, sudden changes to local, state or federal regulations may result in the Company's inability to quickly react and respond to these changes.

Companies across all industries may face increased scrutiny from the public, stakeholders and government agencies related to their environmental, social, and governance, or ESG, practices and commitments to address climate change. For example, in March 2024, the SEC adopted a new set of rules that would require a wide range of climate-related disclosures, including material climate-related risks, information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant's business, results of operations or financial condition, Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions on a phased-in basis by certain large registrants when those emissions are material and the filing of an attestation report covering the same and disclosure of the financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, including costs and losses. Litigation challenging the rules was filed by multiple parties in multiple jurisdictions, which was consolidated and assigned to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC announced that it was voluntarily delaying the implementation of the climate disclosure rules while the U.S. Court of Appeals considered the litigation. On March 27, 2025, the SEC voted to end the defense of the rules in the litigation. On September 12, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals denied the SEC's request to proceed with the case and indicated that the case would be held in abeyance until the SEC either renews its defense of the rules or revises the rules through notice-and-comment rulemaking. Additionally, in September 2023, California passed climate-related disclosure mandates, which are broader than the SEC's proposed rules. In the event the SEC's climate disclosure rules go into effect or states in which the Company operates or does business adopt climate disclosure requirements, the Company could incur significant additional costs relating to the assessment and disclosure of climate-related risks.

In recent years, investor advocacy groups, institutional investors, investment funds, and other influential investors have placed increasing importance on ESG practices. Increased focus and activism related to ESG and similar matters may hinder access to capital, as investors may decide to reallocate capital or to not commit capital as a result of their assessment of a company's ESG practices. While the Company is committed to engaging with its stakeholders on ESG practices in a proactive, holistic and integrated manner, changes in the public or stakeholder sentiment could impact the Company's ability to fund its assets in the Flexible Generation segment or decrease the demand for the energy generated by these assets. In addition, the additional disclosure requirements involve a significant recordkeeping requirement, which could result in the need for additional resources to support compliance. The Company will also be reliant upon its vendors in providing the necessary information for compliance, which may provide additional challenges in meeting compliance requirements. Further, failure or a perception of failure to implement the Company's ESG practices or achieve sustainability goals and targets it has set could damage the Company's reputation, causing investors or customers to lose confidence in the Company, and negatively impact the business.

***The electric generation business is subject to substantial governmental regulation and may be adversely affected by changes in laws or regulations, as well as liability under, or any future inability to comply with, existing or future regulations or other legal requirements.***

The Company's electric generation business is subject to extensive U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations. Compliance with the requirements under these various regulatory regimes may cause the Company to incur significant additional costs, and failure to comply with such requirements could result in the shutdown of the non-complying facility, the imposition of liens, fines, and/or civil or criminal liability. Public utilities under the FPA are required to obtain FERC acceptance of their rate schedules for wholesale sales of electric energy, capacity and ancillary services. Except for generating facilities located in Hawaii or in Texas within the footprint of ERCOT, all of the Company's generating companies are public utilities under the FPA with market-based rate authority unless exempt from FPA public utility rate regulation. FERC's orders that grant market-based rate authority to wholesale power sellers reserve the right to revoke or revise that authority if FERC subsequently determines that the seller can exercise market power in transmission or generation, create barriers to entry, or engage in abusive affiliate transactions. In addition, public utilities are subject to FERC reporting requirements that impose administrative burdens and that, if violated, can expose the company to criminal and civil penalties or other risks.

The Company's market-based sales are subject to certain rules prohibiting manipulative or deceptive conduct, and if any of the Company's generating companies with market-based rate authority are deemed to have violated those rules, they could be subject to potential disgorgement of profits associated with the violation, penalties, suspension or revocation of market-based rate authority. If such generating companies were to lose their market-based rate authority, such companies would be required to obtain FERC's acceptance of a cost-of-service rate schedule and could become subject to the significant accounting, record-keeping, and reporting requirements that are imposed on utilities with cost-based rate schedules. This could have a material adverse effect on the rates the Company is able to charge for power from its facilities.

All of the Company's generating assets are operating either as EWGs as defined under the PUHCA, or as QFs as defined under the PURPA, as amended, and are not required to comply with certain regulation under the PUHCA and the FPA. If a facility fails to maintain its status as an EWG or a QF or there are legislative or regulatory changes revoking or limiting the exemptions to the PUHCA and/or the FPA, then the Company may be subject to significant accounting, record-keeping, access to books and records and reporting requirements, and failure to comply with such requirements could result in the imposition of penalties and additional compliance obligations.

Substantially all of the Company's generation assets are also subject to the reliability standards promulgated by the designated Electric Reliability Organization (currently the North American Electric Reliability Corporation, or NERC) and approved by FERC. If the Company fails to comply with the mandatory reliability standards, it could be subject to sanctions, including substantial monetary penalties and increased compliance obligations. The Company will also be affected by legislative and regulatory changes, as well as changes to market design, market rules, tariffs, cost allocations and bidding rules that occur in the existing regional markets operated by RTOs or ISOs, such as PJM. The RTOs/ISOs that oversee most of the wholesale power markets impose, and in the future may continue to impose, mitigation, including price limitations, offer caps, must-offer rules, non-performance penalties and other mechanisms to address some of the volatility and the potential exercise of market power in these markets. These types of price limitations and other regulatory mechanisms may have a material adverse effect on the profitability of the Company's generation facilities acquired in the future that sell energy, capacity and ancillary products into the wholesale power markets. The regulatory environment for electric generation has undergone significant changes in the last several years due to state and federal policies affecting wholesale competition and the creation of incentives for the addition of large amounts of new renewable generation and, in some cases, transmission assets. These changes are ongoing, and the Company cannot predict the future design of the wholesale power markets or the ultimate effect that the changing regulatory environment will have on the Company's business. In addition, in some of these markets, interested parties have proposed to re-regulate the markets or require divestiture of electric generation assets by asset owners or operators to reduce their market share. Other proposals to re-regulate may be made and legislative or other attention to the electric power market restructuring process may delay or reverse the deregulation process. If competitive restructuring of the electric power markets is reversed, discontinued, or delayed, the Company's business prospects and financial results could be negatively impacted.

Furthermore, revenues related to GenConn are established each year by the Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority. While such regulatory oversight is generally premised on the recovery of prudently incurred costs and a reasonable rate of return on invested capital, there can be no assurance that the applicable regulatory authorities approve rates or revenues that fully recover costs or provide an adequate return on the Company's capital investments. This risk of inadequate cost recovery could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

------

***The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations that impose extensive and increasingly stringent requirements on its operations, as well as potentially substantial liabilities arising out of environmental contamination.***

The Company's assets are subject to numerous and significant federal, state and local laws, including statutes, regulations, guidelines, policies, directives and other requirements governing or relating to, among other things: protection of wildlife, including threatened and endangered species; air emissions; discharges into water; water use; the storage, handling, use, transportation and distribution of dangerous goods and hazardous, residual and other regulated materials, such as chemicals; the prevention of releases of hazardous materials into the environment; the prevention, presence and remediation of hazardous materials in soil and groundwater, both on and offsite; land use and zoning matters; and workers' health and safety matters. The Company's facilities could experience incidents, malfunctions and other unplanned events that could result in spills or emissions in excess of permitted levels and result in personal injury, penalties and property damage. Any failure to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to equipment failures, or obtain required governmental approvals and permits, may result in the assessment of administrative, civil or criminal penalties, imposition of investigatory or remedial activities and, in certain, less common circumstances, issuance of temporary or permanent injunctions, or construction or operation bans or delays. As such, the operation of the Company's facilities carries an inherent risk of environmental, health and safety liabilities (including potential civil actions, compliance or remediation orders, fines and other penalties), and may result in the assets being involved from time to time in administrative and judicial proceedings relating to such matters. The Company has implemented environmental, health and safety management programs designed to continually improve environmental, health and safety performance. Environmental laws and regulations have generally become more stringent over time. Significant costs may be incurred for capital expenditures under environmental programs to keep the assets compliant with such environmental laws and regulations. If it is not economical to make those expenditures, it may be necessary to retire or mothball facilities or restrict or modify the Company's operations to comply with more stringent standards. These environmental requirements and liabilities could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***The Company's business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. laws and regulations regarding privacy and data protection. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, increased cost of operations, or otherwise harm the Company's business.***

The regulatory environment surrounding data privacy and protection is constantly evolving, and new or amended data protection laws pose increasingly complex compliance challenges and potentially elevate the Company's costs. Complying with varying jurisdictional requirements could increase the costs and complexity of compliance, and violations of applicable data protection laws can result in significant penalties. Any failure, or perceived failure, by the Company to comply with applicable data protection laws could result in proceedings or actions against the Company by governmental entities or private parties, subject the Company to significant fines, penalties, judgments, and negative publicity, require the Company to change its business practices, and increase the costs and complexity of compliance, any of which could adversely affect the Company's business. As noted above, the Company is also subject to the possibility of cyberattacks, which themselves may result in a violation of these laws. Additionally, if the Company acquires a company that has violated or is not in compliance with applicable data protection laws, the Company may incur significant liabilities and penalties as a result.

***Government regulations providing incentives for renewable power generation and battery energy storage could change at any time and such changes may negatively impact the Company's growth strategy.***

The Company's growth strategy depends in part on government policies that support renewable generation and energy storage and enhance the economic viability of owning renewable power generation assets. Renewable power generation assets currently benefit from various federal, state and local governmental incentives such as ITCs, PTCs, loan guarantee programs, RPS programs and accelerated depreciation for tax purposes. These laws, regulations and policies have had a significant impact on the development of renewable power generation facilities and they could be changed, reduced or eliminated at any time. These incentives make the development of renewable power generation facilities more competitive by providing tax credits or grants and accelerated depreciation for a portion of the development costs, decreasing the costs and risks associated with developing such facilities or creating demand for renewable power assets through RPS programs.

The elimination or loss of, or reduction in, such incentives as a result of future legislation or regulation could (i) decrease the attractiveness of renewable power generation or BESS facilities to developers, including, but not limited to, CEG, which could reduce the Company's acquisition opportunities, (ii) reduce the Company's willingness to pursue or develop certain renewable power facilities due to higher operating costs or decreased revenues under its PPAs, (iii) cause the market for future renewable energy PPAs to be smaller and the prices for future renewable energy PPAs to be lower and/or (iv) result in increased financing costs and difficulty in obtaining financing on acceptable terms.

------

Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to grow its business and make cash distributions.

On August 15, 2025, the U.S. Treasury Department issued new guidance regarding the interpretation of "begin construction" requirements for wind, solar and BESS facilities that claim "technology neutral credits" under sections 45Y or 48E of the Internal Revenue Code. The guidance requires developers of wind and solar projects with a maximum net output of greater than 1.5 megawatts to perform physical work of a significant nature to qualify a project as having started, and then meet a continuity test. Under the continuity test, developers must place a project in service within four years after the end of the year in which construction starts or show that construction has been continuous from and after the start. The new guidance applies only to wind and solar projects that seek to qualify for "technology neutral credits" under Sections 45Y and 48E of the Internal Revenue Code and applies only for purposes of determining whether projects began construction before July 4, 2026. It does not apply to projects that began construction prior to September 2, 2025.

***Changes in U.S. foreign trade policies, including the imposition of additional tariffs and other trade barriers, and efforts to withdraw from or materially modify international trade agreements, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operations and financial condition.***

U.S. foreign trade policy continues to evolve, and recent actions have resulted in the imposition of new and increased tariffs, as well as other trade barriers, on the foreign import of certain materials and products. For example, effective February 4, 2025, the U.S. government implemented an additional tariff on goods imported into the U.S. from China and announced additional tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. from Mexico and Canada beginning in March 2025. Additionally, the U.S. government announced and rescinded multiple tariffs on several foreign jurisdictions, which increased uncertainty regarding the ultimate effect on the tariffs on economic conditions. In August 2025, however, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ruled that the tariffs imposed by the current administration exceed presidential authority and therefore are invalid, and in February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed such decision. Following the ruling, the current administration signed an executive order imposing a 10% "global tariff" and later indicated an intention to increase such "global tariff" to 15%, effective immediately, using presidential powers under certain U.S. trade laws. If implemented, such tariffs can remain in effect for up to 150 days, which may be extended by the U.S. Congress. The current administration may continue to impose additional tariffs under other U.S. trade laws. The Company cannot predict what additional changes to trade policy will be made by the presidential administration or Congress, including whether existing tariff policies will be maintained or modified, what materials or products may be subject to such policies or whether the entry into new bilateral or multilateral trade agreements, or the amendment or termination of existing trade agreements, will occur, nor can the Company predict the effects that any such changes would have on its business. However, such steps, if adopted, could increase the Company's costs, disrupt supply chains, delay project timelines or otherwise adversely impact its business and operations. In addition, changes in U.S. trade policy have resulted, and could again result, in reactions from U.S. trading partners, including adopting responsive trade policies. For example, in response to the U.S. government's additional tariff on imports from China, on February 4, 2025, the Chinese government announced that it would implement tariffs on certain goods being imported into China from the U.S. Similar responsive measures have been announced or implemented by other countries affected by U.S. trade actions. There can be no assurance that such changes in U.S. or foreign trade policy or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, and any resulting negative sentiments or retaliatory trade practices towards the U.S. as a result of such changes, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

**Risks Related to the Company's Common Stock**

***The Company may not be able to continue paying comparable or growing cash dividends to holders of its common stock in the future.***

The amount of CAFD principally depends upon the amount of cash the Company generates from its operations, which will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• variations in revenues generated by the business, due to seasonality, weather, unplanned plant outages, contractual pricing structures or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the level and timing of capital expenditures the Company makes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the level of operating and general and administrative expenses, including reimbursements to CEG for services provided to the Company in accordance with the CEG Master Services Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• debt service requirements and other liabilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Company's ability to borrow funds and access capital markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• restrictions contained in the Company's debt agreements (including facility-level financing and, if applicable, corporate debt); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other business risks affecting cash levels.

As a result of all these factors, the Company cannot guarantee that it will have sufficient cash generated from operations to pay a specific level of cash dividends to holders of its Class A or Class C common stock. Furthermore, holders of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock should be aware that the amount of CAFD depends primarily on operating cash flow, and is not solely a function of profitability, which can be affected by non-cash items.

