TransAlta Corporation remains a buy, supported by resilient Q2 results despite low Alberta energy prices and climate-driven hydro declines. TAC's contract management insulated earnings, securing average prices of $121/MWh versus $29/MWh spot, and reaffirmed 2026 EBITDA guidance of CAD 950M–1.05B. I see TAC as a strategic long-term play on AI-driven electrification, with mid-cap utilities poised for re-rating as energy demand accelerates.
