The company is racking up power purchase agreements

In the second quarter, the company reported new power purchase agreements (PPAs) for more than 2,600 MW of development projects. In the summer of 2025, the company signed a PPA with Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) to deliver up to 3,000 MW of hydroelectric capacity in the U.S.

It also has a PPA with Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) that it signed in 2024 to provide up to 10.5 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy power, using carbon-free generation capacity across North America and Europe between 2026 and 2030. The framework is structured to help Microsoft reach its target of matching 100% of its electricity consumption with zero-carbon energy. The deal is the largest corporate clean energy framework in history.

Brookfield Renewable is one of the few companies with the global scale needed to meet multi-GW corporate commitments.

The dividend is above 5% and is growing

Brookfield Renewable's dividend yield, at its current share price, is around 5.12%. The company raised its quarterly dividend by 5% this year to $0.392, the sixth consecutive year it has increased its dividend.

The company's dividend is a priority, and it has said its goal is to grow its dividend by 5% to 9% annually, delivering a total return of 12% to 15% annually. Over the past three years, its total return has been slightly more than 28%, and its dividend has grown by 16%.

The company's funds from operations (FFO) payout ratio, as of the second quarter, was 63%, leaving room for continued increases.

The stock is priced for buying

Brookfield Renewable is trading at slightly more than one times trailing sales and one times forward sales. That's a historically low level for the stock, which was trading at about five times trailing sales five years ago.

The company is healthy, and with another quarter like Q2, it should be enough to give the stock a spike. Brookfield Renewable reported a record $421 million in FFO in the quarter, or $0.62 per unit, up 13% and 11%, year over year, respectively. Revenue was $1.71 billion, up 1% over the same quarter a year ago.