The Company may incur other expenses or liabilities during a period that could significantly reduce or eliminate its CAFD and, in turn, impair its ability to pay dividends to holders of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock during the period. Because the Company is a holding company, its ability to pay dividends on the Company's Class A or Class C common stock is restricted and further limited by the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to make distributions to the Company, including restrictions under the terms of the agreements governing the Company's corporate debt and facility-level financing. For example, as a result of the bankruptcy of PG&E, between early 2019 and mid-2020, certain of the Company's assets and investments were unable to make distributions to the Company. The facility-level financing agreements generally prohibit distributions from the operating subsidiaries prior to COD and thereafter prohibit distributions to the Company unless certain specific conditions are met, including the satisfaction of financial ratios. The Company's revolving credit facility also restricts the Company's ability to declare and pay dividends if an event of default has occurred and is continuing or if the payment of the dividend would result in an event of default.

Clearway Energy LLC's cash flow will likely fluctuate from quarter to quarter, in some cases significantly, due to seasonality, weather volatility and other factors. As a result, the Company may cause Clearway Energy LLC to reduce the amount of cash it distributes to its members in a particular quarter to establish reserves to fund distributions to its members in future periods for which the cash distributions the Company would otherwise receive from Clearway Energy LLC would be insufficient to fund its quarterly dividend. If the Company fails to cause Clearway Energy LLC to establish sufficient reserves, the Company may not be able to maintain its quarterly dividend with respect to a quarter adversely affected by seasonality.

Finally, dividends to holders of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock will be paid at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company's Board of Directors may decrease the level, or entirely discontinue payment, of dividends.

------

***The Company is a holding company and its primary asset is its interest in Clearway Energy LLC, and the Company is accordingly dependent upon distributions from Clearway Energy LLC and its subsidiaries to pay dividends and taxes and other expenses.***

The Company is a holding company and its primary asset is its ownership of membership interests in Clearway Energy LLC, a holding company that has no material assets other than its interest in Clearway Energy Operating LLC, whose sole material assets are the operating subsidiaries. Neither Clearway Energy LLC nor Clearway Energy Operating LLC has any independent means of generating revenue. The Company intends to continue to cause Clearway Energy Operating LLC's subsidiaries to make distributions to Clearway Energy Operating LLC and, in turn, make distributions to Clearway Energy LLC, and, in turn, to make distributions to the Company in an amount sufficient to cover all applicable taxes payable and dividends, if any, declared by the Company. To the extent that the Company needs funds for a quarterly cash dividend to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock or otherwise, and Clearway Energy Operating LLC or Clearway Energy LLC is restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or is otherwise unable to provide such funds (including as a result of Clearway Energy Operating LLC's operating subsidiaries being unable to make distributions), it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity and financial condition and limit the Company's ability to pay dividends to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.

***Market interest rates may have an effect on the value of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.***

One of the factors that influences the price of shares of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock is the effective dividend yield of such shares (i.e., the yield as a percentage of the then market price of the Company's shares) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates may lead investors of shares of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock to expect a higher dividend yield. If the Company is unable to increase its dividend as a result of higher borrowing costs, insufficient CAFD or otherwise, this could result in selling pressure and a decrease in the market prices of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock as investors seek alternative investments with higher yields.

***Market volatility and reports by securities or industry analysts may affect the price of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.***

The market price of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which the Company cannot predict or control, including general market and economic conditions, disruptions, downgrades, credit events and perceived problems in the credit markets; actual or anticipated variations in its quarterly operating results or dividends; natural disasters, wildfires and other weather-related events; changes in the Company's investments or asset composition; write-downs or perceived credit or liquidity issues affecting the Company's assets; market perception of CEG or its owners, the Company's business and the Company's assets; the Company's level of indebtedness and/or adverse market reaction to any indebtedness that the Company may incur in the future; the Company's ability to raise capital on favorable terms or at all; loss of any major funding source; additions or departures of the Company's executive officers or key personnel; changes in market valuations of similar power generation companies; and speculation in the press or investment community regarding the Company or CEG (or its owners); and other factors described or referenced in this Item 1A — *Risk Factors*.

Securities markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. Any broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock.

Furthermore, any significant disruption to the Company's ability to access the capital markets, or a significant increase in interest rates, could make it difficult for the Company to successfully acquire attractive facilities from third parties and may also limit the Company's ability to obtain debt or equity financing to complete such acquisitions. If the Company is unable to raise adequate proceeds when needed to fund such acquisitions, the ability to grow the Company's operating portfolio may be limited, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to implement its growth strategy and, ultimately, its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The trading market for the Company's Class A and Class C common stock is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about the Company, the Company's business, the Company's market or the Company's competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover the Company change their recommendation regarding the Company's Class A and/or Class C common stock adversely or provide more favorable relative recommendations about the Company's competitors, the price of the Company's Class A and/or Class C common stock could decline. If any analyst who covers the Company were to cease coverage of the Company or fail to regularly publish reports on the Company, the Company could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the stock price or trading volume of the Company's Class A and/or Class C common stock to decline.

------

***Provisions of the Company's charter documents or Delaware law could delay or prevent an acquisition of the Company, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock, and could make it more difficult to change management.***

Provisions of the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation and fourth amended and restated bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock may consider favorable, including transactions in which such stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. This is because these provisions may prevent or frustrate attempts by stockholders to replace or remove members of the Company's management. These provisions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a prohibition on stockholder action through written consent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a requirement that special meetings of stockholders be called upon a resolution approved by a majority of the Company's directors then in office;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the authority of the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock with such terms as the Board of Directors may determine.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder, generally a person that together with its affiliates owns or within the last three years has owned 15% of voting stock, for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Additionally, the Company's restated certificate of incorporation prohibits any person and any of its associate or affiliate companies in the aggregate, public utility or holding company from acquiring, other than secondary market transactions, an amount of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock sufficient to result in a transfer of control without the prior written consent of the Company's Board of Directors. Any such change of control, in addition to prior approval from the Company's Board of Directors, would require prior authorization from FERC. Similar restrictions may apply to certain purchasers of the Company's securities which are holding companies regardless of whether the Company's securities are purchased in offerings by the Company, in open market transactions or otherwise. A purchaser of the Company's securities which is a holding company will need to determine whether a given purchase of the Company's securities may require prior FERC approval.

***Investors may experience dilution of their ownership interest due to the future issuance of additional shares of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock.***

The Company is in a capital intensive business and may not have sufficient funds to finance the growth of the Company's business, future acquisitions or to support the Company's projected capital expenditures. As a result, the Company may require additional funds from further equity or debt financings, including tax equity financing transactions, sales under the ATM Program or the DSPP or sales of preferred shares or convertible debt, to complete future acquisitions, expansions and capital expenditures and pay the general and administrative costs of the Company's business. In the future, the Company may issue its previously authorized and unissued securities, including shares under its ATM Program or the DRIP/DSPP, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of purchasers of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock. Under the Company's restated certificate of incorporation, the Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 500,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, 1,000,000,000 shares of Class C common stock, 1,000,000,000 shares of Class D common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with preferences and rights as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. The potential issuance of additional shares of common stock or preferred stock or convertible debt may create downward pressure on the trading price of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock. The Company may also issue additional shares of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for the Company's Class A or Class C common stock in future public offerings or private placements for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, potentially at an offering price, conversion price or exercise price that is below the current trading price of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock. The Company cannot predict the effect that issuances or sales of its Class A or Class C common stock, including pursuant to the ATM Program or the DRIP/DSPP, may have on the market prices for its Class A and Class C common stock.

***Future sales of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock by CEG may cause the price of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock to fall.***

The market price of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock could decline as a result of sales by CEG of such shares (issuable to CEG upon the exchange of some or all of its Clearway Energy LLC Class B or Class D units, respectively) in the market, or the perception that these sales could occur.

------

The market price of the Company's Class A or Class C common stock may also decline as a result of CEG disposing or transferring some or all of the Company's outstanding Class B or Class D common stock, which disposals or transfers would reduce CEG's ownership interest in, and voting control over, the Company. These sales might also make it more difficult for the Company to sell equity securities at a time and price that the Company deems appropriate. CEG and certain of its affiliates have certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to shares of the Company's Class A common stock issuable upon the exchange of Clearway Energy LLC's Class B units and/or Class C common stock issuable upon the exchange of Clearway Energy LLC's Class D units. The presence of additional shares of the Company's Class A and/or Class C common stock trading in the public market, as a result of the exercise of such registration rights, could have a material adverse effect on the market price of the Company's securities.

**Risks Related to Taxation**

***The Company's future tax liability may be greater than expected if the Company does not generate NOLs sufficient to offset taxable income, if federal, state and local tax authorities challenge certain of the Company's tax positions and exemptions or if changes in federal, state and local tax laws occur. The Company may incur contractual obligations from the indemnification of third parties if tax authorities challenge the amount or availability of ITCs, PTCs or related tax benefits that the Company is obligated to provide to such third parties under such contractual arrangements.***

The Company expects to (i) carryforward prior year NOL balances to offset future taxable income and (ii) generate tax credits and carryforward prior year tax credits to offset future income tax liabilities. Based on the Company's current portfolio of assets, which include renewable energy assets that benefit from accelerated tax depreciation deductions and federal tax credits, the Company estimates it will not pay material income tax payments through 2030.

While the Company expects its NOLs and tax credits will be available as a future benefit, in the event that they are not generated as expected, successfully challenged by the IRS or state and local jurisdictions (in a tax audit or otherwise) or subject to future limitations from a potential change in ownership, the Company's ability to realize these benefits may be limited. In addition, the Company's ability to realize state and local tax exemptions, including property or sales and use tax exemptions, is subject to various tax law requirements. If these exemptions are successfully challenged by state and local jurisdictions or if a change in tax law occurs, the Company's ability to realize these exemptions could be affected. A reduction in the Company's expected NOLs or tax credits, a limitation on the Company's ability to use such losses or tax credits and challenges by tax authorities to the Company's tax positions may result in a material increase in the Company's estimated future income, sales/use and property tax liability and may negatively impact the Company's liquidity and financial condition.

In addition, the Company routinely enters into arrangements with third parties that provide tax equity financing to, or acquire tax credits, including ITCs or PTCs, from, the Company where tax credits and related tax benefits represent a material portion of the economic benefit of the arrangement to such other party. In certain circumstances, as is customary in the industry, the Company has guaranteed and may have to guarantee the economic benefit of such tax credits and other tax benefits to such party. A reduction in expected tax credits or tax benefits resulting from successful challenges by the IRS could result in an obligation under the Company's contractual arrangements that could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

***The Company's ability to use NOLs to offset future income may be limited.***

The Company's ability to use NOLs could be substantially limited if the Company is unable to generate future taxable income or were to experience an "ownership change" as defined under Section 382 of the Code. In general, an "ownership change" would occur if the Company's "5-percent shareholders," as defined under Section 382 of the Code, collectively increased their ownership in the Company by more than 50 percentage points over a rolling three-year period. A corporation that experiences an ownership change will generally be subject to an annual limitation on the use of its pre-ownership change NOLs equal to the equity value of the corporation immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt rate for the month in which the ownership change occurs, increased by certain adjustments for built-in gains at the time of the ownership change. Future sales of any class of the Company's common stock by CEG, as well as future issuances by the Company, could contribute to a potential ownership change.

------

***A valuation allowance may be required for the Company's deferred tax assets.***

The Company's expected NOLs and tax credits will be reflected as a deferred tax asset as they are generated until utilized to offset income. Valuation allowances may need to be maintained for deferred tax assets that the Company estimates are more likely than not to be unrealizable, based on available evidence at the time the estimate is made. Valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets can be affected by changes to tax laws, statutory tax rates and future taxable income levels. In the event that the Company was to determine that it would not be able to realize all or a portion of its net deferred tax assets in the future, the Company would reduce such amounts through a charge to income tax expense in the period in which that determination was made, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

***Distributions to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock may be taxable.***

The amount of distributions to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C common stock that will be treated as taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes to such holders will depend on the amount of the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits. It is difficult to predict whether the Company will generate earnings and profits as computed for federal income tax purposes in any given tax year. Generally, a corporation's earnings and profits are computed based upon taxable income, with certain specified adjustments. Distributions will constitute ordinary dividend income to the extent paid from the Company's current or accumulated earnings and profits. Distributions in excess of the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of a stockholder's basis in his or her Class A or Class C common stock. Distributions in excess of the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits and in excess of a stockholder's basis will be treated as gain from the sale of the common stock.

The Company was in a cumulative earnings and profits deficit position as of the end of 2024 and did not generate any current earnings and profits during 2025. As a result, distributions made to holders of the Company's Class A and Class C Common stock in 2025 were treated for U.S. tax purposes as a nontaxable return of capital and reduction of a U.S. stockholder's tax basis in each of the Company's common shares, with any remaining amount being taxed as a capital gain. The classification of distributions made after 2025 will depend upon a number of factors, including but not limited to, the Company's overall performance and the gross amount of any distributions made to stockholders in 2026 and beyond.

***Changes in tax laws or policies, including but not limited to changes in corporate income tax rates, as well as judgments and estimates used in the determination of tax-related asset and liability amounts, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.***

The Company's provision for income taxes and reporting of tax-related assets and liabilities require significant judgments and the use of estimates. Amounts of tax-related assets and liabilities involve judgments and estimates of the timing and probability of recognition of income, deductions and tax credits, including, but not limited to, estimates for potential adverse outcomes regarding tax positions that have been taken and the ability to utilize tax benefit carryforwards, such as NOL and tax credit carryforwards. Actual income taxes could vary significantly from estimated amounts due to the future impacts of, among other things, changes in tax laws, guidance or policies, including changes in corporate income tax rates, the financial conditions and results of operations of the Company, and the resolution of audit issues raised by taxing authorities. These factors, including the ultimate resolution of income tax matters, may result in material adjustments to tax-related assets and liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Federal tax legislation was enacted on July 4, 2025. Notable provisions include the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation, the reinstatement of immediate deductibility of certain domestic research and experimental (R&E) expenditures, taxpayer favorable modifications to certain interest deductibility limitations and the phase out, repeal, and/or addition of stricter eligibility requirements for business tax credits and incentives for the development of clean energy facilities and production of clean energy, including wind, solar and BESS facilities. Among other things, (i) wind and solar facilities that begin construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 in order to qualify for PTCs or ITCs, (ii) BESS facilities that begin construction by December 31, 2033 receive full ITC value, stepping down to 75% for BESS facilities that begin construction in 2034, 50% for BESS facilities that begin construction in 2035 and 0% for BESS facilities that begin construction after 2035 and (iii) for facilities that begin construction after 2025, new foreign entity of concern requirements will restrict availability of the credits to wind, solar and BESS facilities if the entity that owns the facility has certain relationships with or makes certain payments to foreign entities of concern and, for facilities that begin construction after 2025, if the percentage of components in the facility manufactured by foreign entities of concern exceeds a specified percentage.

