Brookfield Renewable (BEP) outlines 2025 executive compensation structure
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. filed a Statement of Executive Compensation for the year ended December 31, 2025. The partnership is managed by its general partner, and all senior management services are provided by a Brookfield Service Provider under a Master Services Agreement.
The named executive officers are employed and compensated by Brookfield, not by BEP, with pay determined under Brookfield’s compensation philosophy emphasizing long-term value creation. Key elements include base salary, annual cash bonuses and participation in long-term incentive plans such as options, restricted shares, escrowed shares and deferred share units tied mainly to Brookfield Class A shares.
In 2025, total annual compensation ranged from about $1.16 million to $6.20 million among the five named executives, with a substantial portion delivered through long-term incentives. A performance graph shows BEP LP Units rising from an index level of 100 in 2021 to 171.7 in 2025, slightly below the S&P/TSX Composite Index Total Return at 173.8 over the same period.
The disclosure explains that BEP has no employment contracts or change-of-control arrangements with these executives and does not reimburse Brookfield for long-term incentive participation. It also outlines how options, DSUs and share-based awards are treated on retirement, termination, resignation or death, confirming that no automatic incremental entitlements are triggered by these events.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025
INTRODUCTION
This Statement of Executive Compensation is filed pursuant to Section 11.6 of National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations under Canadian securities laws. Unless the context requires otherwise, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning given to them in Appendix A.
COMPENSATION
Our Management
Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (“BEP”) is managed by its general partner, Brookfield Renewable Partners Limited (the “Managing General Partner”) through a board of directors. The Managing General Partner does not have any executive officers or employees. Instead, management services are provided to BEP, Brookfield Renewable Energy L.P. (“BRELP”) and the Holding Entities by our Service Provider under the Master Services Agreement. The fees payable under the Master Services Agreement are set forth in our Annual Report under Item 6.A “Directors and Senior Management — Our Master Services Agreement — Management Fee”. In addition, Brookfield is entitled to receive incentive distributions from BRELP described in our Annual Report under Item 7.B “Related Party Transactions — Incentive Distributions”.
Members of Brookfield’s senior management and other individuals from Brookfield’s global affiliates are drawn upon to fulfill the Service Provider’s obligations under our Master Services Agreement. These individuals are not compensated by BEP or our Managing General Partner, instead they are and will continue to be compensated by Brookfield.
The individuals listed below as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Service Provider performed functions similar to those of a chief executive officer and chief financial officer for BEP and the other individuals are the three next most highly paid executive officers of the Service Provider providing management services to BEP for the year ended December 31, 2025 (collectively, our “Named Executive Officers” or “NEOs”):
Connor Teskey, Chief Executive Officer of the Service Provider;
Patrick Taylor, Chief Financial Officer of the Service Provider;
Wyatt Hartley, Co-President of the Service Provider;
Jennifer Mazin, Co-President and General Counsel of the Service Provider; and
Natalie Adomait, Chief Operating Officer of the Service Provider.
Under Canadian securities laws, we are required to disclose the following executive compensation information relating to the NEOs. The compensation philosophy of Brookfield, which determines the compensation of our senior management, and the compensation elements paid to them outlined below, are provided for full disclosure.
| - 1 - |
Compensation Philosophy of Brookfield
Brookfield determines the compensation of its employees and the executives and senior managers of its subsidiaries, which includes the NEOs. Brookfield has adopted an approach to compensation that is intended to foster an entrepreneurial environment that encourages management to consider the risks associated with the decisions they make and take actions that will create long-term sustainable cash flow growth and will improve long-term shareholder value.
Compensation Elements Paid by Brookfield
The primary elements of total compensation paid by Brookfield to the NEOs include base salary, annual management incentive plan awards (“Cash Bonus”) and participation in long-term incentive plans.
In order to create alignment of interests between Brookfield shareholders and management while minimizing management’s ability to benefit from taking risks that increase performance in the short-term at the expense of long-term value creation, executives receive a substantial portion of their compensation in awards under the long-term incentive plans which:
· reinforces the focus on long-term value creation;
· aligns the interests of executives with other shareholders; and
· encourages management to follow a rigorous forward-looking risk assessment process when making business decisions.
Total compensation for executives who are at earlier stages in their careers also include awards pursuant to long-term incentive plans but a larger percentage of their total compensation is in the form of base salary and Cash Bonus awards in recognition of their personal needs and to be competitive within the asset management industry. Changes in total compensation from year to year may vary more for these executives as they take on increasing responsibility.
As executives progress within Brookfield, they have the opportunity to reinvest their Cash Bonus into deferred share units under the DSUP (as defined below), or restricted shares under the Restricted Stock Plan (as defined below), thereby enabling them to increase their ownership interests. In addition, notwithstanding the fact that regular total compensation for individuals may not change significantly year over year, management may request that the management resources and compensation committee of Brookfield Corporation or the governance, nominating and compensation committee of Brookfield Asset Management, as applicable (the “Brookfield Compensation Committee”) grant additional discretionary awards to executives who have taken on additional responsibilities and/or as a way to periodically recognize executives who have consistently performed at an exceptional level. These special awards are typically made as long-term incentive plan awards and assist Brookfield in retaining key employees who have the potential to add value to Brookfield over the longer term.
