Talen Energy: The Street Chases AI Chips, I'm Buying The Power Behind Them

  • Talen Energy is transforming from a traditional utility into a critical AI infrastructure provider, with strong positioning in the PJM market and long-term Amazon contracts. Recent acquisitions of gas-fired plants and an expanded AWS deal drive significant cash flow growth, making Talen a unique, scalable energy partner for data centers. Despite risks around leverage, refinancing, and regulatory exposure, Talen's forward valuation is attractive, with FCF yield near 9% and substantial upside potential.
