Equity raise underpins move to majority control in gas-to-power JV.

  • Issued 6.9M shares at $26 (net $170.3M), primarily to finance majority acquisition of BKV-BPP Power or for general purposes if the deal doesn’t close.

  • Denver-based BKV runs four businesses—gas production, gathering, power, and CCUS—positioning itself as a vertically integrated, low-carbon gas player.

Blueprint project to make next-gen nuclear a mainstream backbone for grids and data centers.

  • Grant backs TVA’s Gen III+ SMR at Clinch River—the first U.S. utility project with an accepted BWRX-300 construction permit—targeting commercial ops in the early 2030s.

  • Program is designed to de-risk costs for consumers, build a domestic SMR supply chain and workforce, and cement U.S. nuclear leadership while supporting future digital load growth.

AI-guided exploration hits a 250°F reservoir at ~2,700 ft in western Nevada with >100-MW potential.

  • No surface geothermal signatures or prior exploration; discovery came solely from Zanskar’s AI-based prospecting and drilling.

  • Big Blind joins successes at Lightning Dock (NM) and Pumpernickel (NV), underscoring Zanskar’s push to unlock hidden geothermal resources for clean baseload and large energy users.

Whistling Duck (FL) + Walker Springs I & II (AL) add scale solar while lifting rural economies.

  • Funds 96 MW Whistling Duck (FL) and 209 MW Walker Springs I/II (AL), all using U.S.-made equipment.

  • Expands Origis’ Southeast footprint and supports Advantage Capital’s mission of channeling capital into underserved, job-creating markets.

Southern Energy Renewables’ biomass-to-fuel project aims for carbon-negative jet fuel and methanol.

  • Facility will convert wood waste to green methanol and carbon-negative SAF using CCS; bonds are limited obligations secured by project revenues.

  • Ties into a planned DevvStream–Southern business combination, building a Nasdaq-listed platform focused on low-cost, carbon-negative fuels.

Underground heat and pressure turn rocks + water + N₂ into low-cost, zero-emission NH₃.

  • Net energy-positive process uses ferrous rocks and subsurface conditions, targeting a cheaper, cleaner alternative to conventional Haber-Bosch (≈2% of global energy today).

  • Seed funds expand an AI-driven lab, scale teams, and prep first field pilot as ammonia demand rises 25% in 5 years and imports remain >12% of U.S. supply.

More fish, less stress: oxygen-as-a-service for salmon farms in Chile, Norway, and Canada.

  • Automated systems boost biomass ~10%, cut costs ~5%, and reduce mortality >24% in Chile; also used for sea-lice mitigation in Norway and regulatory adaptation in Canada.

  • S2G’s capital and networks will fund global expansion as aquaculture grows as a low-carbon protein source.

CO₂ + gas to high-value CNFs: Calgary CDU-25 to produce 25 t/yr by mid-2027.

  • Oversubscribed C$5.1M equity round supports construction of the commercial demo unit, which converts captured CO₂ and natural gas into carbon nanofibers.

  • Patented process targets markets like plastics, batteries, and construction, offering a scalable, low-carbon export pathway for Alberta using existing infrastructure.

Key steel + offtake partner for the only federally authorized U.S. Pacific LNG export project.

  • POSCO to supply steel for the 807-mile pipeline and take 1 MTPA LNG for 20 years FOB; also makes a pre-FID equity investment.

  • Glenfarne now has 11 MTPA in preliminary offtakes (Tokyo Gas, JERA, CPC, PTT, etc.), with a phased plan toward 20 MTPA exports.

Spending leans into Permian/DJ/Bakken, global offshore, and low-carbon “new energies.”

  • Upstream capex around $17B (over half in the U.S.), with ~$7B targeting offshore growth in Guyana, Eastern Med, and GOM; ~$1B downstream, ~$1B to lower carbon intensity/new energies.

  • Affiliate capex $1.3–1.7B, including chemicals projects starting 2027; maintains focus on high-return barrels, disciplined growth, and shareholder returns.

De-lever, de-capex, and double down on upstream drilling runway.

  • Sells Dovetail Midstream interest to Targa Northern Delaware for $111M plus up to $60M in earn-outs; compressor assets to follow (~$10M, early 2026).

  • Proceeds go to debt reduction, taxes, and costs, while securing long-term flow assurance and freeing Riley from future midstream capex.
