NRG's indirect subsidiary NRG Cedar Bayou 5 LLC entered a credit agreement on September 26, 2025 for up to $561,901,530, with the Public Utility Commission of Texas as lender, to fund about 60% of eligible costs for a roughly 721 MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle plant in Chambers County, Texas. NRG also agreed to guarantee the borrower's payment obligations, so the parent company carries that exposure.

  • Final maturity date of September 26, 2045
