Solar resource was slightly below P-50 in the Western US. • 3Q 2026 Plant Availability in the Solar and Flexible Generation segments remained high at 97% and 94%, respectively. Plant Availability for 3Q 2026 in the Wind segment reflected improvement campaigns focused on highest-value assets in CAISO and Texas, while Midwest Wind and East Wind availability were driven by small projects using discontinued wind OEM technology, which are being addressed through an active improvement campaign.
