NRG Energy shares rose 6.4% as the company advances a BYOP deal with a hyperscaler for a 1.2 GW combined-cycle gas project in Texas, brought a 415 MW facility into commercial operation, and reported $1.03 billion of Q2 free cash flow before growth investments. The move reflects investor interest in dispatchable power for AI/data‑center load, with the bull case driven by speed to market and contracted demand. Key risks include project execution, fuel exposure, financing and the possibility that forecasted data‑center load does not materialize. » Plus sur finance.yahoo.com

NRG Energy reported adjusted EPS of $1.49 for Q2 2026, well below the consensus of about $1.82. Higher interest and depreciation costs related to the acquisition of the LS Power portfolio weighed on profitability, even though adjusted EBITDA rose 34% to $1.217 billion. Management reaffirmed the full-year range of $7.90–9.90 per share but expects results below the midpoint, citing weaker power demand/prices in Texas, higher supply and winter storm costs, and roughly $70 million in RGGI charges.