***The Company's ability to comply with tax laws and policies may depend on its contractual arrangements and information provided by third parties and may require significant resources.***

In order to qualify for tax credits and incentives available for the development of clean energy facilities and the production of clean energy, the Company must satisfy stringent compliance, recordkeeping and certification requirements. Additionally, in order to qualify for the full amount of available credits, the Company must comply with prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements applicable to facilities on which construction began on or after January 28, 2023. Applicable tax rules permit certain defects in meeting the requirements to be timely cured under certain conditions rather than causing a loss of the tax credits.

Moreover, the documentation required for this compliance will come from third-party vendors, including equipment manufacturers and engineering, procurement and construction contractors and subcontractors as well as the Company's internal sources. In addition, if there are defects in compliance with the prevailing wages and apprenticeship requirements, the payments to cure such deficiencies will need to be made by these third parties to their employees. The conduct of these third parties can also impact the right to claim tax credits and/or the exposure to penalties if they fail to adequately comply with the tax laws.

While the Company has secured and will continue to attempt to secure the necessary access to the information required to meet its compliance and certification requirements under the tax law and has included and will continue to include in contracts with third parties rights to have third parties make cure payments if necessary, the Company may not be able to control whether appropriate documentation is actually available or provided in a timely manner and/or whether cure actions are taken by a third party in a timely fashion. This may result in the incurrence of penalties and loss of tax credits. It is also possible that the terms negotiated with third parties fail to meet the requirements of tax law either with respect to compliance requirements, documentation or conduct of third-parties. The impact of such noncompliance could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, the costs and resources required to adequately comply with the aforementioned requirements and to monitor the activities of third parties are still to be determined as the Company puts in place its compliance and documentation program.

**Item 1C — Cybersecurity**

**Risk Management and Strategy**

The Company recognizes the critical importance of developing, implementing and maintaining robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard information systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data.

***Managing Material Risks & Integrated Overall Risk Management***

The Company has strategically integrated cybersecurity risk management into its broader risk management framework to promote a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management. The Company's risk management team works closely with the IT department to continuously evaluate and address cybersecurity risks in alignment with business objectives and operational needs. In addition, the Company follows the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF).

***Engage Third Parties on Risk Management***

Recognizing the complexity and evolving nature of cybersecurity threats, the Company engages with a range of external experts, including cybersecurity consultants in evaluating and testing its cybersecurity systems. The Company's collaboration with these third parties includes regular audits; threat and vulnerability assessments; incident response plan testing; company-wide monitoring of cybersecurity risks; and consultation on security enhancements.

***Oversee Third-Party Risk***

Due to the risks associated with the engagement of third-party vendors, service providers and business partners, the Company applies processes to manage these risks. Thorough security assessments of third-party vendors with access to internal protected data or information systems occurs before engagement, as well as ongoing monitoring to ensure compliance with relevant cybersecurity standards. The monitoring includes annual assessments by CEG's Vice President of Information Technology and its Director of Cybersecurity and assessments on an ongoing basis by the internal cybersecurity team. These services are provided to the Company pursuant to the CEG Master Services Agreement. This approach is designed to mitigate risks related to potential data breaches or other security incidents originating from third parties.

***Risks from Cybersecurity Threats***

As of February 24, 2026, the Company was not aware of any cybersecurity threats or incidents that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial standing. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's cybersecurity processes will prevent or mitigate cybersecurity incidents or threats or that the Company's efforts will always be successful. For further discussion regarding the Company's cybersecurity risks, see Item 1A — Risk Factors, *Risks Related to the Company's Business*.

**Governance**

***Board of Directors Oversight***

The Company's Board of Directors has oversight of cybersecurity risks and is well informed with respect to the nature and scope of such risks. The Board of Directors is acutely aware of the critical nature of managing risks associated with cybersecurity threats. The Board of Directors has established oversight mechanisms to ensure effective governance in managing risks associated with cybersecurity as they recognize the significance of these risks and threats to operational integrity and stakeholder confidence.

***Reporting to Board of Directors***

The Vice President of Information Technology and Director of Cybersecurity each play a pivotal role in informing the Board of Directors on cybersecurity risks. They provide briefings to the Board of Directors on a regular basis, with a minimum frequency of once per year. These briefings encompass a broad range of topics, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Current cybersecurity threat landscape and emerging threats;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Status of ongoing cybersecurity initiatives and strategies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Incident reports and learnings from any meaningful cybersecurity events; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Compliance status and efforts with regulatory requirements and industry standards.

------

In addition to scheduled meetings, the Board of Directors, the Vice President of Information Technology and the Director of Cybersecurity maintain an ongoing dialogue regarding emerging cybersecurity risks. Together, they receive updates on significant developments in the cybersecurity domain. The Board of Directors actively participates in strategic decisions related to cybersecurity, offering guidance and approval for major strategic decisions and initiatives. This involvement advances the Company's overall strategy that cybersecurity considerations are integrated into its broader strategic objectives. The Board of Directors conducts an annual review of the Company's cybersecurity posture and the effectiveness of its risk management strategies through the information, findings and recommendations from the Company's internal cybersecurity team as well as third-party audits, penetration tests and incident response plan testing outcomes. This review helps identify areas for improvement and helps align cybersecurity efforts with the overall risk management framework.

***Cybersecurity Risk Management Personnel***

Primary responsibility for assessing, monitoring and managing cybersecurity risks is overseen by the Vice President of Information Technology and Director of Cybersecurity, whose services are provided to the Company under the CEG Master Services Agreement.

With over 20 years of experience in the field of cybersecurity, the current Vice President of Information Technology's background includes in-depth knowledge and experience in developing and executing the Company's cybersecurity strategies. They oversee the Company's IT governance programs; test compliance with internal, industry and regulatory standards; remediate known risks; and lead the Company's employee training program.

The current Director of Cybersecurity has over 30 years of experience in information technology across a variety of industries and compliance programs. The Director of Cybersecurity has been heavily focused on cybersecurity in regulated industries for over 10 years.

***Management's Role Managing Cybersecurity Risk***

The Vice President of Information Technology and Director of Cybersecurity regularly inform the Company's management of all aspects related to cybersecurity risks and incidents. This ensures that the highest levels of management are kept abreast of the cybersecurity posture and potential risks facing the Company. Furthermore, significant cybersecurity matters and strategic risk management decisions are escalated to the Board of Directors, ensuring that the Board of Directors have insight and can provide guidance on critical cybersecurity issues.

***Monitor Cybersecurity Incidents***

The Vice President of Information Technology and Director of Cybersecurity are kept informed about the latest developments in cybersecurity, including emerging threats and innovative risk management techniques. They implement and oversee processes for the regular monitoring of the Company's information systems. This includes the deployment of advanced security measures and regular system audits to identify potential vulnerabilities. In the event of a cybersecurity incident, the Company is equipped with a defined and practiced incident response plan, which includes incident response retainers from respected third parties. This plan includes immediate actions to mitigate the impact of the incident, long-term strategies for remediation and the prevention of future incidents.

**Executive Summary**

**Introduction and Overview**

Clearway Energy, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, or the Company, is a publicly-traded energy infrastructure investor with a focus on investments in clean energy and owner of modern, sustainable and long-term contracted assets across North America. The Company is sponsored by Clearway Energy Group LLC, or CEG.

The Company is one of the largest owners of clean energy generation assets in the U.S. The Company's portfolio comprises approximately 12.9 GW of gross capacity in 27 states, including approximately 10.1 GW of wind, solar and battery energy storage systems, or BESS, and approximately 2.8 GW of dispatchable combustion-based power generation assets included in the Flexible Generation segment that provide critical grid reliability services. Through this environmentally-sound, diversified and primarily contracted portfolio, the Company endeavors to provide its investors with stable and growing dividend income. The majority of the Company's revenues are derived from long-term contractual arrangements for the output or capacity from these assets. The weighted average remaining contract duration of the Company's Renewables & Storage segment offtake agreements was approximately 12 years as of December 31, 2025 based on CAFD.

**Significant Events**

**Management's discussion of the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024**

***Operating Revenues***

Operating revenues increased by $58 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, due to a combination of the drivers summarized in the table below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | | **(In millions)** |
| **Renewables & Storage Segment** | Increase primarily driven by the Victory Pass and Arica solar and BESS, Rosamond Central BESS, Rosamond South I solar and BESS, Daggett 1 BESS and Pine Forest solar and BESS acquisitions, which reached commercial operations in March 2024, April 2024, June 2024, August 2025, September 2025 and November 2025, respectively, as well as the Catalina solar acquisition in July 2025. | $80 |
|  | Increase driven by the Cedar Creek and Tuolumne wind acquisitions in April 2024 and April 2025, respectively, as well as the Dan's Mountain wind acquisition, which reached commercial operations in May 2025. | 46 |
|  | Decrease primarily driven by lower wind resource at certain facilities. | &nbsp;&nbsp;(16) |
|  | Loss incurred on the partial buy-out of the Mt. Storm commodity contract in May 2025 and the subsequent buy-out of the remaining contract in July 2025. | &nbsp;&nbsp;(11) |
| **Flexible Generation Segment** | Decrease in energy revenue primarily driven by lower generation at the Walnut Creek, Marsh Landing and El Segundo facilities due to milder weather, which also decreased cost of fuels as noted below. | (48) |
| **Contract amortization** | Decrease primarily driven by the Tuolumne wind and Catalina solar acquisitions, partially offset by Cedro Hill, which reached repowering commercial operations in December 2024, resulting in the extension of the amortization period. | (5) |
| **Mark-to-market economic hedging activities** | Increase primarily driven by the Mt. Storm hedge buy-out during the second and third quarters of 2025, as well as lower forward prices in the PJM market, compared to 2024. | 22 |
|  | Decrease primarily driven by an increase in forward power prices in the ERCOT market. | (7) |
|  | Decrease in heat rate call option contracts primarily driven by changes in power market prices. | (3) |
|  |  | $58 |

---

***Cost of Fuels***

Cost of fuels decreased by $35 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to lower generation at the Walnut Creek, Marsh Landing and El Segundo facilities due to milder weather, which resulted in less fuel purchases.

***Operations and Maintenance Expense***

Operations and maintenance expense increased by $57 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to a combination of the drivers summarized below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The Company's principal liquidity requirements are to meet its financial commitments, finance current operations, fund capital expenditures, including investments and acquisitions from time to time, service debt and pay dividends. As a normal part of the Company's business, depending on market conditions, the Company will from time to time consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance its indebtedness. Changes in the Company's operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, investments, acquisitions or other events may cause the Company to seek additional debt or equity financing in future periods. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants and operating restrictions.

***Current Liquidity Position***

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's liquidity was approximately $1,061 million and $1,330 million, respectively, comprised of cash, restricted cash and availability under the Company's revolving credit facility.

Management continues to regularly monitor the Company's ability to finance the needs of its operating, financing and investing activity within the dictates of prudent balance sheet management.

***Credit Ratings***

Credit rating agencies rate a firm's public debt securities. These ratings are utilized by the debt markets in evaluating a firm's credit risk. Ratings influence the price paid to issue new debt securities by indicating to the market the Company's ability to pay principal, interest and preferred dividends. Rating agencies evaluate a firm's industry, cash flow, leverage, liquidity and hedge profile, among other factors, in their credit analysis of a firm's credit risk.

***Acquisitions and Investments***

The Company intends to acquire generation assets developed and constructed by CEG as well as generation assets from third parties where the Company believes its knowledge of the market and operating expertise provides a competitive advantage, and to utilize such acquisitions as a means to grow its business.

*Pine Forest Drop Down* — On June 10, 2025, the Company, through its indirect subsidiary, Pine Forest CE Class A Owner LLC, acquired the Class A membership interests in Pine Forest TargetCo, a partnership and the indirect owner of the Pine Forest solar and BESS facility, from Clearway Renew for initial cash consideration of $18 million. Also on June 10, 2025, the Company, through its indirect subsidiary, Pine Forest TE Class A, contributed $9 million to acquire the Class A membership interests in Pine Forest TE HoldCo LLC. On December 17, 2025, when Pine Forest reached substantial completion, the Company paid $50 million to Clearway Renew as an additional purchase price and the Company contributed an additional $38 million for its Class A membership interests in Pine Forest TE HoldCo LLC. Pine Forest has PPAs for the solar facility with investment-grade counterparties and a 20-year weighted average contract duration that commenced in December 2025. The acquisition was funded with existing sources of liquidity. As part of the acquisition of Pine Forest, the Company assumed the facility's financing agreement, which included a construction loan, a cash equity bridge loan, a tax equity bridge loan and a tax credit transfer bridge loan. Upon the facility reaching substantial completion, the third-party cash equity investor contributed $144 million and CEG contributed $49 million, which were utilized, along with the $9 million previously held in escrow, to repay the cash equity bridge loan, to repay the tax equity bridge loan, to partially repay the tax credit transfer bridge loan, to fund construction completion reserves and to pay associated fees. Additionally, on December 17, 2025, the outstanding construction loans were converted to a term loan. Subsequent to the acquisition during 2025, the Company borrowed an additional $52 million in cash equity bridge loans. The Company's total capital investment in Pine Forest TargetCo was $115 million.

Since the Company holds the Class A membership interests in Pine Forest TE HoldCo LLC through Pine Forest TE Class A, net income attributable to Clearway Energy, Inc. will reflect HLBV allocations associated with Pine Forest's tax attributes, which may result in larger losses allocated to the Company in early periods of the facility's operations relative to other partnerships.

In January 2026, the Company repaid the $231 million outstanding on the tax credit transfer bridge loan utilizing the proceeds received from the sale of transferable ITCs, and distributed the remaining $51 million to CEG.

**NOLs, Deferred Tax Assets and Uncertain Tax Position Implications, under ASC 740**

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has a cumulative federal NOL carryforward balance of $212 million for financial statement purposes, none of which are subject to expiration. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, the Company has a cumulative state NOL carryforward balance of $100 million for financial statement purposes, which will expire between 2026 and 2042 if unutilized. The Company does not anticipate material income tax payments through at least 2030. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, the Company had PTC and ITC carryforward balances totaling $18 million, which will expire between 2036 and 2045 if unutilized.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has an interest disallowance carryforward of $107 million as a result of Internal Revenue Code §163(j). The disallowed interest deduction has an indefinite carryforward period and any limitations on the utilization of this carryforward have been factored into the Company's valuation allowance analysis. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had an interest disallowance carryforward of $82 million.

The Company, after the utilization of NOL and tax credit carryforwards, paid $1 million in income taxes during the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company does not anticipate being subject to the corporate minimum tax on financial statement income, which is discussed in further detail below.

