Company File
Owns the Susquehanna nuclear and Cumulus data-center campus feeding AWS; post-bankruptcy compound.
Plate I — Pillar-Purity Score
Behind-the-meter AWS campus — zero-degrees-of-separation AI revenue.
Methodology — How we score
Plate II — The Thesis
Why it’s on the list.
Talen owns Susquehanna nuclear and sits on the Cumulus behind-the-meter campus already hosting AWS. It is the cleanest direct-exposure name in the whole list — revenue scales with the specific data-center customer on-site. Post-bankruptcy capital structure keeps the equity levered to upside.
