Executive summary

The evidence points to two priced markets within one sector. Contracted, yieldco-style platforms anchor the middle of the forward-revenue range near the sector median, while adjacent models occupy both the premium and discount ends. Growth is broadly available across the set, but no rated name combines an above-median multiple with an above-median EBITDA margin, so on this evidence duration and cash conversion — not growth alone — explain where value sits. The disclosed transaction tape reinforces this: buyers are paying for contracted assets and portfolios, not for platforms.

Key findings

  • Contracted platforms cluster at the sector's 6.9x median multiple
  • Premium end trades at 10.1x vs 0.7x at the discount end of the set
  • No rated name pairs an above-median multiple with above-median margin
  • Disclosed deals price contracted assets, not corporate platforms

    Cover slide introducing the sector's forward-valuation framing for renewable electricity producers.

    We open with this sector's central finding: renewable electricity producers are trading as two distinct markets, one paid for duration and one paid for delivery. Everything that follows is built on the forward valuation basis — EV / Revenue on CY2027E consensus — as of September 15, 2026.

    01 · THE BOTTOM LINE

    One Sector, Two Markets: Contracted Platforms Paid for Duration, Adjacent Models Paid for Delivery

    States the report's core conclusion that contracted platforms and adjacent models are priced on different bases within the same sector.

    The rated set centers on 6.9x EV / Revenue for CY2027E, and it's the contracted, yieldco-style platforms that sit on that median — a forward multiple already prices in expected growth, so holding that level reads as the market paying for the durability of contracted cash flow. At the extremes, one name trades at 10.1x and another at 0.7x, and these are not comparable businesses in this set. Forward growth is broadly available across the group, yet no rated name pairs an above-median multiple with an above-median EBITDA margin, so the premium is being paid ahead of the margin evidence. That gap is the question every owner and acquirer in this sector needs to resolve.

Qualitative characterisations are NeuraCap views. Renewable Electricity Producers Coverage | September 2026 | Confidential Sources & methodology 3 1 The Middle of the Set Is 6.9x, and the Contracted Fleets Sit on It The 4 names carrying a forward multiple centre on 6.9x EV / Revenue for CY2027E, and the yieldco-style contracted platforms sit on that mark. A forward multiple already credits expected growth, so holding that level is the market paying for the duration of contracted cash flow rather than for a forecast. 2 10.1x at the Top Against 0.7x at the Bottom At the premium end of the rated set, one name trades at 10.1x forward revenue; at the discount end, one name trades at 0.7x. These are not the same business: one sells on-site fuel-cell generation into a build ramp, the other owns a regulated hydro and renewable fleet carrying sovereign, currency and concession-renewal risk. 3 Growth Is Common Here; Margin Is What Divides the Set Forward growth across the set centres near 28%, with the top of the range at 67% and 46%. Yet among the 4 names carrying a forward multiple, none pairs an above-middle multiple with an EBITDA margin above the covered middle of 25% — the premium is being paid ahead of the margin evidence. 4 On the Tape, Buyers Are Paying for Assets Rather than Platforms The nine disclosed deals in this window run from $9M to $357M and are mostly single-asset or portfolio trades in solar, wind and hydro — the size range of capital recycling rather than corporate consolidation. Pricing there is argued off contracted cash flow and the merchant tail, so offtaker credit and remaining PPA life weigh more than headline growth. 6.9x Sector median EV/Revenue CY2027E consensus · 4 rated of 7 companies 10.1x Premium tier median vs 0.7x discount top quartile (n=1) against bottom quartile (n=1) — the spread the report explains 165 Recorded transactions in this tier told as case studies in the deal section; the full tape is in the appendix

    Four Contracted Fleets, Three Adjacent Models — and the Two Groups Are Priced Differently

    Groups the seven-company universe into contracted fleets and adjacent models and compares their median forward multiples.

    We group the approved universe into two segments — four contracted fleets and three adjacent models — and read each group's median EV / Revenue for CY2027E. The split shows which segment sets the sector's reference price and which trades away from it. For an owner, knowing which group your business is read against changes how the market will price you.

    The Contracted Fleets Carry the Set; The Adjacent Models Carry the Spread

    Compares how the contracted-fleet segment and the adjacent-model segment carry the set's valuation and its spread.

    The contracted fleets make up most of the rated names and anchor the set's center, while the adjacent models carry most of the spread between the premium and discount ends. This tells us the sector's valuation range is less about the average business and more about the handful of names at either extreme. Full company-level detail sits in the appendix for anyone who wants to trace a specific name.

