Recently, NRG Energy�� subsidiary NRG Solar has announced that its two solar PV facilities - Kansas South and TA-High Desert projects - have started commercial operation. The company acquired these two projects having power generation capacity of 20 megawatts (MW) each, from Recurrent Energy. NRG Energy will sell the output to Edison International�� (EIX) unit Southern California Edison and PG&E Corporation�� (PCG) subsidiary Pacific Gas and Electric Company. We believe these contracts will ensure a stable earnings stream.
With the renewable market dynamics becoming more favorable in the U.S., NRG Energy�� pursuit to increase its solar portfolio will definitely prove to be a key growth driver.
