Hallador signs $271 million capacity sale with Duke Energy Indiana through May 2035
Hallador Energy's subsidiary Hallador Power signed a six-year power purchase agreement and a capacity credit sale agreement with Duke Energy Indiana, both covering output from the Merom Generating Station from June 1, 2029 through May 31, 2035. The filing says Duke Energy Indiana will pay approximately $271 million for the capacity credits over the term, and the company's press release puts total forward sales at $3 billion. The deals lock in future revenue for much of Merom's output but require standby letters of credit and are unit contingent.
