Underweight -> Equal Weight

Reason

Barclays analyst Betty Jiang Friday afternoon upgraded Net Power to Equal Weight from Underweight with a price target of $3, up from $2. The company is impairing the oxy-combustion technology due to slow market adoption and is pausing development on the first utility-scale plant, the analyst tells investors in a research note. However, the firm believes New Power's new partnership to develop gas power with CCS is "promising" and improves its long-term outlook even as long-term financing uncertainties remain.

About NPWR

NET Power Inc. is an energy technology company developing its proprietary NET Power Cycle, which transforms natural gas into power. The NET Power Cycle is designed to inherently capture carbon dioxide (CO2) while producing virtually no air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides (SOX), nitrogen oxide (NOX) and other particulates. The NET Power Cycle is designed to achieve electricity generation through its highly recuperative oxy-combustion process. This process involves the combination of two technologies: oxy-combustion and supercritical CO2 (sCO2) power cycle. In the Net Power Cycle, CO2 produced in oxy-combustion is immediately captured in a sCO2 cycle that produces electricity. As CO2 is added through oxy-combustion and recirculated, excess captured CO2 is siphoned from the cycle at high purity for export to permanent storage or utilization. Its customers include electric utilities, oil and gas companies, midstream oil and gas companies, technology companies, and industrial facilities.
