Redeemable Stock of Subsidiaries [Abstract] |
Redeemable Stock of Subsidiaries | REDEEMABLE STOCK OF SUBSIDIARIES Noncontrolling interests with redemption features that are not solely within the control of the issuer are classified as temporary equity and are included in Redeemable stock of subsidiaries on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Generally, these instruments are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently adjusted for income and dividends allocated to the noncontrolling interest. Subsequent measurement varies depending on whether the instrument is probable of becoming redeemable. For those securities that are currently redeemable or where it is probable that the instrument will become redeemable, any changes from the carrying value to redemption value are recognized in temporary equity against Retained earnings or Additional paid-in capital in the absence of retained earnings. When the instrument is not probable of becoming redeemable, no adjustment to the carrying value is recognized. The following table is a reconciliation of changes in redeemable stock of subsidiaries for the periods indicated (in millions):

Desarrollos Renovables — On August 5, 2025, AES Pacifico, our wholly-owned subsidiary in Chile, executed a renewables partnership agreement with Global Infrastructure Management, LLC ("GIP") for the sale of a 49% ownership interest in AES Desarrollos Renovables SpA ("Desarrollos Renovables") for total consideration of $77 million. At the execution date, AES Pacifico contributed the Andes Solar III and Punta del Sol renewable development projects to Desarrollos Renovables. Under its renewables partnership agreement with GIP, AES Pacifico will contribute a specified pipeline of renewable development projects to Desarrollos Renovables, and GIP may make additional contributions to maintain its 49% ownership interest. AES Pacifico retained a 51% ownership interest in Desarrollos Renovables. The agreement contains certain redemption features that expire upon certain agreed-upon project milestones being achieved. While not currently in effect, the redemption features are not solely in AES’ control. As a result, the noncontrolling ownership interest is considered temporary equity. The Company has concluded it is probable that these projects will reach the specified milestones. Therefore, the noncontrolling ownership interests are not probable of becoming redeemable and subsequent adjustments to the carrying value were not required. Desarrollos Renovables is reported in the Renewables SBU reportable segment. AES Global Insurance — On April 30, 2025, the Company sold minority interests in AES Global Insurance Company, LLC (“AGIC”), AES’ captive insurance company, and AGIC Holdings, LLC (together with AGIC, the “AGIC Companies”) in exchange for $450 million in total proceeds for Class B units representing 17.5% and 18.0%, respectively, of each entity’s total outstanding units, for a combined ownership (directly and indirectly) of AGIC’s total outstanding units of 32.4% by the Class B Member. The Company continues to own Class A units for the remaining economic interest in the AGIC Companies. The Class B units provide for target distribution amounts for the Class B Member, with a call option for AES for years 2030 through 2035 to redeem these units at pre-agreed redemption prices. As the agreement contains certain redemption features that may require future redemption of the Class B units and are not solely in AES’ control, the noncontrolling interest is considered temporary equity. The contractual target rate of return increases the redemption price on the Class B units and the annual distributions reduce the applicable redemption price. Annual dividends are subject to regulatory and the AGIC Companies Boards’ approval. Through March 31, 2045, the AGIC Companies Boards will approve distributions to the Class B Member to the extent that there is sufficient cash generated from operations each annual period. After March 31, 2045, all dividends are discretionary if the Class B units remain outstanding. It is probable that the AGIC Companies’ performance will generate sufficient cash to require distributions to be made to the Class B Member of an amount that would redeem the instrument after the call option period. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, the noncontrolling interest is probable of becoming redeemable and the carrying value of the Class B units will be adjusted to equal the redemption value each reporting period. As of September 30, 2025, the redemption value of the noncontrolling ownership interest of $464 million exceeded the carrying value; as such, an adjustment of $10 million was recorded to Redeemable stock of subsidiaries on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to increase the carrying value to the Class B units’ redemption value. The AGIC Companies are reported in Corporate and Other. As part of the transaction, it is required that either (i) the AGIC Companies achieve a minimum distribution target to the Class B Member ranging from $146 million to $199 million over pre-defined periods of time ranging from three to five years (the “distribution period”) or (ii) AGIC achieves an average cash basis quarterly net income threshold for the period comprising the relevant distribution period and the four quarters immediately prior to the start of such distribution period. AES can make disproportionate distributions to the Class B Member to meet