- Financing summary: In December 2015, GE Energy Financial Services and co-leads BNP Paribas, Citigroup and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group arranged $592 million of senior secured credit facilities to support construction and operation of the plant; Global Infrastructure Partners, John Hancock and First Reserve were identified as preferred-equity investors. In July 2025, Talen announced a two-plant acquisition of Freedom and Guernsey for a net price of $3.5 billion after estimated tax benefits, or approximately $3.8 billion gross; the disclosed consideration was for the portfolio and was not allocated to Freedom alone. At the November 2025 closing, Talen reported using $2.7 billion of senior unsecured notes and a $1.2 billion senior secured term loan B, together with increased revolving-credit and letter-of-credit commitments, to fund the acquisitions. The latter facilities were portfolio-acquisition financing rather than the original project-finance facility. — Talen Energy Expands and Enhances Portfolio with Best-in-Class CCGT Acquisitions in PJM | Thu, 07/17/2025 - 16:01 · confidence: medium

## Data quality

- Reported capacity varies by source and convention: Talen lists 1,049 MW of owned generating capacity, Gemma Power Systems describes a 1,040 MW project, and an EIA-derived record lists 1,105 MW of nameplate capacity. These figures should not be treated as interchangeable. No expansion, retirement or repowering milestone is included in this record.