    Two Ends, Two Different Businesses: What the Forward Multiple Is Paying For

    Ranks the four rated companies by EV / Revenue for CY2027E against the sector median of 6.9x.

    Sorting the four rated names by EV / Revenue for CY2027E puts 10.1x at the top and 0.7x at the bottom of this set, against a sector median of 6.9x. These are two different businesses, not two points on the same curve — one is priced on a build ramp, the other carries regulated and concession risk. The spread itself is the finding: it tells a reader where the market's confidence concentrates and where it does not.

The premium end of the rated set is one name at 10.1x EV / Revenue on CY2027E, carried there by the steepest growth expectation in the set. Because the lens has already credited that forecast, the multiple is a claim on delivery rather than on installed earning power. The bottom trades at 0.7x. The discount end is one name at 0.7x, a regulated integrated utility with hydro and renewable fleets where sovereign, currency and concession-renewal regimes sit in front of the cash flow. That level is associated with jurisdiction risk and a modest growth expectation rather than with the quality of the fleet itself. Forward lenses reward durability. A CY2027E revenue multiple has already priced the forecast, so a premium that survives it points to durability rather than momentum. On the 4 names carrying this lens, that test is easier to pass with long-dated offtake than with a construction and delivery ramp.

    What Moves Value Here: Duration, Cash Conversion and the Cost of Capital

    Reads how duration, cash conversion and cost of capital associate with EV / Revenue across the rated set.

    We look at EV / Revenue for CY2027E against the levers an owner can actually influence — contract duration, cash conversion and cost of capital. These are associations we observe in the supplied data, not causal claims. Where the data lines up, it points to what an owner should prioritize to move the multiple.

Renewable Electricity Producers Coverage | September 2026 | Confidential Sources & methodology 9 Long-Dated Offtake with Credit-Worthy Counterparties Is the Annuity Weighted-average remaining PPA life and offtaker credit quality decide how much of a fleet's cash flow can be underwritten as an annuity and how much is a merchant tail argued separately. The contracted group in this set is read on that logic, which is why cash available for distribution travels better than reported earnings. Growth Near 28% Is the Entry Ticket; Margin Is the Differentiator Forward growth across the set centres near 28%, so growth on its own does not separate names. The covered middle for EBITDA margin is 25%, and on this evidence the multiple is associated with whether growth converts into margin rather than with the growth rate itself. Cost of Capital Is the Moat That Keeps a Platform Bidding Asset and portfolio deals are priced off project-level discounted cash flow against the contracted period, so the winning bid usually belongs to the lowest cost of capital. Platforms with a repeatable capital-recycling machine and efficient tax-credit monetisation, including transfer, can keep buying through a tighter funding market. Where Value Leaks: Merchant Tails, Curtailment and Queue Delay Unhedged merchant exposure, negative-pricing hours in congested nodes and interconnection queue delay all move value out of the pipeline and into the discount rate. Development gains carrying reported earnings are the other soft spot, because they are one-time by construction.

    Premium Multiple or Strong Margin — on This Evidence, the Two Have Not Met

    Maps rated names on EV / Revenue against the sector median of 6.9x and EBITDA margin against the covered median of 25%.

    Cutting the rated set on EV / Revenue against the 6.9x sector median and EBITDA margin against the 25% covered median, we find that on this evidence, a premium multiple and a strong margin have not met in the same name. That's an observation about where the set sits today, not a recommendation to buy or sell any security. It's the clearest single picture of the gap this report is built around.

    03 · THE AGENDA

    Four Questions an Owner in This Sector Should Resolve

    Frames four questions an owner in this sector should resolve based on the evidence presented.

    We frame four questions this data puts in front of an owner or acquirer: which cash flows are contracted versus optional, whether development gains are recurring or one-time, whether the capital-recycling engine can keep bidding, and where firm dispatchable supply changes the price. These aren't recommendations — they're the questions the evidence itself raises. Answering them is what determines which side of this sector's split a business sits on.

All content on this page is Directional — NeuraCap advisory judgment grounded in the cohort data shown earlier. It does not constitute investment advice. Renewable Electricity Producers Coverage | September 2026 | Confidential Sources & methodology 11 Which Cash Flows Are Annuity and Which Are Optionality? Split the fleet into contracted cash flow with strong offtake credit and the merchant tail, then read them apart the way asset buyers do. The mix, not the total, is what a forward multiple is responding to. What changes the answer: A shift in weighted-average remaining PPA life or in the offtaker credit mix. Is the Development Engine Recurring Value or a One-Time Gain? Pipeline with land control and secured interconnection is an earning asset; a gain booked on sale is a single event. Which of the two carries reported earnings decides whether a premium survives a forward lens. What changes the answer: The share of a year's earnings sourced from development gains. Can the Capital-Recycling Machine Keep Bidding? Cost of capital converts directly into bid competitiveness, and tax-credit monetisation, including transfer, sits inside that arithmetic. The test is whether recycling proceeds fund the next tranche without stretching project debt. What changes the answer: Refinancing terms on project debt, or a change in credit-transfer economics. Where Does Firm, Dispatchable Supply Change the Price? Large-load corporate demand values a firm profile differently from intermittent capacity, which puts geothermal, hydro and storage pairing in a separate conversation. Build-versus-buy on storage is the decision that follows. What changes the answer: New large-load contracts, or curtailment hours rising in a core node.

