Calpine ranks as the nation’s largest generator of electricity from natural gas and geothermal resources, while Constellation is the No. 1 nuclear power producer.
The partners say the deal creates the nation’s top clean energy provider, serving customers from coast to coast.
“By combining Constellation’s unmatched expertise in zero-emission nuclear energy with Calpine’s industry-leading, best-in-class, low-carbon natural gas and geothermal generation fleets, we will be able to offer the broadest array of energy products and services available in the industry,” said Joe Dominguez, Constellation CEO.
