Leading asset manager Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE: BAM), for example, formed Brookfield Renewable Partners, while top-tier utility NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE) created NextEra Energy Partners. Both of those entities have a similar aim, which is to build and buy clean energy assets supported by long-term, fixed-price contracts and use the associated cash flow to pay an above-average dividend. Roughly half of that growth will come from the improving profitability of its existing portfolio as the company reduces costs, signs higher-rate contracts as the current below-market ones expire, and benefits from inflation escalators on its other agreements.
