The transaction, first announced on 29 October 2025, advances BKV’s closed-loop energy strategy by providing majority ownership and operational control of the Power JV.

The increased ownership enables BKV to include the JV’s financial results in its consolidated accounts, providing greater transparency in overall cash flow. This structure allows investors to more clearly assess the contribution of BKV’s power assets within its wider portfolio.
The new governance arrangements will improve alignment between power operations and BKV’s growth objectives while supporting continued reliability at the Temple facilities.
