what happened

Constellation Energy Corporation has finalized the divestiture of its 606-megawatt Brazos Valley Energy Center, located outside Houston, to LS Power. According to the company's press release distributed by BusinessWire, the transaction fulfills asset sales that the U.S. Department of Justice required in connection with the Calpine acquisition closed in January 2026.

Another transaction covering roughly 4.4 GW of gas assets in the PJM market, also with LS Power, is expected to close before the end of 2026. The Brazos Valley plant operates in Texas within the ERCOT grid.

why it matters

Completing required divestitures reduces the regulatory overhang tied to the Calpine deal. However, the timing and proceeds of the pending PJM sale could affect the company's cash flows for fiscal 2026 and 2027, so market participants will be watching the terms closely. No sale price was included in the announcement.