Federal tax legislation enacted on July 4, 2025 contains a number of revisions to the Internal Revenue Code, including adjustments to the business interest expense disallowance calculation, accelerated tax depreciation and business tax credits and incentives for the development of clean energy facilities and production of clean energy, including wind, solar and BESS facilities. These changes did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and the Company does not anticipate that these changes will have an adverse impact either (i) on the anticipated pipeline of facilities being developed by the Company's sponsor, CEG, through at least 2030 or (ii) on the operation of facilities owned and operated by the Company. The Company will continue to monitor future guidance issued by the United States Department of the Treasury to assess for potential impacts on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities for income tax returns filed in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. All tax returns filed by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and forward remain subject to audit. As of December 31, 2025, the U.S. federal partnership returns of two of the Company's subsidiaries are under audit by the IRS. The Company and its subsidiaries are also periodically subject to various state tax audits, including one current audit as a result of filing an amended return in order to pursue a potential California tax refund. The IRS has not yet issued any proposed adjustments with respect to the two subsidiaries under audit. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of each of these audits will not be material to the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity, and thus no material provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. The outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty and if any issues addressed in tax audits of the Company are resolved in a manner inconsistent with its expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.

The Company has an unrecognized tax benefit of $19 million as of December 31, 2025.

The Company has elected to disclose derivative assets and liabilities on a trade-by-trade basis and does not offset amounts at the counterparty master agreement level.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The Company's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements and related disclosures in compliance with GAAP requires the application of appropriate technical accounting rules and guidance as well as the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The application of these policies necessarily involves judgments regarding future events, including the likelihood of success of particular facilities, legal and regulatory challenges and the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. These judgments, in and of themselves, could materially affect the financial statements and disclosures based on varying assumptions, which may be appropriate to use. In addition, the financial and operating environment may also have a significant effect, not only on the operation of the business, but on the results reported through the application of accounting measures used in preparing the financial statements and related disclosures, even if the nature of the accounting policies has not changed.

On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, utilizing historic experience, consultation with experts and other methods the Company considers reasonable. Actual results may differ substantially from the Company's estimates. Any effects on the Company's business, financial position or results of operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recorded in the period in which the information that gives rise to the revision becomes known.

The Company's significant accounting policies are summarized in Item 15 — Note 2, *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*. The Company identifies its most critical accounting policies as those that are the most pervasive and important to the portrayal of the Company's financial position and results of operations, and that require the most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments by management regarding estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company's critical accounting policies include income taxes and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, accounting utilizing Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value, or HLBV, and determining the fair value of financial instruments.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **<u>Accounting Policy</u>** | **Judgments/Uncertainties Affecting Application** |
| Income Taxes and Valuation Allowance for Deferred Tax Assets | Ability to withstand legal challenges of tax authority decisions or appeals |
| | Anticipated future decisions of tax authorities |
| | Application of tax statutes and regulations to transactions |
| | Ability to utilize tax benefits through carry backs to prior periods and carryforwards to future periods |
| Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) | Estimates of taxable income (loss) and tax capital accounts |
| | Estimated calculation of specified target investor returns |
| | Application of liquidation provisions of operating agreements |
| Financial Instruments | Use of unobservable market inputs such as future electricity prices, future interest rates and discount rates |

***Income Taxes and Valuation Allowance for Deferred Tax Assets***

In determining whether a valuation allowance is required for deferred tax assets, the Company must assess whether it believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income which includes the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences to realize deferred tax assets. The Company considers the timing and future realization of net deferred tax assets, the profit before tax generated in recent years as well as projections of future earnings and estimates of taxable income in arriving at this conclusion. The realization of deferred tax assets is primarily dependent upon earnings in federal and various state and local jurisdictions. Judgment is also required to continually assess changing tax regulations, interpretations and new legislation to determine the impact on the Company's tax position.

***Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV)***

Certain portions of the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries and noncontrolling interest represent third-party interests in the net assets under tax equity arrangements, which are consolidated by the Company, that were established to finance the cost of facilities eligible for certain tax credits and benefits. The Company has determined that the provisions in the contractual agreements of these redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests represent substantive profit sharing arrangements. Further, the Company has determined that the appropriate methodology for calculating the redeemable noncontrolling and noncontrolling interest that reflects the substantive profit sharing arrangements is a balance sheet approach utilizing the HLBV method. Under the HLBV method, the amounts reported as redeemable noncontrolling and noncontrolling interest represent the amounts the investors to the tax equity arrangements would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet date under the liquidation provisions of the contractual agreements, assuming the net assets of the funding structures were liquidated at their recorded amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. The investors' interests in the results of operations of the funding structures are determined as the difference in redeemable noncontrolling and noncontrolling interest at the start and end of each reporting period, after taking into account any capital transactions between the structures and the funds' investors. The calculations utilized to apply the HLBV method include estimated calculations of taxable income or losses for each reporting period as well as estimated calculations of tax capital accounts based on the relevant provisions of each agreement and the related tax guidance. In addition, these calculations often take into account the stipulated targeted investor return specified in the subsidiaries' operating agreement and agreed by the members of the arrangement. In certain circumstances, the Company and its partners in the tax equity arrangements agree that certain tax benefits are to be utilized outside of the tax equity arrangements, which may result in differences in the amount an investor would hypothetically receive at the initial balance sheet date calculated strictly in accordance with related contractual agreements. These differences are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations using a systematic and rational method over the period during which the investor is expected to achieve its target return. In certain cases, the Company must apply judgment in determining the methodology for applying the HLBV method and changes in certain factors may have a significant impact on the amounts that an investor would receive upon a hypothetical liquidation. The use of the HLBV method to allocate income (loss) to the noncontrolling interest holders may create volatility in the consolidated statements of operations.

------

***Financial Instruments*** 

The Company records its financial instruments, which primarily consist of derivative financial instruments, at fair value. The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments using discounted cash flow models that require the use of assumptions concerning the amount of estimated future cash flows. The assumptions are determined using external, observable market inputs when available. When observable market inputs are not available, the Company must apply significant judgment to determine market participant assumptions such as future electricity prices, future natural gas prices, future interest rates and discount rates. As these inputs are based on estimates, fair values may not reflect the amounts actually realized from the related transaction.

***Recent Accounting Developments***

See Item 15 — Note 2, *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, for a discussion of recent accounting developments.

**Item 7A — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

The Company is exposed to several market risks in its normal business activities. Market risk is the potential loss that may result from market changes associated with the Company's power generation or with an existing or forecasted financial or commodity transaction. The types of market risks the Company is exposed to are commodity price risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

***Commodity Price Risk***

Commodity price risks result from exposures to changes in spot prices, forward prices, volatilities, and correlations between various commodities, such as electricity, natural gas and emissions credits. The Company manages the commodity price risk of certain of its merchant generation operations by entering into derivative or non-derivative instruments to hedge the variability in future cash flows from forecasted power sales. The portion of forecasted transactions hedged may vary based upon management's assessment of market, weather, operation and other factors. See Item 15 — Note 7, *Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities*, for more information.

Based on a sensitivity analysis using simplified assumptions, the impact of a $0.50 per MWh increase or decrease in power prices across the term of the long-term power commodity contracts would cause a change of approximately $4 million to the net value of the related derivatives as of December 31, 2025.

***Interest Rate Risk***

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates through its issuance of variable rate debt. Exposures to interest rate fluctuations may be mitigated by entering into derivative instruments known as interest rate swaps, caps, collars and put or call options. These contracts reduce exposure to interest rate volatility and result in primarily fixed rate debt obligations when taking into account the combination of the variable rate debt and the interest rate derivative instrument. See Item 15 — Note 7, *Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,* for more information.

The Company and most of its subsidiaries enter into interest rate swaps intended to hedge the risks associated with interest rates on non-recourse facility level debt or any potential refinancing of the Senior Notes. See Item 15 — Note 10, *Long-term Debt*, for more information about interest rate swaps of the Company's subsidiaries.

If all of the above swaps had been discontinued on December 31, 2025, the counterparties would have owed the Company $116 million. Based on the credit ratings of the counterparties, the Company believes its exposure to credit risk due to nonperformance by counterparties to its hedge contracts to be insignificant.

The Company has long-term debt instruments that subject it to the risk of loss associated with movements in market interest rates. As of December 31, 2025, a 1% change in interest rates would result in an approximately $6 million change in interest expense on a rolling twelve-month basis.

As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the Company's debt was $8,382 million and the carrying value was $8,676 million. The Company estimates that a 1% decrease in market interest rates would have increased the fair value of its long-term debt by $291 million.

***Liquidity Risk***

Liquidity risk arises from the general funding needs of the Company's activities and in the management of the Company's assets and liabilities.

***Counterparty Credit Risk***

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from non-performance or non-payment by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. The Company monitors and manages credit risk through credit policies that include: (i) an established credit approval process, and (ii) the use of credit mitigation measures such as prepayment arrangements or volumetric limits. Risks surrounding counterparty performance and credit could ultimately impact the amount and timing of expected cash flows. The Company seeks to mitigate counterparty risk by having a diversified portfolio of counterparties. See Item 15 — Note 6, *Fair Value of Financial Instruments*, for more information about concentration of credit risk.

**Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data**

The financial statements and schedules are listed in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K.

**Item 9 — Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure**

As previously reported in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 10, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company dismissed Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. For more information, please refer to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 10, 2024.

**Item 9A — Controls and Procedures**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its principal executive officer, its principal financial officer and its principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2025, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified during the fourth quarter of 2025, as described below.

Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, as of the date of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company's management believes that the audited consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and such financial statements are presented in accordance with GAAP.

**Definition and Inherent Limitations over Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

**Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its principal executive officer, its principal financial officer and its principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 using the criteria described in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

------

Based on the evaluation described above, the Company's management identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting due to ineffective controls over the review of certain calculations of hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) accounting used to allocate net income (loss) to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity partnerships. This material weakness resulted in immaterial errors in the previously issued Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the interim periods within the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which is disclosed in Note 18, *Revision of Previously Issued Unaudited Financial Information (Unaudited)*. Additionally, the material weakness could result in misstatements of the aforementioned account balances that would result in a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. As a result of the material weakness described above, management has concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025.

The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Material Weakness Remediation Plan and Activities**

The Company is committed to addressing the material weakness described above and has begun to implement changes in processes designed to improve its internal control over financial reporting. To remediate the material weakness, the Company has implemented enhancements to its existing controls over the review of HLBV calculations used to allocate net income (loss) to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity arrangements. These enhancements include (i) additional procedures to review the completeness and accuracy of key inputs and the mathematical accuracy of HLBV models during funding periods, (ii) the use of additional review tools to ensure that unique circumstances related to funding periods are reflected accurately and (iii) increased precision in the review of HLBV models, including specific procedures designed to identify and evaluate changes to the models subsequent to their initial setup, as well as additional levels of review for model updates, contract amendments and during funding periods. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company effectively operated the enhanced controls over the review of HLBV calculations.

Although the Company is in the process of remediating the material weakness and believes, based on its evaluation to date, that the material weakness will be remediated in a timely fashion, it cannot provide assurance that this will occur within a specific timeframe. The material weakness will not be remediated until all necessary internal controls have been tested and determined to be operating effectively for a sufficient period of time. In addition, the Company may need to take additional measures to address the material weakness or modify the planned remediation steps.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Other than the identified enhancements discussed in the "Material Weakness Remediation Plan and Activities" section above, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2025, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**Item 9B — Other Information**

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) of the Company adopted, modified or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Clearway Energy, Inc.

***Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Clearway Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of stockholders' equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes and schedule of Clearway Energy, Inc. (Parent) condensed financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for the years then ended and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 appearing under Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company did not maintain, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the COSO because a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting existed as of that date related to ineffective controls over the review of certain calculations of hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) accounting used to allocate net income (loss) to redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity partnerships.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness referred to above is described in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. We considered this material weakness in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2025 consolidated financial statements, and our opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

***Basis for Opinion*s**

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in management's report referred to above. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

------

***Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reportin****g*

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

***Critical Audit Matters***

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

*Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) Calculation of Net Loss Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests and Noncontrolling Interests in Tax Equity Arrangements*

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, certain portions of the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries and noncontrolling interest represent third-party interests in the net assets under tax equity arrangements, which are consolidated by the Company, that have been entered into to finance the cost of facilities eligible for certain tax credits and benefits. Management has determined that the provisions in the contractual agreements of these redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests represent substantive profit-sharing arrangements, for which management uses a balance sheet approach utilizing the hypothetical liquidation at book value, or HLBV, method to calculate the redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest. Under the HLBV method, the amounts reported as redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest represent the amounts the investors to the tax equity arrangements would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet date under the liquidation provisions of the contractual agreements. As disclosed by management, management must apply judgment in determining the methodology for applying the HLBV method and changes in certain factors may have a significant impact on the amounts that an investor would receive upon a hypothetical liquidation. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests was $400 million, of which a majority represents third-party interests in the net assets under tax equity arrangements.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the HLBV calculation of net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity arrangements is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management in applying the HLBV method to determine the income or loss each redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet date under the liquidation provisions of the contractual agreements; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to management's judgments applied in using the HLBV method to calculate the redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity arrangements; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge. As described in the "Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting" section, a material weakness was identified related to this matter.

------

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of the control relating to management's assessment of the accounting model used for tax equity arrangements. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by management and (ii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in (a) evaluating the appropriateness of the HLBV method based on the terms of the contractual agreements and (b) developing independent calculations of the income or loss attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests based on the terms of the contractual agreements and comparing the independent calculations to management's calculations.

(the Company) for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

*Basis for Opinion*

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The FASB ASC is the source of authoritative GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. In addition, the rules and interpretative releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.

------

The consolidated financial statements include the Company's accounts and operations and those of its subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of the majority of the voting interests of an entity. However, a controlling financial interest may also exist through arrangements that do not involve controlling voting interests. As such, the Company applies the guidance of ASC 810, *Consolidations*, to determine when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or not controlled through its voting interests, referred to as a variable interest entity, or VIE, should be consolidated.

***Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash***

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase. Cash and cash equivalents held at subsidiary facilities was $194 million as of both December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **December 31,** | **December 31,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** |
| | **(In millions)** | **(In millions)** |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $231 | $332 |
| Restricted cash | 587 | 401 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows | $818 | $733 |

---

Restricted cash consists primarily of funds held to satisfy the requirements of certain debt agreements and funds held within the Company's facilities that are restricted in their use.

