What Northland Power does
Northland Power Inc. is a Toronto-headquartered, TSX-listed (NPI) global power producer founded in 1987 that develops, builds, owns, and operates clean and renewable electricity infrastructure assets. The company operates approximately 3.2 GW (net 2.8 GW) of generating capacity across offshore wind, onshore wind, solar PV, concentrated solar, natural gas combined-cycle, and battery energy storage, plus a regulated electricity distribution utility (Empresa de Energía de Boyacá / EBSA) in Colombia. Operations span eight countries — Canada, the United States, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Spain, Taiwan, and South Korea — with a development pipeline of roughly 12 GW targeting 7 GW of gross operating capacity by 2030.
The business sells electricity through long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) of 20-30 years with utilities, grid operators, and large corporate offtakers such as TSMC (30-year, 294 MW from Hai Long), Shell Energy Europe (5-year for Nordsee One output), and the IESO (20-year contract for Oneida storage). Development-stage flagship projects include the 1.2 GW Baltic Power offshore wind farm in Poland (joint venture with ORLEN, featuring 76 x 15 MW Vestas turbines, scheduled for 2026 completion) and the 1.022 GW Hai Long offshore wind farm in Taiwan (joint venture with Mitsui 40%, Northland 30.6%, Gentari 29.4%, full operations expected 2027). The 250 MW / 1,000 MWh Oneida Energy Storage facility in Ontario is the largest grid-scale battery storage facility in Canada.
The revenue model is subscription-recurring in nature, anchored by contracted offtake agreements and regulated tariff structures rather than spot-market electricity sales. Q1 2026 revenue was approximately $775 million (+19.4% YoY) with net income of $161 million (+45% YoY), and 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance is $1.45-1.65 billion. In November 2025, the company cut its dividend by 40% (from C$1.20 to C$0.72 annually) to preserve approximately $125 million of annual cash flow for offshore wind project completion, which triggered a 27-30% decline in the share price. The company maintains a diversified public capital structure including common shares, multiple preferred share series, and convertible debentures listed on the TSX.
