      UPDATE: NRG Energy To Buy Solar-Farm Pipeline From ArcLight

      6-21-10 6:21 PM EDT



      By Cassandra Sweet

      Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
      NRG Energy Inc. (NRG) said Monday it plans to buy a pipeline of solar farms from private-equity firm ArcLight Capital Partners LLC, as part of NRG's plans to expand its solar-power generation business.

      The acquisition includes nine proposed solar farms being developed in California and Arizona, and nearly doubles the amount of solar power NRG is developing, to 1,150 megawatts, the company said. The proposed ArcLight projects range from 20 megawatts to 99 megawatts and could start operating between 2011 and 2013, NRG said.

      No solar-panel supply agreements have been signed for the projects, nor have contracts been signed to sell the output to utilities, said Tom Doyle, president of NRG's solar division.

      Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

      Doyle said the projects are in various stages of the permitting process, with at least one project likely to obtain its needed permits allowing construction to begin "within the next couple of months."

      The most advanced projects are in California, with at least one proposed solar farm located near an existing solar farm NRG owns near Blythe, Calif. That plant was built by solar-panel maker First Solar Inc. (FSLR).

      Doyle said that First Solar could be involved in one or more of its solar farms, although NRG hasn't secured any relationships for any of the projects.

      "At this point, we have no commitments for photovoltaic technology," Doyle said. "We'll make that decision down the road."

      As the owner and operator of roughly 24,000 megawatts of mostly coal, natural gas and nuclear power plants, and a large nuclear power plant under development, Princeton, N.J.-based NRG has lately focused on expanding its renewable energy business, with a focus on solar.

      The wholesale power market for fossil-fueled generation has been down the last two years amid weak demand caused by the economic downturn. Renewable energy in many states has remained profitable, however, owing to state renewable-energy requirements, Doyle said.

      "Customers are signing long-term power purchase agreements" for renewable power, Doyle said. "In the fossil-fuel industry, they're not."

      Last year NRG bought the 21-megawatt California solar farm built by First Solar and acquired offshore wind-power developer Bluewater Wind.

      First Solar and NRG Energy Open Largest Solar PV Power Plant in California

      Blythe photovoltaic solar project generates renewable, clean electricity for Southern California Edison


      PRINCETON, NJ, Dec. 21, 2009—First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR) and NRG Energy, Inc.

      (NYSE: NRG) today announced the start of commercial operation for the largest photovoltaic (PV) solar project in California. First Solar developed and built the 21-megawatt (MW) power plant in Blythe, Calif., which was acquired last month by NRG through its wholly owned subsidiary NRG Solar.

      Electricity generated by the solar facility is being sold to Southern California Edison (SCE) under a 20-year power purchase agreement.

      Located in Riverside County about 200 miles east of Los Angeles, the Blythe plant is the largest thin film PV project in the United States and is five times the size of the next largest PV project in California. NRG estimates that at peak capacity, the project can supply the power needs of almost 17,000 homes while helping California meet its renewable energy goals. Approximately 175 people built Blythe during its three-month construction and installation period.

      “It is no surprise that America’s largest thin film solar project was built right here in California, where my Administration has successfully created a climate where green businesses can thrive,” said California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. “It is forward-thinking businesses such as First Solar that will help California reach its nation-leading greenhouse gas reduction and Renewable Portfolio
      Standard goals as well as create the new green jobs that will help spur our economic recovery.”

      “Solar is the great untapped resource in California and we are pleased to be part of this significant milestone for solar development in our state,” said Marc Ulrich, SCE vice president, Renewables and Alternative Power. “Bringing this power to the grid helps SCE maintain its position as the nation’s leading utility for renewable energy.”

      “California, as it has in many arenas, is leading the way of encouraging large-scale clean energy sources,” said David Crane, NRG Energy President and CEO. “NRG, through our association with
      pioneers like First Solar and forward-thinking companies like SCE, seeks to help clean our air while stocking our country’s clean energy economic growth through commercial implementation of solar technology.”

      First Solar expanded its offerings in California in 2008. The Blythe plant is a model for First Solar’s future large-scale solar developments. “The development, project finance and construction of this solar plant demonstrate First Solar’s capabilities in utility scale projects,” said Bruce Sohn, president of First Solar. “With a three-month build out, we are pleased to be bringing it online ahead of
      schedule.”