BEP has no control over the form or amount of the compensation paid by Brookfield to the NEOs and participation in long-term incentive plans is not allocated to or payable by BEP.
Base Salaries
Base salaries of the NEOs are determined and approved by Brookfield. Base salaries tend to remain fairly constant from one year to another unless the scope and responsibility of a position has changed. Base salaries deliver the only form of fixed compensation for the NEOs and are not intended to be the most significant component of their compensation.
| - 2 - |
Cash Bonus and Long-Term Incentive Plans
Given the NEOs’ focus on long-term decision making, the impact of which is difficult to assess in the short term, Brookfield believes that a heavy emphasis on annual incentives and a formulaic calculation based on specific operational or individual targets may not appropriately reflect their long-term objectives. Accordingly, the Cash Bonus and compensation under long-term incentive plans are determined primarily through an evaluation of the progress made in executing Brookfield Renewable’s strategy and the performance of the business as a whole. Significant contributions to the business strategy of Brookfield are also considered.
The level of Cash Bonus and long-term incentive compensation granted to each NEO is discretionary. While no specific weight is given to the achievement of any individual objective, consideration is given to their performance and for making decisions and taking actions consistent with Brookfield’s long-term focus. These pertain, in part, to Brookfield Renewable’s performance, assessed in part by considering Funds From Operations, capital improvement programs, operational expenditures, environment, health and safety programs, growth of its portfolio, financing activities, as well as sound management and governance practices.
The goal is to align management’s interests with those of Brookfield’s shareholders. This is achieved by basing the most significant portion of management’s rewards, and therefore the opportunity for personal wealth creation, on the value of the Class A Limited Voting Shares of Brookfield Corporation (“BN Class A Shares”) and/or the Class A Limited Voting Shares of Brookfield Asset Management (“Brookfield Asset Management Class A Shares” and, together with the BN Class A Shares, the “Brookfield Class A Shares”). Executives in dedicated fund management groups may have compensation arrangements that also include a component more directly linked to the long-term performance of the fund being managed. However, payments under such plans are directly related to the value created for the fund’s investors which will, in turn, benefit Brookfield. The purpose of these long-term incentive plans is to reinforce the focus on long-term value creation, align the interests of executives with other shareholders of Brookfield and encourage management to follow a rigorous, forward-looking risk assessment process when making business decisions. These compensation arrangements are intended to ensure that Brookfield is able to attract and retain highly qualified executives. Total compensation is competitive with our peers and enables us to attract new executives while the vesting of awards encourages executives to remain with Brookfield.
Brookfield has four forms of long-term incentive plans, of which the terms are substantially the same between each of Brookfield Corporation and Brookfield Asset Management, in which NEOs of BEP participate. They are described below in more detail:
| 1. | Management Share Option Plans (the “MSOP”). The MSOP govern the granting to executives of options to purchase Brookfield Class A Shares at a fixed price. The options typically vest as to 20% per year commencing on the first anniversary of the date of the award and are exercisable over a ten-year period. The MSOP are administered by the respective Brookfield board of directors. Options are typically granted to the NEOs in late February or early March of each year as part of the annual compensation review. The Brookfield Compensation Committees have a specific written mandate to review and approve executive compensation and make recommendations for approval to the respective Brookfield board of directors with respect to the proposed allocation of options to the NEOs based, in part, upon the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer of the Service Provider. The number of options granted to NEOs is determined based on the scope of their roles and responsibilities and their success in achieving Brookfield Renewable’s objectives. Consideration is also given to the number and value of previous option grants. Since the annual option awards are generally made during a blackout period, the effective grant date for such options is set six business days after the end of the blackout period. The exercise price for such options is the volume-weighted average trading price for the respective Brookfield Class A Shares on the NYSE for the five business days preceding the effective grant date. |
| 2. | Deferred Share Unit Plans (the “DSUP”). The DSUP provide for the issuance of deferred share units (“DSUs”), the value of which are equal to the value of the respective Brookfield Class A Shares. DSUs vest over periods of up to five years, with the exception of DSUs awarded in lieu of a Cash Bonus which vest immediately. DSUs can only be redeemed for cash upon cessation of employment through retirement, resignation, termination or death. The DSUP are administered by the respective Brookfield Compensation Committee. DSUs are granted based on the value of the respective Brookfield Class A Shares at the time of the award (the “DSU Allotment Price”). In the case of DSUs acquired through the reinvestment of Cash Bonus awards, the DSU Allotment Price is equal to the exercise price for options granted at the same time as described above. Holders of DSUs will be allotted additional DSUs as dividends are paid on the respective Brookfield Class A Shares on the same basis as if the dividends were reinvested pursuant to Brookfield’s dividend reinvestment plans. These additional DSUs are subject to the same vesting provisions as the underlying DSUs. The redemption value of DSUs will be equivalent to the market value of an equivalent number of the respective Brookfield Class A Shares on the cessation of employment with Brookfield. |
