NRG Energy reported $2.0 billion of adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter, up from $1.2 billion in the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to earnings from newly acquired LS Power generation assets.
NRG generates enough free cash flow to stabilize the balance sheet while returning cash to shareholders after the LS Power and Rockland asset deals.
Environmental regulations and renewable energy growth could erode profitability at NRG's fossil fuel power plants.