      Using First Solar’s industry-leading thin film PV panels that convert sunlight directly into electricity with no water consumption during operation, the Blythe plant will generate over 45,000 megawatthours of clean, affordable, sustainable electricity per year. This solar generation will avoid approximately 12,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually – the equivalent of taking over 2,200 cars off the road. First Solar will provide operations and maintenance services at Blythe under a long-term contract with NRG.

      NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NRG) has signed a definitive agreement with an affiliate of The Blackstone Group L.P. to purchase 3,884 megawatts (MW) of Dynegy Inc. assets in California and Maine for $1.36 billion, or $351/kilowatt. In a separate transaction, NRG has agreed to acquire the Cottonwood Generating Station, a 1,279 MW natural gas-fueled plant in the Entergy zone of east Texas, from Kelson Limited Partnership for $525 million, or $410/kilowatt. The Company intends to fund both acquisitions with a combination of cash and other funding sources. Both acquisitions are expected to close by year end.

      The assets strengthen NRG's regional and dispatch diversity by greatly expanding the Company's load following mid-merit generation profile. The addition of combined cycle plants in northern California expands capabilities across the state, advances the Company's ability to "firm" renewable resources with highly efficient gas generation, while lowering the overall carbon intensity of NRG's fleet. NRG currently contracts with Cottonwood, one of the newest and most efficient plants in the region, to support current long-term contracts in Louisiana, Arkansas and East Texas. Owning Cottonwood will allow for future contracting opportunities and will enable NRG to provide additional balancing and ancillary services. The Company expects the transactions will be accretive to adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow immediately.

      "We've sought for many years to fill the gap in our combined cycle gas portfolio in our core markets,' said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG Energy. "With these acquisitions of ideally located assets, we are filling that gap in three of our four core regions while furthering our long-standing strategy of being a regionally focused, multi-fuel scale generator with the ability to dispatch our assets efficiently across the merit order in each of our core markets."

      Blackstone Senior Managing Director David Foley said, "Blackstone's relationship with NRG began with NRG's acquisition of Texas Genco five years ago and we are pleased to continue that partnership by working together on an exclusive basis to structure this innovative transaction involving the simultaneous sale of certain Dynegy assets to NRG with the closing of Blackstone's acquisition of Dynegy."

      Strategic and Financial Benefits

      * Enhances Geographic Diversity and Builds Scale in Core Regions
      These acquisitions build greater balance across the Company's core operating regions. Capacity in the West region would more than double, constituting 19% of the overall domestic fleet, from 9% currently. South Central region capacity increases from 12% to 14% of the Company's overall installed megawatts in the United States.

      * Improves Emission Intensity and Dispatch Level Diversity
      By adding 2,839 MW of modern, high-efficiency, combined cycle generation, the Company enhanced its ability to firm renewables, increased mid-merit profile and improved the NRG fleet's fuel diversity. In terms of total fleet output, the Company increased the share of generation from gas- or oil-fueled plants from 11% to 23% (based on 2009 data).

      * Accretes to EBITDA
      The new asset portfolio is expected to contribute between $175 and $225 million in annualized adjusted EBITDA. Key drivers regarding that contribution are: the high dispatch profile for Casco Bay and Moss Landing 1& 2 due to their favorable merit-order position, location and interconnection to load; a significant portion of the portfolio in California is contracted with highly credit-worthy entities for the next several years; and portfolio synergies provided by Cottonwood to the South Central region's load-following capability.

      Specific Asset Description - The new asset portfolio totals 5,163 MW, bringing NRG's generation portfolio to 28,608 megawatts—enough to supply nearly 23 million homes.
      Name Capacity (MW) Technology Fuel Contracted
      Casco Bay 540 Combined Cycle Natural Gas Capacity only (FCM)
      Moss Landing (1&2) 1,020 Combined Cycle Natural Gas Capacity only (RA)
      Moss Landing (6&7) 1,509 Steam Turbine Natural Gas Toll
      Morro Bay 650 Steam Turbine Natural Gas Toll
      Oakland 165 Combustion Turbine Oil RMR
      Cottonwood 1,279 Combined Cycle Natural Gas None (merchant)

      The transactions are subject to approvals from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and Department of Justice (Hart Scott Rodino). The transaction with The Blackstone Group L.P. affiliate is conditioned upon the closing of its merger with Dynegy, which the parties intend to occur simultaneously, and requires notification to the California Public Utilities Commission. The Cottonwood acquisition also requires a Public Utility Commission of Texas notification.

