Talen Energy (NASDAQ:TLN) signed a seven-year capacity agreement covering 750 MW from its Guernsey Power Station, with expected annual revenue of approximately US$100 million.

The agreement covers delivery years 2029/2030 through 2035/2036 and adds to the company's contracted electricity capacity arrangements in the PJM market.

Talen said the agreement strengthens its long-term revenue visibility and supports its strategy of securing contracted capacity revenues.

Combined with cleared capacity auctions, the new agreement provides approximately US$1 billion in cumulative capacity revenue visibility over ten years, while increasing contracted gross margin to 40% through 2036 alongside the company's long-term AWS contract.

Separate agreements cover Guernsey's remaining 588 MW of available capacity for delivery year 2029/2030 and 702 MW from Waterford Energy Center for 2029/2030 through 2031/2032.

Talen Energy operates power generation facilities and supplies electricity and capacity to wholesale markets, including PJM, which serves customers across multiple US states.

Its growing portfolio of long-term capacity agreements includes arrangements supporting major electricity consumers, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), as the company seeks greater revenue visibility from its power generation assets.