As of December 31, 2025, these restricted funds were comprised of $146 million designated to fund operating expenses, $99 million designated for current debt service payments and $85 million restricted for reserves, including debt service, performance obligations and other reserves as well as capital expenditures. The remaining $257 million is held in distribution reserve accounts, of which $174 million relates to transferable ITCs for the Rosamond South I solar and BESS facility that were received on behalf of the tax equity investor in Rosie South TE Holdco LLC and subsequently distributed to the tax equity investor in January 2026.

As of December 31, 2024, these restricted funds were comprised of $184 million designated to fund operating expenses, $37 million designated for current debt service payments and $102 million restricted for reserves, including debt service, performance obligations and other reserves as well as capital expenditures. The remaining $78 million was held in distribution reserve accounts.

***Supplemental Cash Flow Information***

The following table provides a disaggregation of the amounts classified as Acquisition of Drop Down Assets, net of cash acquired, shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year ended December 31,** | **Year ended December 31,** | **Year ended December 31,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** | **2023** |
| | **(In millions)** | **(In millions)** | **(In millions)** |
| Cash paid to acquire Drop Down Assets | $(329) | $(680) | $(173) |
| Cash acquired from the acquisition of Drop Down Assets | 11 | 2 | 128 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Acquisition of Drop Down Assets, net of cash acquired | $(318) | $(678) | $(45) |

---

***Accounts Receivable — Trade and Allowance for Credit Losses***

Accounts receivable — trade are reported on the consolidated balance sheet at the invoiced amount adjusted for any write-offs and the allowance for credit losses. The majority of the Company's customers typically receive invoices monthly with payment due within 30 days. The allowance for credit losses is reviewed periodically based on amounts past due and their significance. The allowance for credit losses was immaterial as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

------

***Inventory***

Inventory consists of spare parts and is valued at weighted average cost, unless evidence indicates that the weighted average cost will not be recovered with a normal profit in the ordinary course of business. Inventory is removed when used for repairs, maintenance or capital projects.

***Property, Plant and Equipment***

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, however, impairment adjustments are recorded whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Significant additions or improvements extending asset lives are capitalized as incurred, while repairs and maintenance that do not improve or extend the life of the respective asset are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Certain assets and their related accumulated depreciation amounts are adjusted for asset retirements and disposals with the resulting gain or loss included in cost of operations in the consolidated statements of operations. For further discussion of the Company's property, plant and equipment refer to Note 4, *Property, Plant and Equipment*.

Interest incurred on funds borrowed to finance capital projects is capitalized until the project under construction is ready for its intended use. The amount of interest capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $51 million, $28 million and $36 million, respectively.

Construction in-progress represents cumulative construction costs, including the costs incurred for the purchase of major equipment and engineering costs and capitalized interest. Once the project achieves commercial operation, the Company reclassifies the amounts recorded in construction in progress to facilities and equipment.

***Asset Impairments***

Long-lived assets that are held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Such reviews are performed in accordance with ASC 360, *Property, Plant and Equipment*. An impairment loss is indicated if the total future estimated undiscounted cash flows expected from an asset are less than its carrying amount. An impairment charge is measured as the excess of an asset's carrying amount over its fair value with the difference recorded in operating costs and expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Fair values are determined by a variety of valuation methods, including appraisals, sales prices of similar assets and present value techniques. For further discussion of the Company's long-lived asset impairments, refer to Note 9, *Asset Impairments*.

Investments accounted for by the equity method are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 323, *Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures*, which requires that a loss in value of an investment that is an other-than-temporary decline should be recognized. The Company identifies and measures losses in the value of equity method investments based upon a comparison of fair value to carrying value.

***Debt Issuance Costs***

Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized as interest expense on a basis which approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related debt. Debt issuance costs related to the long-term debt are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt. Debt issuance costs related to the senior secured revolving credit facility line of credit are recorded as a non-current asset on the consolidated balance sheet and are amortized over the term of the credit facility.

***Intangible Assets***

Intangible assets represent contractual rights held by the Company. The Company recognizes specifically identifiable intangible assets, including PPAs, leasehold rights, emission allowances, RECs and development rights when specific rights and contracts are acquired. These intangible assets are amortized primarily on a straight-line basis. For further discussion of the Company's intangible assets, refer to Note 8, *Intangible Assets*.

------

***Revenue Recognition***

*Revenue from Contracts with Customers*

The Company applies the guidance in ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers,* or Topic 606, when recognizing revenue associated with its contracts with customers. The Company's policies with respect to its various revenue streams are detailed below. In general, the Company applies the invoicing practical expedient to recognize revenue for the revenue streams detailed below, except in circumstances where the invoiced amount does not represent the value transferred to the customer.

*Flexible Generation Segment Revenues*

The majority of the facilities in the Flexible Generation segment commenced merchant operations during 2023 following the expiration of the PPAs. These facilities generate revenues from selling electricity and/or RA to the CAISO and to public utility and load serving entities, as the power is delivered at the interconnection point.

*Power Purchase Agreements, or PPAs*

The majority of the Company's revenues are obtained through PPAs or similar contractual agreements. Energy, capacity and, where applicable, renewable attributes, from the majority of the Company's renewable energy assets and certain facilities in the Flexible Generation segment are sold through long-term PPAs and tolling agreements to a single counterparty, which is often a utility or commercial customer. Certain revenue agreements also provide for the sale of BESS capacity. As discussed above, the majority of the facilities in the Flexible Generation segment commenced merchant operations during 2023 following the expiration of the PPAs. The majority of these PPAs are accounted for as operating leases as the Company retained its historical lease assessments and classification upon adoption of ASC 842, *Leases*. ASC 842 requires the minimum lease payments received to be amortized over the term of the lease and contingent rentals are recorded when the achievement of the contingency becomes probable. The Company's BESS arrangements include variable payments not based on an index or rate and sales-type lease treatment would result in a loss at lease commencement. As a result, the Company accounts for these arrangements as operating leases under ASC 842. Judgment is required by management in determining the economic life of each generating facility, in evaluating whether certain lease provisions constitute minimum payments or represent contingent rent and other factors in determining whether a contract contains a lease and whether the lease is an operating lease or finance lease.

Certain of these PPAs have no minimum lease payments and all of the lease revenue under these PPAs is recorded as contingent rent on an actual basis when the electricity is delivered. The contingent lease revenue recognized in the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $797 million, $831 million and $780 million, respectively. See Note 17, *Leases,* for additional information related to the Company's PPAs accounted for as leases.

*Renewable Energy Credits, or RECs*

Renewable energy credits, or RECs, are usually sold through long-term PPAs or through REC contracts with counterparties. Revenue from the sale of self-generated RECs is recognized when the related energy is generated and simultaneously delivered even in cases where there is a certification lag as it has been deemed to be perfunctory.

In a bundled contract to sell energy, capacity and/or self-generated RECs, all performance obligations are deemed to be delivered at the same time and hence, timing of recognition of revenue for all performance obligations is the same and occurs over time. In such cases, it is unnecessary to allocate transaction price to multiple performance obligations.

*Disaggregated Revenues*

The following tables represent the Company's disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers, along with the reportable segment for each category:

---

| | | | |

------

*Contract Amortization*

Assets and liabilities recognized from power sales agreements assumed through acquisitions relating to the sale of electric capacity and energy in future periods arising from differences in contract and market prices are amortized to revenue over the term of each underlying contract based on actual generation and/or contracted volumes or on a straight-line basis, where applicable.

*Contract Balances*

The following table reflects the contract assets included on the Company's consolidated balance sheets:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **(In millions)** | **December 31, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Accounts receivable, net - Contracts with customers | $76 | $75 |
| Accounts receivable, net - Leases | 86 | 89 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total accounts receivable, net | $162 | $164 |

---

***Derivative Financial Instruments***

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments under ASC 815, *Derivatives and Hedging*, or ASC 815, which requires the Company to record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value unless they qualify for a NPNS exception. Changes in the fair value of non-hedge derivatives are immediately recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as hedges, if elected for hedge accounting, are deferred and recorded as a component of accumulated OCI/OCL until the hedged transactions occur and are recognized in earnings.

The Company's primary derivative financial instruments are interest rate instruments used to mitigate variability in earnings due to fluctuations in interest rates and energy-related instruments used to mitigate variability in earnings due to fluctuations in power market prices or natural gas market prices. Certain derivative contracts contain provisions providing the counterparties a lien on specific assets as collateral. On an ongoing basis, the Company qualitatively assesses the effectiveness of its derivatives that are designated as hedges for accounting purposes in order to determine that each derivative continues to be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items. If necessary, the Company will perform an analysis to measure the statistical correlation between the derivative and the associated hedged item to determine the effectiveness of such a contract designated as a hedge. The Company will discontinue hedge accounting if it is determined that the hedge is no longer effective. In this case, the gain or loss previously deferred in accumulated OCI/OCL would be frozen until the underlying hedged item is delivered unless the transaction being hedged is no longer probable of occurring in which case the amount in accumulated OCI/OCL would be immediately reclassified into earnings. If the derivative financial instrument is terminated, the effective portion of this derivative deferred in accumulated OCI/OCL will be frozen until the underlying hedged item is delivered.

Revenues and expenses on contracts that qualify for the NPNS exception are recognized when the underlying physical transaction is delivered. While these contracts are considered derivative financial instruments under ASC 815, they are not recorded at fair value, but on an accrual basis of accounting. If it is determined that a transaction designated as NPNS no longer meets the scope exception, the fair value of the related contract is recorded on the balance sheet and immediately recognized through earnings.

Cash flows from derivative financial instruments, including derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges, are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

***Concentrations of Credit Risk***

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable — trade and derivative financial instruments, which are concentrated within entities engaged in the energy and financial industries. These industry concentrations may impact the overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that the customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic, industry or other conditions. In addition, many of the Company's facilities have only one customer. See Note 6, *Fair Value of Financial Instruments,* for a further discussion of derivative concentrations and Note 13, *Segment Reporting*, for concentration of counterparties.

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable — trade, accounts receivable — affiliates, accounts payable — trade, accounts payable — affiliates and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. See Note 6, *Fair Value of Financial Instruments,* for a further discussion of fair value of financial instruments.

------

***Asset Retirement Obligations***

Asset retirement obligations, or AROs, are accounted for in accordance with ASC 410-20, *Asset Retirement Obligations,* or ASC 410-20. Retirement obligations associated with long-lived assets included within the scope of ASC 410-20 are those for which a legal obligation exists under enacted laws, statutes, and written or oral contracts, including obligations arising under the doctrine of promissory estoppel, and for which the timing and/or method of settlement may be conditional on a future event. ASC 410-20 requires an entity to recognize the fair value of a liability for an ARO in the period in which it is incurred and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made.

Upon initial recognition of a liability for an ARO, other than when an ARO is assumed in an acquisition of the related long-lived asset, the asset retirement cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset by the same amount. Over time, the liability is accreted to its future value, while the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company's AROs are primarily related to the future dismantlement of equipment on leased property and environmental obligations related to site closures and fuel storage facilities. The Company records AROs as part of other non-current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet.

The following table represents the balance of AROs, along with the related activity:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **(In millions)** | |
| **Balance as of December 31, 2023** | $239 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revisions in estimated cash flows | (1) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liabilities incurred | 14 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liabilities settled | (2) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accretion expense | 16 |
| **Balance as of December 31, 2024** | 266 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revisions in estimated cash flows | 7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liabilities incurred | 38 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liabilities settled | (5) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accretion expense | 18 |
| **Balance as of December 31, 2025** | $324 |

---

***Guarantees***

The Company enters into various contracts that include indemnification and guarantee provisions as a routine part of its business activities. Examples of these contracts include operation and maintenance agreements, service agreements, commercial sales arrangements and other types of contractual agreements with vendors and other third parties as well as affiliates. These contracts generally indemnify the counterparty for tax, environmental liability, litigation and other matters as well as breaches of representations, warranties and covenants set forth in these agreements. Because many of the guarantees and indemnities the Company issues to third parties and affiliates do not limit the amount or duration of its obligations to perform under them, there exists a risk that the Company may have obligations in excess of the amounts agreed upon in the contracts mentioned above. For those guarantees and indemnities that do not limit the liability exposure, the Company may not be able to estimate what the liability would be, until a claim is made for payment or performance, due to the contingent nature of these contracts.

***Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method***

The Company has investments in various energy facilities accounted for by the equity method, several of which are VIEs, where the Company is not a primary beneficiary, as described in Note 5, *Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method and Variable Interest Entities*. The equity method of accounting is applied to these investments in affiliates because the ownership structure prevents the Company from exercising a controlling influence over the operating and financial policies of the facilities. Under this method, equity in pre-tax income or losses of the investments is reflected as equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Distributions from equity method investments that represent earnings on the Company's investment are included within cash flows from operating activities and distributions from equity method investments that represent a return of the Company's investment are included within cash flows from investing activities.

------

***Sale-Leaseback Arrangements***

The Company is party to sale-leaseback arrangements that provide for the sale of certain assets to a third-party and simultaneous leaseback to the Company. In accordance with ASC 842-40, *Sale-Leaseback Transactions*, if the seller-lessee retains, through the leaseback, substantially all of the benefits and risks incident to the ownership of the property sold, the sale-leaseback transaction is accounted for as a financing arrangement. An example of this type of continuing involvement would include an option to repurchase the assets or the buyer-lessor having the option to sell the assets back to the Company. This provision is included in most of the Company's sale-leaseback arrangements. As such, the Company accounts for these arrangements as financings.

Under the financing method, the Company does not recognize as income any of the sale proceeds received from the lessor that contractually constitutes payment to acquire the assets subject to these arrangements. Instead, the sale proceeds received are accounted for as financing obligations and leaseback payments made by the Company are allocated between interest expense and a reduction to the financing obligation. Interest on the financing obligation is calculated using the Company's incremental borrowing rate at the inception of the arrangement on the outstanding financing obligation. Judgment is required to determine the appropriate borrowing rate for the arrangement and in determining any gain or loss on the transaction that would be recorded either at the end of or over the lease term.

***Income Taxes***

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with ASC 740, *Income Taxes*, or ASC 740, which requires that the Company use the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes and provide deferred income taxes for all significant temporary differences.

The Company has two categories of income tax expense or benefit — current and deferred, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Current income tax expense or benefit consists solely of current taxes payable less applicable tax credits, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Deferred income tax expense or benefit is the change in the net deferred income tax asset or liability, excluding amounts charged or credited to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The Company reports some of its revenues and expenses differently for financial statement purposes than for income tax return purposes, resulting in temporary and permanent differences between the Company's financial statements and income tax returns. The tax effects of such temporary differences are recorded as either deferred income tax assets or deferred income tax liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company measures its deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities using income tax rates that are currently in effect. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income which includes the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences to realize deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances. In arriving at this conclusion to utilize projections of future profit before tax in its estimate of future taxable income, the Company considered the profit before tax generated in recent years. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized.

