Every material Form 8-K Net Power Inc. has filed with the SEC since September 03, 2026, read and summarized by AI: what happened, the key figures, whether it reads positive or negative for shareholders, and how big a deal it is (impact 1-5). Newest first; each brief links to its own page and to the filing on SEC.gov.
NET Power's subsidiary and Saulsbury Industries agreed on October 16, 2026 to extend the deadline for the full notice to proceed and the Mobilization Payment under their engineering and construction contract from October 15, 2026 to March 31, 2027. The $3.5 million termination payment is deferred, but only if the parties sign a Fourth Amendment and a limited notice to proceed and make the required payments by November 15, 2026. The filing says the company has no committed project financing, and shareholders face the risk that the payment becomes due if these conditions are not met.
Extension Agreement dated effective October 15, 2026 moves the FNTP and Mobilization Payment deadline to March 31, 2027.
The $3.5 million Termination Payment is deferred if the Fourth Amendment and LNTP are executed and the LNTP payments are made by November 15, 2026.
If those conditions are not met, the Termination Payment is due within ten days after Saulsbury's written demand and invoice.
The filing states there is no committed equipment or project-level financing, customer funding or partner capital, other than a cost reimbursement arrangement subject to approval and an aggregate cap.
On September 8, 2026, Net Power and its affiliates entered three agreements with Baker Hughes affiliates that indefinitely suspend the utility-scale oxy-combustion development and commercialization arrangements. The filing says no royalty has been agreed and none is assured, and no party is obligated to deploy a plant, so shareholders face a narrower path to near-term revenue from this partnership.
Effective September 8, 2026, the A&R JDA and Commercial Agreement are suspended indefinitely; the filing says neither agreement is terminated.
Baker Hughes' access and exclusivity rights at the La Porte, Texas demonstration facility terminated on the Suspension Date.
The license amendment, effective January 1, 2026, keeps NP's utility-scale exclusive license but sets up industrial-scale licensing with a royalty that has not been agreed.
The filing states the suspension did not arise from any breach or default, and that Net Power determined utility-scale commercialization was not economical at this time.
Net Power said its subsidiary took over EMPower USA's rights and assumed commitments under a $196.7 million engineering, procurement and construction contract with Saulsbury Industries for an approximately 123 MW natural-gas power facility, effective August 31, 2026. The company paid $97.6 million in cash on the closing date, and remaining payment commitments under the contract are approximately $119.1 million, so shareholders face large near-term capital needs before the project's financing and change order are settled.
Aggregate cash paid to EMPower, including $20.0 million of deposits, totaled $58.9 million; total cash paid on the closing date was $97.6 million.
Remaining EPC payment commitments are approximately $119.1 million, including a $10.2 million Mobilization Payment due on or before October 15, 2026.
Work under the EPC agreement has been suspended since July 1, 2026; the post-closing change order has not been executed, and the Purchaser may terminate if it is not executed within 30 days after closing.
Wärtsilä North America expressly reserved its position on the project relocation to the Purchaser's replacement site.
