Constellation Energy Corporation is near its all-time high after reports that the company has secured approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for its previously announced $16.4B acquisition of Calpine Corporation.

The deal is expected to add $2 billion to Constellation Energy Corporation’s free cash flow annually and create the largest ‘low emission’ power generation company with nearly 60 GW of capacity from zero- and low-emission sources, including nuclear, natural gas, and geothermal.