| - 3 - |
| 3. | Restricted Stock Plans. Brookfield’s restricted stock plans (the “Restricted Stock Plan”) and the escrowed stock plans (the “Escrowed Stock Plan”) were established to provide Brookfield and its executives with alternatives to Brookfield’s existing plans which would allow executives to increase their share ownership. Restricted shares (“Restricted Shares” or “RS”) have the advantage of allowing executives to become Brookfield shareholders, receive dividends and to have full ownership of the shares after the restriction period ends. Restricted Shares vest over a period of up to five years, with the exception of Restricted Shares awarded in lieu of a Cash Bonus which vest immediately. Restricted Shares must be held until the vesting date (or in certain jurisdictions, until the fifth anniversary of the award date). Holders of Restricted Shares receive dividends that are paid on the respective Brookfield Class A Shares in the form of cash, unless otherwise elected. The Escrowed Stock Plan governs the award of non-voting common shares (“Escrowed Shares” or “ES”) of one or more private companies (each an “Escrowed Company”) to executives and other individuals designated by the respective Brookfield board of directors. Each Escrowed Company is capitalized with common shares and preferred shares issued to Brookfield. Each Escrowed Company uses its resources to directly and indirectly purchase Brookfield Class A Shares or common shares of Brookfield Asset Management ULC (“ULC Shares”). Dividends paid to each Escrowed Company on the Brookfield Class A Shares or ULC Shares acquired by the Escrowed Company are used to pay dividends on the preferred shares which are held by Brookfield. The respective Brookfield Class A Shares and ULC Shares acquired by an Escrowed Company are not voted. Escrowed Shares typically vest 20% each year commencing on the date of the first anniversary of the award date. Each holder may exchange Escrowed Shares for Brookfield Class A Shares issued from treasury no more than ten years from the award date. The value of the Brookfield Class A Shares issued to a holder on an exchange is equal to the increase in value of the Brookfield Class A Shares held by the applicable Escrowed Company. The respective Brookfield Compensation Committee makes recommendations for approval by the respective Brookfield board of directors with respect to the proposed allocation of Escrowed Shares to the NEOs based, in part, upon the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer of the Service Provider. |
Key Accomplishments
Listed below are key accomplishments that drove Brookfield Renewable’s business plan and influenced the Cash Bonus and long-term incentive awards received by each of the NEOs in 2025:
| · | In April 2025, following completion of an initial 53% controlling stake acquisition, a mandatory cash tender offer and squeeze-out procedure, Brookfield Renewable, together with institutional partners, completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in Neoen S.A., a leading global renewable energy developer headquartered in France with 8 GW of operating and in construction renewable power and energy storage assets, as well as a 20 GW development pipeline, for a total acquisition price of approximately $6.7 billion ($537 million net to Brookfield Renewable). |
| · | In May 2025, Brookfield Renewable, together with institutional partners, completed the acquisition of a diversified operating and development platform in the U.S. with 3.9 GW of operating and under construction renewable power and storage assets and an over 30 GW development pipeline for approximately $1.4 billion ($299 million net to Brookfield Renewable). |
| · | In July 2025, Brookfield Renewable signed a Hydro Framework Agreement with Google to deliver up to 3,000 MW of hydroelectric capacity in the U.S. by the end of 2032, including the first two contracts for 670 MW of capacity. |
| · | In October 2025, Brookfield and Cameco Corporation, our partner in Westinghouse, entered into an agreement with the U.S. Government to establish a strategic partnership which is expected to accelerate the scale deployment of Westinghouse’s nuclear reactor technologies in the United States and globally. Under the terms of the agreement, once the U.S. Government makes a final investment decision and enters into definitive agreements to complete the construction of new Westinghouse nuclear reactors in the United States with an aggregate value of at least $80 billion before January 2029, a contingent interest in Westinghouse will vest for the U.S. Government whereby it will be entitled to receive 20% of any cash distributions in excess of $17.5 billion made by Westinghouse. Brookfield Renewable and its institutional partners own a 51% interest in Westinghouse (11% net to Brookfield Renewable). |
| - 4 - |
| · | In October 2025, Brookfield Renewable completed the acquisition of an incremental 15% ownership in Isagen S.A. for $1 billion. |
| · | In December 2025, Brookfield Renewable, together with institutional partners, completed the sale of a 1.5 GW portfolio of operating distributed generation assets and a 47% interest in a 2.3 GW distributed generation development platform in the United States for base proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion ($449 million net to Brookfield Renewable). |
