Net Power Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results and Provides Business Update
Key Highlights for the Quarter
-
Integrated Product Configuration: Completed techno-economic analysis for integrating cost-effective gas turbine capacity (50MW-200MW) into Net Power projects. Results indicate significant operational, economic, and commercial synergies. This configuration will be implemented at Project Permian, targeting a levelized cost of energy (LCOE) below
$100 /megawatt hour (MWh). -
SN1 Cost Reduction: Identified further cost reductions for SN1, with projected total installed cost of
$1.6-1.9 billion while preserving product performance. -
OBBBA Enhances Economics: Recent tax legislation, including expanded 45Q credits for Class II sequestration and reinstated bonus depreciation, improves project economics, yielding approximately
$20 /MWh LCOE improvement at Project Permian. -
Robust financial position: Ended the quarter with approximately
$475 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments.
Other Updates:
At its La Porte test facility, the Company completed site repairs and resumed technology validation work, achieving over 150 hours of testing in July. Phase 1 testing is expected to be completed in 2025 and the Company expects to begin phase 2 testing this year with completion in early 2026. Preparations continue for testing Phases 3 and 4, expected to be completed in 2026 and 2027, respectively.
Net Power continued the development of its MISO project, which remains on track for early deployment. Net Power’s 300MW interconnect application is subject to the progress timeline of the MISO DPP-2023 cycle. The Company’s sequestration providers are progressing their Class VI sequestration applications through the EPA’s Class VI permit process. Similar to Project Permian, Net Power is evaluating the integrated product configuration at this location.
