PR Newswire
STAMFORD, Conn., May 18, 2026
STAMFORD, Conn., May 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Alpha Generation, LLC (“AlphaGen”), together with ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC (with its affiliates, “ArcLight”), today announced that it has completed the acquisition from Onward Energy Holdings, LLC of Brandywine Power (“Brandywine”), an approximately 250 MW combined-cycle generating facility located in Prince George’s County, Maryland, within PJM Interconnection’s PEPCO Zone.
The acquisition further strengthens AlphaGen’s position as the largest private independent power producer in the United States, expanding its scale in strategically important power markets and enhancing its ability to deliver reliable, dispatchable capacity to utilities, electric cooperatives, municipalities and large-load customers across the Mid-Atlantic.
Brandywine provides essential capacity, energy, and ancillary services that help support reliability across the Mid-Atlantic, including the Washington, D.C. metro area and is well positioned to benefit from AI and electrification-related power demand growth.
The facility is located near AlphaGen’s Keys Energy Center, which recently signed a 10-year electricity and capacity supply agreement with Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative, creating opportunities for operational coordination, commercial flexibility, and long-term offtake solutions across a broader regional footprint.
“Brandywine is a strategic asset that benefits from AlphaGen’s scale and operational capabilities, and ArcLight’s long-term infrastructure investment approach,” said Curt Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of AlphaGen. “This acquisition strengthens our ability to offer durable, contract-backed solutions in markets where reliability matters most. Our portfolio scale allows us to reliably dispatch power, manage operational risk, and work constructively with regulators and customers to support long‑term capacity and energy needs.”
Taken together with the nearly 3 GW of uprate and expansion projects in PJM across existing AlphaGen sites, the transaction provides additional capacity to support long-term offtake agreements across a portfolio of complementary, high-quality generation assets that benefit from shared expertise and operational synergies.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
