Gigawatts of capacity, I assume? What's the capacity factor of their investments, I wonder? E.g. how many GW-years of electricity do they generate in a year on average?

It's much more important these days to measure progress is integral terms like low-carbon energy generated/year rather than max low-carbon power when in ideal conditions.

It's even better to measure with things like lifecycle mass CO2-equiv/kWh avoided, which avoids traps of crediting things like forest combustion as "green" like drax does in the UK.