    Walks through case studies from the nine disclosed transactions, priced on LTM financials at announcement.

    The nine disclosed deals in this window run from $9M to $357M and sit mostly in solar, wind and hydro — the size range of capital recycling rather than corporate consolidation. Pricing there is argued off contracted cash flow and the merchant tail, so offtaker credit and remaining contract life carry more weight than headline growth. These multiples sit on a different basis than the public CY2027E figures, so no direct spread is claimed between the two. The complete tape is in the appendix for anyone tracing a specific transaction.

What the surrounding tape suggests is a market of asset and portfolio trades, where sponsors recycle capital rather than consolidate listed platforms. HOW THE TARGET WAS VALUED No disclosed value or multiple travels with this reference, so it cannot be benchmarked against the forward revenue lens. The comparable evidence in this window sits in the disclosed asset trades, which are argued off project-level contracted cash flow rather than a revenue multiple. Nov-2025 $10.5B Energy Capital Partners acquires TransAlta Corporation EV / LTM revenue 5.1x EV / LTM EBITDA 12.2x WHY THE DEAL HAPPENED Without parties or consideration, motive would be invention; the honest read is structural. In this sector minority stakes and joint ventures are a standard financing route, so an undisclosed record is not evidence of stress. HOW THE TARGET WAS VALUED Nothing in this reference can be priced against the CY2027E revenue lens, because no value or multiple is disclosed. The nine valued trades in this window are the benchmark set, and they cluster at asset scale rather than corporate scale. Jul-2025 $671B Consortium of Masdar, CPP Investments, ADIA and Sumant Sinha acquires ReNew Energy Global plc EV / LTM revenue 5.2x EV / LTM EBITDA 711.3x WHY THE DEAL HAPPENED The record supports no inference about who bought what or why, so the case value here is the convention rather than the transaction. Development-stage value in this sector is customarily paid in stages against permitting, interconnection and notice-to-proceed milestones. HOW THE TARGET WAS VALUED With no disclosed value or multiple, there is no figure to benchmark against the premium or discount ends of the listed set. Read it alongside the valued trades, where the price is set by offtaker credit, resource confidence and jurisdiction.

    What the Evidence Means for Owners, Buyers and Boards

    Sets out what the evidence means for owners, acquirers and boards.

    For owners, the evidence says margin conversion — not growth alone — is what the multiple is waiting on. For acquirers, the disclosed tape shows the acquirable assets sit alongside the listed platforms, priced on project-level cash flow rather than the public forward multiple. For boards, segment mix decides which reference a company is read against, which makes naming your business model a board-level decision. Each of these is a question this data puts on the table for what comes next.

Shifting mix toward long-dated offtake with strong counterparties, holding O&M cost per MW down and protecting cash conversion from EBITDA are the moves that separate the two ends here. FOR ACQUIRERS The Acquirable Assets Sit Alongside, Not Inside, the Listed Platforms The disclosed tape in this window is asset and portfolio trades priced off project-level cash flow rather than off the public forward multiple. Capital with a duration mandate competes for contracted fleets; buyers of distributed customer books are in a different market with a different risk shape. FOR BOARDS Segment Mix Decides Which Reference You Are Read Against Contracted platforms and adjacent models are read against different references in this set, so capital allocation between owning operating assets and running a development engine changes the lens applied to the company. Naming which business you are is a board decision, not a market one.