      NRG To Acquire 290MW Agua Caliente Solar Project

      Situated on 2,400 acres of land between Yuma and Phoenix, AZ, the Agua Caliente project has secured all necessary permits for construction and the early construction phases have begun. First Solar has developed the project and is the engineering, procurement and construction contractor, using its advanced thin-film PV modules. First Solar will provide operations and maintenance services.
      by Staff Writers


      Princeton NJ (SPX) Dec 15, 2010
      NRG Energy and First Solar have announced that NRG, through its wholly owned subsidiary, NRG Solar, has agreed to acquire the 290-megawatt (MW) Agua Caliente solar project from First Solar. The project is scheduled to be completed by 2014 and has a 25-year power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company.

      When completed, Agua Caliente is expected to be the largest operational photovoltaic (PV) site in the world.

      Located in Yuma County, AZ, the Agua Caliente project is expected to generate state and local tax revenues, provide wages for up to 400 construction jobs and create economic benefits for many local businesses.

      "Solar power is critical to transitioning our nation to having a greater emphasis on large-scale clean energy technologies and it is going to be projects of the scale of Agua Caliente that will help us achieve this ambitious goal," said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG Energy.

      "This investment significantly increases our presence in the state and benefits the residents of Arizona while providing attractive returns to NRG's stakeholders."

      At full capacity, NRG estimates the 290 MW project will provide clean, zero-emission electricity for more than 225,000 homes. The project is expected to offset approximately 5.5 million metric tons of CO2 over 25 years, the equivalent of taking over 40,000 cars off the road annually.

      Agua Caliente will generate electricity with no air emissions, no waste production and no water consumption.

      "Agua Caliente is representative of our mission to provide clean, affordable, sustainable solar energy, capitalizing on our advanced thin-film technology and the tremendous solar resource of Arizona," said Rob Gillette, CEO of First Solar.

      "We are very pleased to further expand our relationship with NRG as the owner of Agua Caliente, the first of our multi-hundred-megawatt utility-scale projects to begin construction."

      An application has been submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy for a federal loan guarantee in connection with the financing of the project, which is expected to be one of the first in the U.S. to start construction under the program. Closing of the acquisition is contingent on receiving the federal loan guarantee.

      NRG plans to invest up to $800 million of equity in the project through 2014 through a potential combination of cash on hand in addition to third-party investor equity.

      Situated on 2,400 acres of land between Yuma and Phoenix, AZ, the Agua Caliente project has secured all necessary permits for construction and the early construction phases have begun. First Solar has developed the project and is the engineering, procurement and construction contractor, using its advanced thin-film PV modules. First Solar will provide operations and maintenance services.

      The Agua Caliente solar project is the latest in a series of clean energy advancements NRG has made in Arizona this year. In June, NRG purchased the district energy system in Phoenix, NRG Energy Center Phoenix, that produces and distributes chilled water to customers in the Phoenix central business district as well as operating and maintaining district energy/combined heat and power plants for Arizona State University and in Tucson.

      In September, NRG began an initiative with Kennedy Partners to develop solar arrays for Arizona schools to meet their own electricity needs while providing new teaching tools and shade for parking. NRG is also developing a 25 MW solar photovoltaic project for Tucson Electric Power to help meet the energy demands of the state with renewable energy.

      "Arizona is a key area of growth for NRG where our investment is creating local jobs and building infrastructure," said Tom Doyle, president of NRG Solar and a Phoenix resident.

      "It is very gratifying to be able to see the benefits of our partnerships with local schools, providing cooling and heating for local businesses and universities and developing solar fields like Agua Caliente and our project for Tucson Electric Power. This is a relationship that will benefit all Arizona residents for a very long time."
