NRG's power plants provide more than 24,000 megawatts of generation capacity—enough to supply more than 20 million homes. In May 2009, NRG acquired the retail operations of Reliant Energy; NRG's retail services serves 1.6 million customers in Texas. The retail operations continue to operate under the Reliant Energy name, while the remainder of the former Reliant Energy became RRI Energy.
NRG also owns, or has interests in, generating facilities in Europe, Australia and Latin America. The company's operations include baseload, intermediate, peaking, and cogeneration facilities, thermal energy production and energy resource recovery facilities.
In late 2005, NRG Energy bought Texas-based Texas Genco from a group of private equity firms for a price of roughly $5.9 billion.
On June 19, 2006 NRG Energy filed a Letter Of Intent with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to build two 1358-MWe ABWRs at the South Texas Project site. This was the first nuclear plant license application filed in the United States in 29 years.
