Descriptiontext

Atlantic Power Corporation is an independent power producer that owns and operates power generation assets across eleven U.S. states and two Canadian provinces. The portfolio is diversified by geography, fuel type (natural gas, hydroelectric, biomass), technology, dispatch profile, and offtaker, with a 40% interest in one coal project and approximately 75% of operating projects 100% owned and directly operated and maintained by the company.

The company's commercial model centers on long-term physical generation: electricity and steam are sold predominantly to investment-grade utilities and other creditworthy large customers under power purchase agreements with expiration dates ranging from 2021 to 2043. Pricing is negotiated bilaterally with offtakers rather than publicly disclosed, and revenue is effectively recurring on a contracted basis, with the asset base (rather than a software or platform product) serving as the underlying technology platform. The Atlanta-area operation runs facilities such as the Piedmont Biomass Facility as part of its diversified mix.

Atlantic Power Corporation was incorporated in Canada and headquartered in Dedham, Massachusetts. It was publicly listed on the NYSE (AT) and TSX (ATP) until May 14, 2021, when it was acquired by affiliates of infrastructure funds managed by I Squared Capital in a going-private transaction at US$3.03 per common share and C$22.00 per preferred share, after which the shares were delisted from both exchanges. Following the close, Atlantic Power announced the acquisition of Ridgeline Energy in December 2021 to expand into renewables.
