(a) MW capacity of the facility without taking into account NRG ownership percentage
(b) Actual capacity can vary depending on factors including weather conditions, operational conditions, and other factors. Additionally, ERCOT requires periodic demonstration of capability, and the capacity may vary individually and in the aggregate from time to time
(c) The cogeneration facility operated on a seasonal basis in ERCOT during 2020. Carbon capture operations were suspended in May 2020 with the downturn in oil prices. The facility is fully capable of operating and can be brought back online when economics improve.
(d) NRG leases 100% interests in the Cottonwood facility through a facility lease agreement expiring in May 2025 and operates the Cottonwood facility
