Should You Forget NextEra Energy and Buy This Nuclear Stock Instead?

Constellation Energy may offer investors slightly more upside potential in the coming years.

Should You Forget NextEra Energy and Buy This Nuclear Stock Instead?

Published October 1, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

Admittedly, I am quite bullish on NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE), and for dividend investors, it has long been a favorite. Yet today I'll make the case for Constellation Energy (NASDAQ: CEG) as potentially the better long-term buy. Here's why.

Constellation operates the most nuclear-energy-producing facilities in the U.S. Data centers require power nonstop, and Constellation can meet those needs with its carbon-free, around-the-clock nuclear capabilities. While NextEra is moving into nuclear as well, the process to get up and running takes time, and Constellation is already there.