the minimum distribution target for the distribution period. If, at the end of a distribution period, (1) such cash basis net income threshold is not met and (2) the minimum distribution target for such distribution period is not achieved, AES would be required to address the shortfall by issuing AES common stock (“Shortfall Stock”) to AGIC for the net difference between actual and targeted distributions. Distributions of cash from the sale of Shortfall Stock are subject to regulatory approval and at the discretion of AES. AES Ohio — On April 4, 2025, DPL sold an indirect equity interest in AES Ohio of approximately 30% to Astrid Holdings LP, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDPQ, for total proceeds of approximately $544 million, resulting in an increase to Redeemable stock of subsidiaries of $538 million, net of transaction costs. The Company also recognized an increase to additional paid-in capital and a reduction to retained earnings of $188 million for the excess of the fair value of the shares over the share of the net assets sold. The shareholders’ agreements contain certain redemption features that, while not currently in effect, are not solely in AES’ control. As a result, the noncontrolling ownership interest is considered temporary equity. The Company has concluded that the likelihood of an event that would allow CDPQ to redeem its interest under the terms of the shareholders’ agreements is not probable, but would require redemption at fair value. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, the noncontrolling ownership interest is not probable of becoming redeemable and subsequent adjustments to the carrying value were not required. AES Ohio is reported in the Utilities SBU reportable segment. AES Clean Energy Tax Equity Partnerships — The majority of solar projects in the U.S. have been financed with tax equity structures, in which tax equity investors receive a portion of the economic attributes of the facilities, including tax attributes, that vary over the life of the projects. The substance of such arrangements is that of a preferred structure, whereby tax equity investors are granted preferential returns in the form of significant earnings and tax allocations from the partnership, until a specified internal rate of return is achieved. In some cases, these agreements contain certain partnership rights, though not currently in effect, which may enable the tax equity investor to exit in the future. As a result, the noncontrolling ownership interest is considered temporary equity. Some of these tax equity partnership agreements have redemption features dependent upon the passage of time, therefore the noncontrolling ownership interests are probable of becoming redeemable. As of September 30, 2025, the redemption value of the noncontrolling interest associated with one of the tax equity partnerships exceeded the carrying value; as such, an adjustment of $7 million was recorded to Redeemable stock of subsidiaries on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to increase the carrying value to the redemption value. Certain other tax equity partnership agreements have redemption features that expire upon certain agreed-upon project milestones being achieved. The Company has concluded it is probable that these projects will reach the specified milestones, therefore the noncontrolling ownership interests are not probable of becoming redeemable and subsequent adjustments to the carrying value were not required. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, AES Clean Energy, through multiple transactions, sold noncontrolling interests in project companies to tax equity investors, resulting in increases to Redeemable stock of subsidiaries of $152 million and $172 million, respectively, net of transaction costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, certain renewables development projects with redemption features were placed in service, resulting in the expiration of the redemption features. As a result, noncontrolling ownership interests of $69 million and $155 million, respectively, were reclassified from Redeemable stock of subsidiaries to Noncontrolling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. AES Clean Energy is reported in the Renewables SBU reportable segment. AES Indiana Pike County BESS — The redemption feature of the tax equity partnership agreement was contingent upon the underlying assets being placed in service by a guaranteed date. In March 2025, the Pike County BESS project was placed in service, resulting in the expiration of the redemption feature. As a result, the noncontrolling ownership interest of $38 million was reclassified from Redeemable stock of subsidiaries to Noncontrolling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. AES Indiana is reported in the Utilities SBU reportable segment. AES Clean Energy Development — As part of the formation of AES Clean Energy Development in February 2021, the noncontrolling interest partner received certain partnership rights that would enable them to exit in the future. As a result, the noncontrolling ownership interest was considered temporary equity. In May 2024, these redemption features expired without being exercised and the noncontrolling ownership interest of $577 million was reclassified from Redeemable stock of subsidiaries to Noncontrolling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. AES Clean Energy Development is reported in the Renewables SBU reportable segment.
