Constellation Energy Corp (NASDAQ:CEG) is making waves in the energy sector, showcasing an impressive stock performance and exciting growth prospects.
The stock has increased over 60% in the past month, 146% year-to-date, and 155% over the past year.
This surge is driven by multiple factors, including the company's commitment to providing clean energy solutions through natural gas, electricity, and solar options via its partnership with Sunrun Inc (NASDAQ:RUN) in six states, along with Washington, D.C.
A Game-Changing Partnership With Microsoft
The latest catalyst propelling Constellation Energy into the spotlight is its significant deal with Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT). This groundbreaking agreement will allow Constellation to restart the Three Mile Island Unit 1 nuclear power plant, which had been shut down for economic reasons five years ago.
The deal, characterized as the largest power-purchasing agreement in history, will see Microsoft purchase all the power generated by the facility, primarily to support its data center operations. This initiative is set to add over 800 megawatts of carbon-free energy to the grid, enough to power 700,000 homes.

In financial terms, Constellation Energy expects to invest around $1.6 billion to bring the nuclear facility back online by 2028. This investment is anticipated to significantly accelerate the company's earnings growth rate, projecting an annual increase of at least 13% through the end of the decade. This marks an upgrade from the previous forecast of 10%, which is impressive given that most industry peers are eyeing mid-single-digit growth rates.

Constellation Energy's strategic focus on nuclear energy, combined with strong technical indicators and a partnership with Microsoft, positions it favorably for future growth.