Renewable Electricity Producers Coverage | September 2026 | Confidential Sources & methodology 18 Date Transaction EV EV/LTM Rev EV/LTM EBITDA Why it matters May-2026 Ormat Technologies, Inc. → Hoku solar-plus-storage facility $80M n/a n/a Ormat Technologies, Inc. is recorded acquiring the Hoku solar-plus-storage facility at $80M in May-2026, status announced. For an owner of dispatchable geothermal, pairing storage with solar extends a firm profile rather than adding intermittent output; the filing records the value without a resolved unit, so treat it as indicative. May-2026 Undisclosed buyer → n/a $145M n/a n/a An undisclosed buyer is recorded at $145M in May-2026, with divestiture roles reassigned and parent financials detached in the record. Portfolio trades of this shape are a standard financing and capital-recycling route in this sector rather than a signal about the seller. Apr-2026 Soluna Holdings, Inc. → Briscoe Wind Farm $53M n/a n/a Soluna Holdings, Inc. is recorded acquiring the Briscoe Wind Farm at $53M in Apr-2026, status announced. Owning generation alongside a large computing load is the large-load demand story appearing on the ownership side of the tape, not only in offtake contracts. Mar-2026 Technique Solaire Group → ReNew Solar Energy (Rajasthan) Private Limited $49M n/a n/a Technique Solaire Group is recorded acquiring ReNew Solar Energy (Rajasthan) Private Limited at $49M in Mar-2026, status announced. Single-project company purchases are how developers add operating capacity in a chosen resource region without waiting on their own queue position. Mar-2026 CenterPoint Energy, Inc. → Posey Solar, LLC $357M n/a n/a CenterPoint Energy, Inc. is recorded acquiring Posey Solar, LLC at $357M in Mar-2026, the largest disclosed value in this window. Utility ownership places the asset in a rate-regulated frame, where allowed returns rather than merchant pricing anchor what the cash flow is worth. Jan-2026 Central Puerto S.A. → Piedra del Águila Hidroeléctrica Argentina S.A. $245M n/a n/a Central Puerto S.A. is recorded acquiring Piedra del Águila Hidroeléctrica Argentina S.A. at $245M in Jan-2026, status announced. Large hydro brings dispatchable output and long asset life, with concession-renewal and currency regimes as the terms that decide the realised return. Dec-2025 NOA Group Assets Proprietary Limited → Stellar Energy Solutions Proprietary Limited $9M n/a n/a NOA Group Assets Proprietary Limited is recorded acquiring Stellar Energy Solutions Proprietary Limited at $9M in Dec-2025, status announced. At this size the purchase reads as development capability and pipeline position rather than installed generation. Dec-2025 Companhia Paranaense de Energia → Baixo Iguaçu Hydroelectric Plant $291M n/a n/a Companhia Paranaense de Energia is recorded acquiring the Baixo Iguaçu Hydroelectric Plant at $291M in Dec-2025, status announced. Adding a hydro plant gives a utility fleet dispatchable output with long life, which is the profile firm-supply buyers are contracting for. Nov-2025 SunPower Inc. → Ambia Energy, LLC $65M n/a n/a SunPower Inc. is recorded acquiring Ambia Energy, LLC at $65M in Nov-2025, status announced. In distributed solar the asset is a customer book and a sales channel, which is why this corner of the sector draws specialty finance and industrial strategics rather than infrastructure capital.

    Sources, Assumptions and Data Quality

    Explains the report's sources, valuation basis, exclusions and data-quality assumptions.

    This page sets out how the report was built: the valuation basis, what was excluded and why, and where every underlying disclosure lives. We include this so a client can independently verify any figure rather than take our framing on faith. Transparency on method is what makes the rest of this report usable in a live conversation.

Sources and methodology

This report covers Renewable Electricity Producers (Utilities › Utilities › Renewable Electricity Producers) with market data and consensus estimates as of September 15, 2026. The company universe is the 7 listed companies whose core business is Renewable Electricity Producers according to NeuraCap's industry classification of each company's reported business segments (a company is included only when this industry is central to what it does, not merely adjacent to it). Companies in the set: BE, CIG, CWEN, ENLT, NXXT, ORA, RUN. The market map groups them by business vertical — Yieldco-style contracted renewable platforms: 4 companies (ENLT, CWEN, NXXT, ORA); Adjacent models: 3 companies (BE, CIG, RUN). 4 of the 7 companies carry a valid multiple on the primary valuation basis and form the rated set behind every cohort statistic; the others are shown but do not enter the statistics.