The Company, through its consolidated subsidiaries, may earn tax credits in the ordinary course of business, which may be eligible for a transferability election permitting the Company to sell the tax credit to a third party. These tax credits, which are accounted for in accordance with ASC 740, include production tax credits, or PTCs, which are based on electricity generated by an operating facility, and investment tax credits, or ITCs, which are earned based on eligible costs to place an asset in service. The Company accounts for PTCs as electricity is generated and sold and records transferable PTCs as reduction to current income taxes. The Company records ITCs when generated as a deferred tax asset and other non-current liability. The Company reduces the deferred tax asset when the credit is sold and then reduces the other non-current liability ratably as a reduction to income tax expense over the depreciable life of the related property, plant and equipment. For further discussion, see Note 14, *Income Taxes*.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, which applies to all tax positions related to income taxes. Under ASC 740, tax benefits are recognized when it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the authorities. The benefit recognized from a position that has surpassed the more-likely-than-not threshold is the largest amount of benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon settlement.

In accordance with ASC 740 and as discussed further in Note 14, *Income Taxes*, changes to existing net deferred tax assets, valuation allowances, or changes to uncertain tax benefits, are recorded to income tax expense.

------

***Asset Acquisitions***

The Company accounts for its acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, *Business Combinations,* or ASC 805. For third-party acquisitions, ASC 805 requires an acquirer to recognize and measure in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at fair value at the acquisition date. No goodwill is recognized, and excess purchase price or negative goodwill are allocated to the acquired assets on a relative fair value basis. For acquisitions that relate to entities under common control, the difference between the cash paid and historical value of the entities' equity is recorded as a distribution/contribution from/to CEG with the offset to noncontrolling interest.

***Tax Equity Arrangements***

Certain portions of the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries and noncontrolling interest represent third-party interests in the net assets under tax equity arrangements, which are consolidated by the Company, that have been entered into to finance the cost of facilities eligible for certain tax credits and benefits. The Company has determined that the provisions in the contractual agreements of these redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests represent substantive profit sharing arrangements. Further, the Company has determined that the appropriate methodology for calculating the redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest that reflects the substantive profit sharing arrangements is a balance sheet approach utilizing the hypothetical liquidation at book value, or HLBV, method. Under the HLBV method, the amounts reported as redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest represent the amounts the investors to the tax equity arrangements would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet date under the liquidation provisions of the contractual agreements, assuming the net assets of the funding structures were liquidated at their recorded amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. The investors' interests in the results of operations of the funding structures are determined as the difference in redeemable noncontrolling interest and noncontrolling interest at the start and end of each reporting period, after taking into account any capital transactions between the structures and the funds' investors. The calculations utilized to apply the HLBV method include estimated calculations of taxable income or losses for each reporting period. In addition, in certain circumstances, the Company and its partners in the tax equity arrangements agree that certain tax benefits are to be utilized outside of the tax equity arrangements, which may result in differences in the amount an investor would hypothetically receive at the initial balance sheet date calculated strictly in accordance with related contractual agreements. These differences are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations using a systematic and rational method over the period during which the investor is expected to achieve its target return.

***Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest***

To the extent that a third party has the right to redeem their interests for cash or other assets, the Company has included the noncontrolling interest attributable to the third party as a component of temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the consolidated balance sheet. In 2025, the Company entered into new tax equity arrangements that provide third parties with the right to redeem their interests in the partnerships for cash or other assets at a point in time, as further described in Note 5, *Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method and Variable Interest Entities*. The following table reflects the changes in the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interest balance:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **(In millions)** |
| **Balance at December 31, 2023** | $1 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests | (2) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comprehensive income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests | 13 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Repurchase of redeemable noncontrolling interest | (12) |
| **Balance at December 31, 2024** |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash contributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests, net of distributions | 335 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-cash distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests | (12) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comprehensive loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests | (220) |
| **Balance at December 31, 2025** | $103 |

---

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. They also impact the reported amounts of net earnings during the reporting periods. Actual results could be different from these estimates.

------

In recording transactions and balances resulting from business operations, the Company uses estimates based on the best information available. Estimates are used for such items as plant depreciable lives, tax provisions, uncollectible accounts, AROs, acquisition accounting, fair value of financial instruments and legal costs incurred in connection with recorded loss contingencies, among others. In addition, estimates are used to test long-lived assets for impairment and to determine the fair value of impaired assets. As better information becomes available or actual amounts are determinable, the recorded estimates are revised. Consequently, operating results can be affected by revisions to prior accounting estimates.

**Note 3 — Acquisitions and Dispositions**

***Acquisitions***

As further described in Note 2, *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, the Company records the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition-date fair value, except in the case of acquisitions under common control by CEG, for which assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at historical cost on the acquisition date, which, in certain circumstances, represent the acquired cost.

The fair value of property, plant and equipment for the Company's third-party acquisition of Tuolumne was determined primarily based on an income method using discounted cash flows and validated using a cost approach based on the replacement cost of the assets less economic depreciation. This methodology was utilized as the forecasted cash flows incorporate specific attributes including age, useful life, equipment condition and technology. The fair value of intangible assets for power purchase agreements related to the Company's third-party acquisitions of Tuolumne and Catalina were determined utilizing a variation of the income approach determined by discounting the replacement market price of the incremental cash flows associated with the contract to present value. Primary assumptions utilized included estimates of generation, contractual prices, operating expenses and the weighted average cost of capital reflective of a market participant. These assumptions are considered to be a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820, as they utilize inputs that are not observable in the market.

Storm, a 264 MW wind facility located in Grant County, West Virginia, to Clearway Renew for $152 million in cash consideration in order for Clearway Renew to repower the facility. The repowering of the facility is expected to increase the facility's capacity to 335 MW.

**Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments** 

***Fair Value Accounting under ASC 820***

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1—quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2—inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3—unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

In accordance with ASC 820, the Company determines the level in the fair value hierarchy within which each fair value measurement in its entirety falls, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable — trade, accounts receivable — affiliates, accounts payable — trade, accounts payable — affiliates and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company's recorded financial instrument not carried at fair market value or that does not approximate fair value is as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31, 2025** | **As of December 31, 2025** | **As of December 31, 2024** | **As of December 31, 2024** |
| | **Carrying Amount** | **Fair Value** | **Carrying Amount** | **Fair Value** |

| **Liabilities:** | | | | |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Long-term debt, including current portion <sup>(a)</sup> | $8676 | $8382 | $7237 | $6715 |

---

<sup>(a)</sup> Excludes net debt issuance costs, which are recorded as a reduction to long-term debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

------

The fair value of the Company's publicly-traded long-term debt is based on quoted market prices and is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of debt securities, non-publicly traded long-term debt and certain notes receivable of the Company are based on expected future cash flows discounted at market interest rates, or current interest rates for similar instruments with equivalent credit quality and are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the level within the fair value hierarchy for long-term debt, including current portion:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31, 2025** | **As of December 31, 2025** | **As of December 31, 2024** | **As of December 31, 2024** |

***Derivative and Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements***

The Company's contracts are non-exchange-traded and valued using prices provided by external sources. The Company uses quoted observable forward prices to value its energy-related commodity contracts, which includes long-term power commodity contracts and heat rate call option contracts. To the extent that observable forward prices are not available, the quoted prices reflect the average of the forward prices from the prior year, adjusted for inflation. As of December 31, 2025, contracts valued with prices provided by models and other valuation techniques make up 8% of derivative assets, 93% of derivative liabilities and 100% of other financial instruments.

The Company's significant positions classified as Level 3 relate to physical and financial energy-related contracts, including long-term power commodity contracts and heat rate call option contracts executed in illiquid markets. The significant unobservable inputs used in developing fair value include illiquid power tenors and location pricing, which is derived by extrapolating pricing as a basis to liquid locations. The tenor pricing and basis spread are based on observable market data when available or derived from historic prices and forward market prices from similar observable markets when not available.

The following tables quantify the significant unobservable inputs used in developing the fair value of the Company's Level 3 positions:

---

The fair value of each contract is discounted using a risk-free interest rate. In addition, a credit reserve is applied to reflect credit risk, which is, for interest rate swaps, calculated based on credit default swaps using the bilateral method. For commodities, to the extent that the Net Exposure under a specific master agreement is an asset, the Company uses the counterparty's default swap rate. If the Net Exposure under a specific master agreement is a liability, the Company uses a proxy of its own default swap rate. For interest rate swaps and commodities, the credit reserve is added to the discounted fair value to reflect the exit price that a market participant would be willing to receive to assume the liabilities or that a market participant would be willing to pay for the assets. As of December 31, 2025, the non-performance reserve was a $16 million gain recorded primarily to total operating revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. It is possible that future market prices could vary from those used in recording assets and liabilities and such variations could be material.

***Concentration of Credit Risk***

In addition to the credit risk discussion as disclosed in Note 2, *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, the following item is a discussion of the concentration of credit risk for the Company's financial instruments. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from non-performance or non-payment by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. The Company monitors and manages credit risk through credit policies that include: (i) an established credit approval process; (ii) monitoring of counterparties' credit limits on as needed basis; (iii) as applicable, the use of credit mitigation measures such as margin, collateral, prepayment arrangements, or volumetric limits; (iv) the use of payment netting agreements; and (v) the use of master netting agreements that allow for the netting of positive and negative exposures of various contracts associated with a single counterparty. Risks surrounding counterparty performance and credit could ultimately impact the amount and timing of expected cash flows. The Company seeks to mitigate counterparty risk by having a diversified portfolio of counterparties.

Counterparty credit exposure includes credit risk exposure under certain long-term agreements, including solar and other PPAs. As external sources or observable market quotes are not available to estimate such exposure, the Company estimates the exposure related to these contracts based on various techniques including, but not limited to, internal models based on a fundamental analysis of the market and extrapolation of observable market data with similar characteristics. A significant portion of these energy-related commodity contracts are with utilities with strong credit quality and public utility commission or other regulatory support. However, such regulated utility counterparties can be impacted by changes in government regulations or adverse financial conditions, which the Company is unable to predict. Certain subsidiaries of the Company sell the output of their facilities to PG&E, a significant counterparty of the Company, under long-term PPAs, and PG&E's credit rating is below investment-grade.

**Note 7 — Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities** 

ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and to measure them at fair value each reporting period unless they qualify for a NPNS exception. The Company may elect to designate certain derivatives as cash flow hedges, if certain conditions are met, and defer the change in fair value of the derivatives to accumulated OCI/OCL, until the hedged transactions occur and are recognized in earnings. For derivatives that are not designated as cash flow hedges or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the changes in the fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Certain derivative instruments may qualify for the NPNS exception and are therefore exempt from fair value accounting treatment. ASC 815 applies to the Company's energy-related commodity contracts and interest rate swaps.

------

***Interest Rate Swaps***

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge the variability of expected future cash interest payments that may arise in connection with its non-recourse debt or a potential refinancing of its Senior Notes. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had interest rate derivative instruments extending through 2033, a portion of which were designated as cash flow hedges. Under the interest rate swap agreements, the Company pays a fixed rate and the counterparties to the agreements pay a variable interest rate.

***Energy-Related Commodity Contracts***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had energy-related derivative instruments extending through 2033. At December 31, 2025, these contracts were not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges.

**Note 8 — Intangible Assets** 

*Intangible Assets* — The Company's intangible assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily reflect intangible assets established from its business acquisitions and are comprised of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*• PPAs* — Established predominantly with the acquisitions of the Alta Wind Portfolio, Tapestry, Laredo Ridge, Carlsbad Energy Center, Agua Caliente, the Utah Solar Portfolio, the Capistrano Wind Portfolio, Tuolumne and Catalina. These represent the fair value of the PPAs acquired. These are amortized on a straight-line basis, over the term of the PPA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Leasehold Rights* — Established with the acquisition of the Alta Wind Portfolio, this represents the fair value of contractual rights to receive royalty payments equal to a percentage of PPA revenue from certain facilities. These are amortized as a reduction to operating revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the PPAs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Emission Allowances* — These intangibles primarily consist of SO2 and NOx emission allowances established with the El Segundo, Walnut Creek and Carlsbad Energy Center acquisitions. These emission allowances are held-for-use and are amortized to cost of operations, with NOx allowances amortized on a straight-line basis and SO2 allowances amortized based on units of production.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Other* — Consists of a) the acquisition date fair value of the contractual rights to a ground lease for South Trent and to utilize certain interconnection facilities for Blythe as well as land rights acquired in connection with the acquisition of Elbow Creek; b) development rights related to certain solar business acquisitions; c) purchased software for certain solar facilities; d) RECs acquired in connection with the acquisition of the Utah Solar Portfolio; and e) favorable land leases acquired in connection with the acquisition of the Utah Solar Portfolio.

The following tables summarize the components of intangible assets subject to amortization:

**Note 9 — Asset Impairments**

***2023 Impairment Losses***

During the fourth quarter of 2023, in preparation and review of its annual budget, the Company updated its long-term estimates of operating and capital expenditures and revised its assessment of long-term merchant power prices, which was primarily informed by present conditions and did not contemplate future policy changes, which could impact renewable energy power prices. The impairment analysis reviews certain qualitative factors as well as the results of long-term operating expectations and its carrying value to determine if impairment indicators are present. The impairment analysis indicated that the projected future cash flows for certain facilities within the Renewables & Storage segment no longer supported the recoverability of the carrying value of the related long-lived assets. As such, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $12 million, which primarily related to property, plant, and equipment to reflect the assets at fair market value. The fair value of the facilities was determined using an income approach by applying a discounted cash flow methodology to the updated long-term budgets for each respective plant. The income approach included key inputs such as forecasted merchant power prices, operations and maintenance expense, and discount rates. The resulting fair value is a Level 3 fair value measurement.

**Note 10 — Long-term Debt**

The Company's borrowings, including short-term and long-term portions, consisted of the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| Add premiums <sup>(d)</sup> |  | 2 | 2 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total long-term debt |  | $7898 | $6750 |  |

---

<sup>(a)</sup> As of December 31, 2025, S+ equals SOFR plus x%.

<sup>(b)</sup> Applicable rate is determined by the borrower leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, and only applies to outstanding borrowings.

<sup>(c)</sup> During January 2026, the Company repaid all of the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility utilizing the proceeds from the sale of the 2034 Senior Notes, as further described below.

<sup>(d)</sup> Premiums relate to the 2028 Senior Notes.

