Brookfield Renewable (BEPC) Eyes Long-Term Gains Despite Q2 Miss

Brookfield Renewable Corp (NYSE:BEPC) is one of the best alternative energy stocks to buy right now. The company reported disappointing Q2 2025 results on August 1, with an EPS of -$4.16 versus the expected $0.01, and revenue of $991 million falling 44% short of forecasts. Despite the miss, the company maintains a robust liquidity position of $4.7 billion, providing financial flexibility for future investments.

Operationally, Brookfield showed strength in key segments. Funds from Operations (FFO) rose 10% year-over-year to $371 million, driven by a 50% surge in hydroelectric FFO and a 40% increase in distributed energy. The company also commissioned 2.1 gigawatts of new renewable capacity, reinforcing its commitment to clean energy expansion.

Looking ahead, Brookfield remains optimistic, targeting over 10% FFO growth per unit and 12%–15% long-term total returns. CEO Conor Teske emphasized the need for build-ready projects over capital or demand, and spotlighted battery technology as the fastest-growing area within the company’s platform.

Brookfield Renewable Corp (NYSE:BEPC) manages a diverse portfolio of renewable energy and sustainability-focused assets. Its holdings span hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar, distributed generation, pumped storage, carbon capture, cogeneration, biomass, and eFuel technologies. The company operates approximately 13,948 megawatts of installed capacity across hydro, wind, solar, and storage systems, with facilities located in Brazil, Colombia, North America, and Europe. This global footprint supports Brookfield’s mission to deliver clean, reliable energy solutions at scale.