What was excluded and why

13 records failed a validation gate and never feed a statistic in this report (5 excluded from universe; 5 excluded from aggregate; 3 quarantined). Each exclusion, with its reason: BEP — The ticker BEP carries a preferred, warrant or unit suffix and the security name gives no sign of an operating company (effect: excluded from universe) · RNW — The ticker RNW carries a preferred, warrant or unit suffix and the security name gives no sign of an operating company (effect: excluded from universe) · SPRU — The ticker SPRU carries a preferred, warrant or unit suffix and the security name gives no sign of an operating company (effect: excluded from universe) · SPWR — The ticker SPWR carries a preferred, warrant or unit suffix and the security name gives no sign of an operating company (effect: excluded from universe) · XIFR — The ticker XIFR carries a preferred, warrant or unit suffix and the security name gives no sign of an operating company (effect: excluded from universe) · BE — Non-positive EPS; P/E is n/m (effect: excluded from aggregate) · CWEN — Implied EBITDA margin 85.2% outside the plausible band [-100%, 80%] (effect: quarantined) · CWEN — Implied EBITDA margin 84.9% outside the plausible band [-100%, 80%] (effect: quarantined) · CWEN — Implied EBITDA margin 85.6% outside the plausible band [-100%, 80%] (effect: quarantined) · CWEN — Non-positive EPS; P/E is n/m (effect: excluded from aggregate) · NXXT — Non-positive EPS; P/E is n/m (effect: excluded from aggregate) · NXXT — Non-positive EPS; P/E is n/m (effect: excluded from aggregate) · NXXT — Non-positive EPS; P/E is n/m (effect: excluded from aggregate)

Primary valuation basis and how it was chosen

Primary valuation basis: EV / Revenue on CY2027E consensus (4 of 7 companies eligible; multiples failing the platform's plausibility gates are excluded, never plotted). EV / Revenue on CY2027E is the lead convention: it is the sector-appropriate prior for Renewable Electricity Producers and it clears the coverage gate with 7 of 7 companies (100%). EV / EBITDA, P / E are carried as a cross-check. The basis is selected in two steps: the industry's customary valuation conventions set the order of preference, and each convention is then tested for coverage — the share of companies with a valid, plausibility-checked multiple on the chosen period. A convention is used only when enough companies carry it; the best-covered convention is used, and disclosed, when none clears the threshold. Coverage measured for this report — EV / EBITDA: 4 of 7 companies; EV / rEVenue: 7 of 7 companies; P/E: 4 of 7 companies. 1 company shows a non-meaningful P / E denominator and is excluded from that statistic.

How the multiples and statistics are computed

Enterprise value (EV) is market capitalisation at the as-of date plus total debt minus cash and equivalents from the latest reported balance sheet, reconciled against the platform's stored value and disclosed where the two differ. Forward multiples divide EV (or the share price for P/E) by the consensus estimate for the stated calendar period; trailing multiples use the last twelve months of reported figures from SEC filings. A multiple with a negative or immaterial denominator is treated as not meaningful and excluded from every statistic. Cohort statistics are medians and quartiles over the rated set only; a group median with fewer than three observations is shown as the single company's figure and labelled as such. Valuation tiers cut the rated set at its quartiles (tiers cut at the rated set's quartiles: Premium ≥7.8x, Core 5.2x–7.8x, Discount <5.2x — NeuraCap groupings). Revenue growth compares consecutive calendar-year consensus revenue; EBITDA margin divides consensus EBITDA by consensus revenue for the same period. Figures shown in this report and the calculation behind each: 6.9x = median(ev_revenue CY2027E) (4 rated companies) · 10.1x = median(ev_revenue CY2027E) within Premium tier (n=1) · 6.9x = median(ev_revenue CY2027E) within Core tier (n=2) · 0.7x = median(ev_revenue CY2027E) within Discount tier (n=1)

Precedent transactions: what is on the tape and why

The precedent tape holds the M&A transactions in Renewable Electricity Producers recorded from SEC filings (8-K announcements and the documents they reference), newest first, with each value and multiple linked to the exact passage in the filing that states it. 258 transactions were recorded for this industry; 165 are shown. 93 recorded transactions with neither a disclosed value nor a multiple are omitted because they say nothing about price; they remain in the companion workbook. Deal multiples are enterprise value over the target's last-twelve-month revenue or EBITDA at announcement, as disclosed; they are not restated to the public basis and no spread to the public multiples is claimed. Before a transaction reaches the tape it passes a screen for mirrored or duplicate filings of the same deal, for divestitures where the filer is the seller rather than the buyer, for carve-outs recorded under the parent's name, and for values whose citation describes something other than the price paid (a debt raise, a termination fee); such records are corrected or excluded and the correction is noted. Data-quality notes on this tape: 189 × deal value unit unresolved; 1 × self transaction; 8 × duplicate filings collapsed; 29 × divestiture roles reassigned; 19 × parent financials detached. Case studies lead with the 3 richest stories — disclosed value, a readable multiple, newest first.

Sources

Company financials and transaction terms come from the companies' own SEC filings on EDGAR (10-K, 10-Q and 8-K documents), linked from each figure in the report. Forward figures are analyst consensus estimates for the calendar periods shown. Share prices and market capitalisations are market data as of September 15, 2026.