The financing arrangements listed above contain certain covenants, including financial covenants that the Company is required to be in compliance with during the term of each respective arrangement. Under the facility-level financing arrangements, each facility is permitted to pay distributions out of available cash as long as certain conditions are satisfied, including that no default under the applicable arrangements has occurred and that each facility is otherwise in compliance with all relevant conditions under the financing agreements, including meeting required financial ratios, where applicable. The Company's facility-level financing arrangements are non-recourse to the Company, thus, each facility pledges its underlying assets as collateral, and if a facility is in default under its financing arrangement, then the related lender could demand repayment of the facility's obligations or enforce its security interests with respect to the pledged collateral.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $1,063 million in letters of credit outstanding, $96 million of which is related to the Company's revolving credit facility. Also as of December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all of the required covenants.

***2034 Senior Notes***

On January 13, 2026, Clearway Energy Operating LLC completed the sale of $600 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2034, or the 2034 Senior Notes. The 2034 Senior Notes bear interest at 5.750% and mature on January 15, 2034. Interest on the 2034 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2026. The 2034 Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of Clearway Energy Operating LLC and are guaranteed by Clearway Energy LLC and by certain of Clearway Energy Operating LLC's wholly-owned current and future subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2034 Senior Notes were used to repay $361 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

***Facility-level Debt***

*Deriva Solar Portfolio*

On February 5, 2026, in order to partially fund the third-party acquisition of the Deriva Solar Portfolio, which is expected to close in the first half of 2026, the Company, through its indirect subsidiary, Cardinal Investment Holdco LLC, entered into a financing agreement that provides for a term loan of up to $100 million and $119 million in letters of credit in support of debt service and facility obligations. The financing will be supported by the Company's interest in the Deriva Solar Portfolio upon closing of the acquisition.

<sup>(a)</sup> On December 6, 2023, the Company executed an agreement with a third party to sell the PTCs generated by the Alta X and Alta XI wind facilities, which resulted in a $14 million income tax benefit (reduction to income tax expense) during the year ended December 31, 2023.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the overall effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the allocation of taxable earnings and losses based on the partners' interest in Clearway Energy LLC, which includes the effects of applying the HLBV method of accounting for book purposes for certain partnerships.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the overall effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the allocation of taxable earnings and losses based on the partners' interest in Clearway Energy LLC, which includes the effects of applying the HLBV method of accounting for book purposes for certain partnerships, partially offset by the impact of PTCs generated.

For tax purposes, Clearway Energy LLC is treated as a partnership; therefore, the Company and CEG each record their respective share of taxable income or loss.

The temporary differences, which gave rise to the Company's deferred tax balances consisted of the following:

***Tax Receivable***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a $5 million tax receivable.

------

***Deferred Tax Balances and Valuation Allowance***

*Net deferred tax balances* — As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset of $127 million and a net deferred tax liability of $89 million, respectively. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income, which includes the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences to realize deferred tax assets. The Company considered the profit before tax generated in recent years as well as projections of future earnings and estimates of taxable income in arriving at this conclusion. The Company believes that $4 million of existing state NOLs, based on forecasted future earnings and estimated taxable income, will expire unutilized, resulting in the recording of a valuation allowance.

*NOL and Tax Credit carryforwards* — As of December 31, 2025, the Company had tax-effected domestic NOL carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $44 million. Additionally, the Company has a cumulative tax-effected state NOL carryforward of $7 million, which will expire between 2026 and 2042 if unutilized. In addition, the Company has PTC and ITC carryforward balances totaling $18 million, which will expire between 2036 and 2045 if unutilized.

***Tax Credits***

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's accumulated deferred ITCs are $289 million, including $283 million, which is net of a $21 million valuation allowance, subject to credit transferability and included in other non-current liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received $3 million from the transfer of PTCs and ITCs. In January 2026, the Company received $282 million in cash proceeds from the sale of ITCs earned by the Pine Forest facility to third parties pursuant to tax credit transfer agreements, as further described in Note 10, *Long-term Debt*.

***Income Tax Payments, Net of Refunds***

During each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company paid $1 million in federal income taxes. Additionally, the amount paid in state income taxes, net of refunds received, was immaterial for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***Unrecognized Tax Benefits***

The Company has unrecognized tax benefits with an after-tax value of $19 million and zero as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase is due to seeking state income tax refunds with respect to prior year tax returns. If recognized, the position would impact the effective tax rate. No material interest or penalties have been recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The following table summarizes the Company's unrecognized tax benefits activity:

---

|:---|:---|
| **(In millions)** | |

***Goat Mountain Development Services Agreement with Clearway Renew***

On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into a development services agreement with Clearway Renew under which Clearway Renew will provide pre-construction development, construction management and asset management services in connection with the repowering of the Goat Mountain wind facility, which is located in Sterling City, Texas. Contingent upon achieving repowering commercial operations in 2027, the 306 MW facility will sell power to an investment-grade counterparty under a new 15-year PPA. In connection with the agreement, on December 12, 2025, the Company paid Clearway Renew $27 million, of which $25 million is related to the future delivery of equipment and is included in other non-current assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, and $2 million is related to capital expenditures.

***O&M Services Agreements by and between the Company and Clearway Renewable Operation & Maintenance LLC***

Various wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company in the Renewables & Storage segment are party to services agreements with Clearway Renewable Operation & Maintenance LLC, or RENOM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CEG, which provides operation and maintenance, or O&M, services to these subsidiaries. The Company incurred total expenses for these services of $82 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and $73 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in cost of operations in the consolidated statements of operations. There was a balance of $8 million and $12 million due to RENOM as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Administrative Services Agreements by and between the Company and CEG***

Various wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company are parties to services agreements with Clearway Asset Services LLC and Clearway Solar Asset Management LLC, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of CEG, which provide various administrative services to the Company's subsidiaries. The Company incurred expenses under these agreements of $26 million, $22 million and $20 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, included in cost of operations in the consolidated statements of operations. There was a balance of $3 million due to CEG as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***CEG Master Services Agreement***

The Company, along with certain of its subsidiaries, is a party to the CEG Master Services Agreement, pursuant to which CEG and certain of its affiliates or third-party service providers provide certain services to the Company, including operational and administrative services, which include human resources, information systems, cybersecurity, external affairs, accounting, procurement and risk management services, and, effective on January 1, 2025, accounting, internal audit, tax, legal and treasury services, in exchange for the payment of fees in respect of such services. Until January 1, 2025, the Company provided certain services to CEG under a separate Master Services Agreement, including accounting, internal audit, tax and treasury services, in exchange for the payment of fees in respect of such services. Effective January 1, 2025, the Company directly bears all labor costs for certain employees of CEG who perform work on behalf of the Company.

The Company incurred net expenses under the CEG Master Services Agreement of $24 million, $6 million and $5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, included in general and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations. There was a balance of zero and $5 million due to CEG as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Note 16 — Contingencies** 

The Company records reserves for estimated losses from contingencies when information available indicates that a loss is probable and the amount of the loss, or range of loss, can be reasonably estimated. As applicable, the Company will establish an adequate reserve for ongoing legal matters. In addition, legal costs are expensed as incurred. Management assesses such matters based on current information and makes a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of ongoing legal proceedings or reasonably estimate the scope or amount of any associated costs and potential liabilities. As additional information becomes available, management adjusts its assessment and estimate of contingencies accordingly. Because litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings or developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of the Company's liabilities and contingencies could be at amounts that are different from its currently recorded reserves and that such difference could be material.

The Company and its subsidiaries are party to litigation or legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In management's opinion, the disposition of these ordinary course matters will not materially adversely affect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

------

**Note 17 — Leases**

***Accounting for Leases***

The Company evaluates each arrangement at inception to determine if it contains a lease. Substantially all of the Company's leases are operating leases.

***Lessee***

The Company records its operating lease liabilities at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term at lease commencement date. Lease payments include fixed payment amounts as well as variable rate payments based on an index initially measured at lease commencement date. Variable payments, including payments based on future performance and based on index changes, are recorded when the expense is probable. The Company determines the relevant lease term by evaluating whether renewal and termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to calculate the present value of the lease payments, based on information available at the lease commencement date.

The Company's leases consist of land leases for numerous operating asset locations, real estate leases and equipment leases. The terms and conditions for these leases vary by the type of underlying asset. Certain of these leases have both lease and non-lease components and the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate these components.

Lease expense was comprised of the following:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
| **(In millions)** | **2025** | **2024** | **2023** |

***Lessor***

The majority of the Company's revenue is obtained through PPAs or other contractual agreements that are accounted for as leases. These leases are comprised of both fixed payments and variable payments contingent upon volumes or performance metrics. Many of the leases have renewal options at the end of the lease term. Termination may be allowed under specific circumstances in the lease arrangements, such as under an event of default. All but one of the Company's active leases are operating leases. This sales-type lease is further described below. Certain of these operating leases have both lease and non-lease components, and the Company allocates the transaction price to the components based on standalone selling prices.

**Note 18 — Revision of Previously Issued Unaudited Financial Information (Unaudited)** 

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company's management identified errors related to certain calculations of hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) accounting used to allocate net income (loss) to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in tax equity partnerships in each of the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025. The Company evaluated the materiality of the errors in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletins No. 99 and No. 108 of the SEC and concluded that the errors were immaterial to all previously reported periods and did not require restatement of any previously issued financial statements.

------

The corrections had no impact on the Company's consolidated net income (loss) or its consolidated statements of cash flows contained in the Company's previously issued Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025. The Company will revise prior period financial information, including the corresponding notes to the financial statements, related to the errors contained in its previously issued Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the next time the respective periods are presented.

Each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to one vote with respect to each matter presented to Clearway Inc.'s stockholders on which the holders of Class A common stock are entitled to vote. Holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock vote together as a single class on all matters presented to Clearway Inc.'s stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law or the listing requirements of any exchange on which shares of Clearway Inc.'s common stock are listed. Holders of Class A common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Except in respect of matters relating to the election and removal of directors on the Board of Directors and as otherwise provided in Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or required by law, all matters to be voted on by holders of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock must be approved by a majority, on a combined basis, of such shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. In the case of election of directors, all matters to be voted on by Clearway Inc.'s stockholders must be approved by a plurality of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of common stock on a combined basis.

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, the holders of Clearway Inc.'s outstanding shares of Class A common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds. Dividends upon shares of the Class A common stock may be declared by the Board of Directors at any regular or special meeting, and may be paid in cash, in property or in shares of capital stock. The holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock will share ratably in all dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors in respect of the outstanding common stock. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any of Clearway Inc.'s funds available for dividends, such sums as the Board of Directors deems proper as reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any of Clearway Inc.'s property or for any proper purpose, and the Board of Directors may modify or abolish any such reserve. Furthermore, because Clearway Inc. is a holding company, its ability to pay dividends on the Class A common stock is limited by restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Clearway Inc., including restrictions under the terms of the agreements governing its indebtedness.

***Liquidation Rights***

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Clearway Inc.'s affairs, holders of shares of Class A common stock would be entitled to share ratably in Clearway Inc.'s assets that are legally available for distribution to stockholders after payment of its debts and other liabilities and the liquidation preference of any of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, subject only to the right of the holders of shares of Class B common stock and Class D common stock to receive payment for the par value of their shares in connection with Clearway Inc.'s liquidation.

***Other Rights***

Holders of shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock have no preemptive, conversion or other rights to subscribe for additional shares.

***Dividend and Liquidation Rights***

Holders of shares of Class B common stock do not have any right to receive dividends, other than dividends payable solely in shares of Class B common stock in the event of payment of a dividend in shares of common stock payable to holders of Class A common stock and Class C common stock, or to receive a distribution upon liquidation or winding up except for their right to receive payment for the par value of their shares of Class B common stock in connection with Clearway Inc.'s liquidation.

***Mandatory Redemption***

Shares of Class B common stock are subject to redemption at a price per share equal to par value upon the conversion of Class B units of Clearway LLC to Class A units of Clearway LLC. Shares of Class B common stock so redeemed are automatically cancelled and are not available to be reissued.

**Class C Common Stock**

***Voting Rights***

Each share of Class C common stock entitles the holder to 1/100th of one vote with respect to each matter presented to Clearway Inc.'s stockholders on which the holders of Class C common stock are entitled to vote. Holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock vote together as a single class on all matters presented to stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law or the listing requirements of any exchange on which shares of Clearway Inc.'s common stock are listed.

Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any of Clearway Inc.'s funds available for dividends, such sums as the Board of Directors deems proper as reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any of Clearway Inc.'s property or for any proper purpose, and the Board of Directors may modify or abolish any such reserve. Furthermore, because Clearway Inc. is a holding company, its ability to pay dividends on shares of Class C common stock is limited by restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Clearway Inc., including restrictions under the terms of the agreements governing its indebtedness.

***Liquidation Rights***

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Clearway Inc.'s affairs, holders of shares of Class C common stock would be entitled to share ratably in Clearway Inc.'s assets that are legally available for distribution to stockholders after payment of its debts and other liabilities and the liquidation preference of any of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, subject only to the right of the holders of shares of Class B common stock and Class D common stock to receive payment for the par value of their shares in connection with Clearway Inc.'s liquidation.

***Equal Status***

Except as expressly provided in Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, including with respect to voting rights, shares of Class C common stock have the same rights and privileges and rank equally, share ratably and are identical in all respects to the shares of Class A common stock as to all matters, including in the event of a liquidation or in connection with a change of control. In the event of any merger, consolidation, or other business combination requiring the approval of Clearway Inc.'s stockholders entitled to vote thereon (whether or not Clearway Inc. is the surviving entity), the holders of shares of Class C common stock will receive the same amount and form of consideration on a per share basis as the consideration, if any, received by holders of shares of Class A common stock in connection with such merger, consolidation or combination (and if holders of shares of Class A common stock are entitled to make an election as to the amount or form of consideration that such holders will receive in any such merger, consolidation or combination with respect to their shares of Class A common stock, then the holders of shares of Class C common stock will be entitled to make the same election as to their shares of Class C common stock). In the event of any (i) tender or exchange offer to acquire any shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock by any third party pursuant to an agreement to which Clearway Inc. is a party; or (ii) any tender or exchange offer or any other redemption or repurchase by Clearway Inc. to acquire any shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, the holders of shares of Class C common stock will receive the same amount and form of consideration on a per share basis as the consideration received by holders of shares of Class A common stock (and if holders of shares of Class A common stock are entitled to make an election as to the amount or form of consideration that such holders will receive in any such tender or exchange offer or other repurchase with respect to their shares of Class A common stock, then the holders of shares of Class C common stock will be entitled to make the same election as to their shares of Class C common stock).

