The report comes after Elliott sent a letter to NRG’s board last month, pushing for a boardroom overhaul. The activist investor has had urged the company to conduct a review of its home services strategy and add new independent directors.
Elliott and NRG did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for comment.
Elliott had disclosed a more than 13% economic interest in the utility company in May, which it said was worth around $1 billion, without specifying how much, if any, of that interest was in NRG stock.