**Class D Common Stock**

***Voting Rights***

Each share of Class D common stock entitles the holder to 1/100th of one vote with respect to each matter presented to Clearway Inc.'s stockholders on which the holders of Class D common stock are entitled to vote. Holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock vote together as a single class on all matters presented to Clearway Inc.'s stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law or the listing requirements of any exchange on which shares of Clearway Inc.'s common stock are listed. Holders of shares of Class D common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Except in respect of matters relating to the election and removal of directors on the Board of Directors and as otherwise provided in Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or required by law, all matters to be voted on by holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock, and Class D common stock must be approved by a majority, on a combined basis, of such shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter.

***Dividend and Liquidation Rights***

Holders of shares of Class D common stock do not have any right to receive dividends, other than dividends payable solely in shares of Class D common stock in the event of payment of a dividend in shares of common stock payable to holders of Class A common stock and Class C common stock, or to receive a distribution upon Clearway Inc.'s liquidation or winding up except for their right to receive payment for the par value of their shares of Class D common stock in connection with Clearway Inc.'s liquidation.

***Mandatory Redemption***

Shares of Class D common stock are subject to redemption at a price per share equal to par value upon the conversion of Class D units of Clearway LLC. Shares of Class D common stock so redeemed are automatically cancelled and are not available to be reissued.

***Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock***

Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of the NYSE, which would apply so long as the shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock remain listed on the NYSE, require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the then outstanding voting power or the then outstanding number of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital or to facilitate acquisitions.

One of the effects of the existence of unissued and unreserved common stock or preferred stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which issuance could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Clearway Inc. by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of Clearway Inc.'s management and possibly deprive the stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares at prices higher than prevailing market prices.

------

**Exhibit 4.62**

**Preferred Stock**

Under Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, Clearway Inc. is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, none of which is issued and outstanding.

The Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the preferences, powers and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including the dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights and liquidation preference and to fix the number of shares to be included in any such series without any further vote or action by Clearway Inc.'s stockholders. Any preferred stock so issued may rank senior to Clearway Inc.'s common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or both. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Clearway Inc. without further action by Clearway Inc.'s stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, including the loss of voting control to others. At present, Clearway Inc. has no plans to issue any preferred stock.

**Antitakeover Effects of Delaware Law and Clearway Inc.'s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws**

In addition to the disproportionate voting rights that Clearway Energy Group LLC ("*CEG*") has as a result of its ownership of Class B common stock and Class D common stock, some provisions of Delaware law contain, and Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and Clearway Inc.'s fourth amended and restated bylaws described below contain, a number of provisions which may have the effect of encouraging persons considering unsolicited tender offers or other unilateral takeover proposals to negotiate with the Board of Directors rather than pursue non-negotiated takeover attempts, which Clearway Inc. believes may result in an improvement of the terms of any such acquisition in favor of Clearway Inc.'s stockholders. However, these provisions also give the Board of Directors the power to discourage acquisitions that some stockholders may favor.

***Undesignated Preferred Stock***

The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock will make it possible for the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock with superior voting, special approval, dividend or other rights or preferences on a discriminatory basis that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire Clearway Inc. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring, delaying or discouraging hostile takeovers, or changes in control or management of the company.

***Meetings and Elections of Directors***

*Special Meetings of Stockholders.* Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors by a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of directors then in office.

*Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent.* Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and its fourth amended and restated bylaws provide that holders of Clearway Inc.'s common stock cannot act by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

*Vacancies.* Any vacancy occurring on the Board of Directors and any newly created directorship may be filled only by a majority of the directors remaining in office (even if less than a quorum), subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock.

***Amendments***

*Amendments of Certificate of Incorporation.* The provisions described above under "—Special Meetings of Stockholders," "—Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent" and "—Vacancies" may be amended only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the combined voting power of outstanding shares of Clearway Inc.'s capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

------

**Exhibit 4.62**

*Amendment of Bylaws.* The Board of Directors has the power to make, alter, amend, change or repeal Clearway Inc.'s bylaws or adopt new bylaws by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of directors then in office.

***Notice Provisions Relating to Stockholder Proposals and Nominees***

Clearway Inc.'s fourth amended and restated bylaws also impose some procedural requirements on stockholders who wish to make nominations in the election of directors or propose any other business to be brought before an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Specifically, a stockholder may (i) bring a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders, (ii) nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, or (iii) nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors at a special meeting of stockholders that has been called for the purpose of electing directors, only if such stockholder delivers timely notice to Clearway Inc.'s corporate secretary. The notice must be in writing and must include certain information and comply with the delivery requirements as set forth in Clearway Inc.'s fourth amended and restated bylaws.

To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be received at Clearway Inc.'s principal executive offices:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the case of a nomination or other business in connection with an annual meeting of stockholders, not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting of stockholders; *provided, however*, that if the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 days before or delayed more than 70 days after the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, notice by the stockholder must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by Clearway Inc.;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the case of a nomination in connection with a special meeting of stockholders, not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day before such special meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by Clearway Inc..

With respect to special meetings of stockholders, Clearway Inc.'s fourth amended and restated bylaws provide that only such business shall be conducted as shall have been stated in the notice of the meeting.

***Delaware Antitakeover Law***

Clearway Inc. has opted out of Section 203 of the DGCL. However, Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that in the event Global Infrastructure Investors III, LLC and its affiliates cease to beneficially own at least 5% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of Clearway Inc.'s capital stock, Clearway Inc. will automatically become subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 provides that, subject to certain exceptions specified in the law, a Delaware corporation shall not engage in certain "business combinations" with any "interested stockholder" for a three-year period following the time that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prior to such time, the Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding certain shares; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at or subsequent to that time, the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

------

**Exhibit 4.62**

Generally, a "business combination" includes a merger, asset or stock sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with that person's affiliates and associates, owns, or within the previous three years did own, 15% or more of Clearway Inc.'s voting stock.

Under certain circumstances, Section 203 makes it more difficult for a person who would be an "interested stockholder" to effect various business combinations with a corporation for a three-year period. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage companies interested in acquiring Clearway Inc. to negotiate in advance with the Board of Directors because the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if the Board of Directors approves either the business combination or the transaction that results in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. These provisions also may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

**Amendments**

Any amendments to Clearway Inc.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, subject to the rights of holders of Clearway Inc.'s preferred stock, regarding the provisions thereof summarized under "—Antitakeover Effects of Delaware Law and Clearway Inc.'s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws" will require the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all shares of common stock then outstanding.

**Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Clearway Energy LLC**

The following is a description of the material terms of the fourth amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Clearway LLC.

***Governance***

Clearway Inc. serves as the sole managing member of Clearway LLC. As such, Clearway Inc., and effectively the Board of Directors, controls the business and affairs of Clearway LLC and is responsible for the management of its business. No other member of Clearway LLC, in its capacity as such, has any authority or right to control the management of Clearway LLC or to bind it in connection with any matter. Any amendment, supplement or waiver of the Clearway LLC operating agreement must be approved by a majority of Clearway Inc.'s independent directors.

***Voting and Economic Rights of Members***

Clearway LLC has issued four classes of units: Class A units and Class C units, which may only be issued to Clearway Inc., as the sole managing member, and Class B units and Class D units, which may only be issued to CEG and held by CEG or its permitted assignees or permitted transferees (collectively, the "*CEG Member*"). Units of each of the four classes have equivalent economic and other rights, except that upon issuance, each holder of a Class B unit will also be issued a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class B common stock and each holder of a Class D unit will also be issued a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class D common stock. Each Class B unit is exchangeable for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, dividends and reclassifications in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement (as described below), and each Class D unit is exchangeable for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, dividends and reclassifications in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement. When the CEG Member exchanges a Class B unit of Clearway LLC for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock, Clearway Inc. will automatically redeem and cancel a corresponding share of Class B common stock, and the Class B unit will automatically convert into a Class A unit of Clearway LLC issued to Clearway Inc. When the CEG Member exchanges a Class D unit of Clearway LLC for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock, Clearway Inc. will automatically redeem and cancel a corresponding share of Clearway Inc.'s Class D common stock, and the Class D unit will automatically convert into a Class C unit of Clearway LLC issued to Clearway Inc. None of the units have any voting rights.

------

**Exhibit 4.62**

Net profits and net losses and distributions by Clearway LLC are allocated and made to holders of units in accordance with the respective number of membership units of Clearway LLC held. Clearway LLC will make distributions to Clearway Inc. and CEG for the purpose of funding tax obligations in respect of income of Clearway LLC that is allocated to the members of Clearway LLC. However, Clearway LLC may not make any distributions to its members if doing so would violate any agreement to which it is then a party or any law then applicable to it, have the effect of rendering it insolvent or result in it having net capital lower than that required by applicable law. Additionally, because Clearway Inc.'s operations are conducted primarily through Clearway Energy Operating LLC ("*Clearway Operating LLC*"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Clearway LLC, and Clearway Operating LLC's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement restricts the ability of Clearway Operating LLC to make distributions to Clearway LLC, Clearway LLC may not have any funds available to make distributions to Clearway Inc. and CEG (including with respect to tax obligations).

***Coordination of Clearway Inc. and Clearway LLC***

At any time Clearway Inc. issues a share of its Class A common stock or Class C common stock for cash, the net proceeds therefrom will promptly be transferred to Clearway LLC and Clearway LLC will either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• (i) transfer a newly issued Class A unit of Clearway LLC to Clearway Inc. in the case of the issuance of a share of Class A common stock, or transfer a newly issued Class C unit of Clearway LLC to Clearway Inc. in the case of the issuance of a share of Class C common stock or (ii) purchase Class B Units or Class D Units from the CEG Member, which Class B Units or Class D Units, as applicable, will automatically be reclassified into Class A Units or Class Units, as applicable; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• use a portion of the net proceeds to purchase a Class B unit of Clearway LLC from the CEG Member in the case of the issuance of a share of Class A common stock, which Class B unit will automatically convert into a Class A unit of Clearway LLC when transferred to Clearway Inc. or use the net proceeds to purchase a Class D unit of Clearway LLC from the CEG Member in the case of the issuance of a share of Class C common stock, which Class D unit will automatically convert into a Class C unit of Clearway LLC when transferred to Clearway Inc.

In the event Clearway LLC purchases a Class B unit or a Class D unit of Clearway LLC from the CEG Member, Clearway Inc. will concurrently redeem and cancel the corresponding share of its Class B common stock or Class D common stock, as applicable.

If Clearway Inc. issues other classes or series of equity securities, Clearway LLC will issue, and Clearway Inc. will use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase, an equal amount of units with designations, preferences and other rights and terms that are substantially the same as Clearway Inc.'s newly-issued equity securities. Conversely, if Clearway Inc. elects to redeem any shares of its Class A common stock or Class C common stock (or its equity securities of other classes or series) for cash, Clearway LLC will, immediately prior to such redemption, redeem an equal number of Class A units or Class C units (or its units of the corresponding classes or series) held by Clearway Inc. upon the same terms and for the same price, as the shares of Class A common stock or Class C common stock (or equity securities of such other classes or series) so redeemed.

***Issuances and Transfer of Units***

Class A units and Class C units may only be issued to Clearway Inc., as the sole managing member of Clearway LLC, and are non-transferable except upon redemption by Clearway LLC. Class B units and Class D units may only be issued to the CEG Member. Class B units and Class D units may not be transferred without Clearway Inc.'s consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except the CEG Member may transfer Class B units or Class D units to any of its direct or indirect limited partners or other equityholders and to a permitted transferee (including an affiliate) without Clearway Inc.'s consent. The CEG Member may not transfer any Class B units or Class D units to any person unless the CEG Member transfers an equal number of shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class B common stock or Class D common stock, as applicable, to the same transferee.

------

**Exhibit 4.62**

***Exchange Agreement***

Clearway Inc. is a party to a Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement with CEG and Clearway LLC, pursuant to which CEG Members may from time to time cause Clearway LLC to exchange its Class B units for shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications, or to exchange its Class D units for shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, and reclassifications (the "*Exchange Agreement*"). The Exchange Agreement also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, CEG Members do not have the right to cause Clearway LLC to exchange Class B or Class D units if Clearway LLC determines that such exchange would be prohibited by law or regulation or would violate other agreements to which Clearway Inc. may be subject, and Clearway Inc. may impose additional restrictions on exchange that it determines necessary or advisable so that Clearway LLC is not treated as a "publicly traded partnership" for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

When a CEG Member exchanges a Class B unit of Clearway LLC for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock, Clearway Inc. will automatically redeem and cancel a corresponding share of Clearway Inc.'s Class B common stock and the Class B unit will automatically convert into a Class A unit when issued to Clearway Inc. Similarly, when a CEG Member exchanges a Class D unit of Clearway LLC for a share of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock, Clearway Inc. will automatically redeem and cancel a corresponding share of Clearway Inc.'s Class D common stock and the Class D unit will automatically convert into a Class C unit when issued to Clearway Inc. As a result, when a CEG Member exchanges its Class B units for shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock, or its Class D units for shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock, Clearway Inc.'s interest in Clearway LLC will be correspondingly increased.

Additionally, when a CEG Member exchanges a Class B unit or Class D unit of Clearway LLC, the CEG Member will pay Clearway Inc. an equitable cash settlement on the applicable exchange date for the value of certain of Clearway Inc.'s assets that are not held through Clearway LLC. The amount of any such payment will be calculated based on the net present value of the projected discounted cash flow of such assets, using a discount rate equal to the weighted average cost of capital for such assets, and the daily volume-weighted average closing price of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock or Class C common stock, as applicable, for the trailing 30 trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the applicable exchange date.

Clearway Inc. has reserved for issuance 42,738,750 shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class A common stock, which is the aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock expected to be issued over time upon the exchange of all Class B units of Clearway LLC currently outstanding, and 41,576,142 shares of Clearway Inc.'s Class C common stock, which is the aggregate number of shares of Class C common stock expected to be issued over time upon the exchange of all Class D units of Clearway LLC currently outstanding.

***Indemnification and Exculpation***

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Clearway LLC will indemnify its managing member, Clearway Inc.'s authorized officers and Clearway Inc.'s other employees and agents from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses, fees or penalties incurred in connection with serving in such capacities, provided that the acts or omissions of these indemnified persons are not the result of fraud, intentional misconduct or a violation of the implied contractual duty of good faith and fair dealing, or any lesser standard of conduct permitted under applicable law.

Such authorized officers and other employees and agents will not be liable to Clearway LLC, its members or their affiliates for damages incurred as a result of any acts or omissions of these persons, provided that the acts or omissions of these exculpated persons are not the result of fraud, intentional misconduct or a violation of the implied contractual duty of good faith and fair dealing, or any lesser standard of conduct permitted under applicable law.
