All forward-looking information is given pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of applicable securities legislation.

The forecasts and projections that make up the forward-looking information contained herein are based on certain factors or assumptions which include, but are not limited to: the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and requested rate decisions; the absence of a material increase in the costs of compliance with environmental laws following the completion of the Kentucky Power Transaction; the absence of material adverse regulatory decisions being received and the expectation of regulatory stability; the absence of any material equipment breakdown or failure; availability of financing (including tax equity financing and self-monetization transactions for U.S. federal tax credits) on commercially reasonable terms and the stability of credit ratings of the Corporation and its subsidiaries; the absence of unexpected material liabilities or uninsured losses; the continued availability of commodity supplies and stability of commodity prices; the absence of sustained interest rate increases or significant currency exchange rate fluctuations; the absence of significant operational, financial or supply chain disruptions or liability; including relating to import controls and tariffs; the continued ability to maintain systems and facilities to ensure their continued performance; the absence of a severe and prolonged downturn in general economic, credit, social or market conditions; the successful and timely development and construction of new projects; the closing of pending acquisitions substantially in accordance with the expected timing for such acquisitions; the absence of capital project or financing cost overruns; sufficient liquidity and capital resources; the continuation of long term weather patterns and trends; the absence of significant counterparty defaults; the continued competitiveness of electricity pricing when compared with alternative sources of energy; the realization of the anticipated benefits of the Corporation’s acquisitions and joint ventures; the absence of a change in applicable laws, political conditions, public policies and directions by governments, materially negatively affecting the Corporation; the ability to obtain and maintain licenses and permits; maintenance of adequate insurance coverage; the absence of material fluctuations in market energy prices; the absence of material disputes with taxation authorities or changes to applicable tax laws; continued maintenance of information technology infrastructure and the absence of a material breach of cybersecurity; favourable relations with external stakeholders; favourable labour relations; the realization of the anticipated benefits of the Kentucky Power Transaction, including that it will be accretive to the Corporation’s Adjusted Net Earnings per common share; the availability of a favourable resolution regarding the failure to meet the Mitchell Agreements Condition (as defined herein); that the Corporation will be able to successfully integrate newly acquired entities, and the absence of any material adverse changes to such entities prior to closing; the successful transfer of operational control over the Mitchell Plant to Wheeling Power Company; the Mitchell Plant being transferred or retired in accordance with the Corporation’s expectations; the absence of undisclosed liabilities of entities being acquired; that such entities will maintain constructive regulatory relationships with state regulatory authorities; the ability of the Corporation to retain key personnel of acquired entities and the value of such employees; no adverse developments in the business and affairs of the sellers during the period when transitional services are provided to the Corporation in connection with any acquisition; the ability of the Corporation to satisfy its liabilities and meet its debt service obligations following completion of any acquisition; the

Although the Corporation has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Some of these and other factors are discussed in more detail under the heading Enterprise Risk Management in this MD&A and under the heading Enterprise Risk Factors, in the Corporation’s MD&A for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual MD&A”) and in the Corporation's most recent AIF.

Forward-looking information contained herein is provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding the Corporation and its business, operations, risks, financial performance, financial position and cash flows as at and for the periods indicated and to present information about management’s current expectations and plans relating to the future and the reader is cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking information contained herein is made as of the date of this document and based on the plans, beliefs, estimates, projections, expectations, opinions and assumptions of management on the date hereof. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. While subsequent events and developments may cause the Corporation’s views to change, the Corporation disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking information or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures

AQN uses a number of financial measures to assess the performance of its business lines. Some measures are calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, each as defined in Canadian National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. AQN’s method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

The terms “Adjusted Net Earnings”, “Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”), “Adjusted Funds from Operations”, "Net Energy Sales", "Net Utility Sales" and "Divisional Operating Profit", which are used throughout this MD&A, are non-GAAP financial measures. An explanation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures is set out below and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, in each case, can be found in this MD&A. In addition, “Adjusted Net Earnings” is presented throughout this MD&A on a per share basis. Adjusted Net Earnings per common share is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by many investors to compare companies on the basis of ability to generate cash from operations. AQN uses these calculations to monitor the amount of cash generated by AQN. AQN uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of AQN without the effects of (as applicable): depreciation and amortization expense, income tax expense or recoveries, acquisition and transition costs, certain litigation expenses, interest expense, gain or loss on derivative financial instruments, write down of intangibles and property, plant and equipment, earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, non-service pension and post-employment costs, cost related to tax equity financing, costs related to management succession and executive retirement, costs related to prior period adjustments due to changes in tax law, costs related to condemnation proceedings, financial impacts on the Company's Senate Wind Facility from the significantly elevated pricing that persisted in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas market over several days (the "Market Disruption Event") as a result of the February 2021 extreme winter storm conditions experienced in Texas and parts of the central U.S. (the “Midwest Extreme Weather Event”), gain or loss on foreign exchange, earnings or loss from discontinued operations, changes in value of investments carried at fair value, and other typically non-recurring or unusual items. AQN adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and are not factors used by management for evaluating the operating performance of the Company. AQN believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s understanding of AQN’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures starting on page 36 of this MD&A.

Adjusted Net Earnings

Adjusted Net Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure used by many investors to compare net earnings from operations without the effects of certain volatile primarily non-cash items that generally have no current economic impact or items such as acquisition expenses or certain litigation expenses that are viewed as not directly related to a company’s operating performance. AQN uses Adjusted Net Earnings to assess its performance without the effects of (as applicable): gains or losses on foreign exchange, foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, acquisition and transition costs, one-time costs of arranging tax equity financing, certain litigation expenses and write down of intangibles and property, plant and equipment, earnings or loss from discontinued operations (excluding sale of assets in the course of normal operations), unrealized mark-to-market revaluation impacts (other than those realized in connection with the sales of development assets), costs related to management succession and executive retirement, costs related to prior period adjustments due to changes in tax law, costs related to condemnation proceedings, financial impacts from the Market Disruption Event on the Company's Senate Wind Facility, changes in value of investments carried at fair value, and other typically non-recurring or unusual items as these are not reflective of the performance of the underlying business of AQN. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of net earnings or loss on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the operating performance of its businesses. Adjusted Net Earnings is not intended to be representative of net earnings or loss determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Earnings to net earnings, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures starting on page 37 of this MD&A.

Adjusted Funds from Operations

Adjusted Funds from Operations is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to compare cash provided by operating activities without the effects of certain volatile items that generally have no current economic impact or items such as acquisition expenses that are viewed as not directly related to a company’s operating performance. AQN uses Adjusted Funds from Operations to assess its performance without the effects of (as applicable): changes in working capital balances, acquisition and transition costs, certain litigation expenses, cash provided by or used in discontinued operations,

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 4

financial impacts from the Market Disruption Event on the Company's Senate Wind Facility, and other typically non-recurring items affecting cash from operations as these are not reflective of the long-term performance of the underlying businesses of AQN. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of funds from operations on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the operating performance of its businesses. Adjusted Funds from Operations is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of Adjusted Funds from Operations to cash provided by operating activities, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures starting on page 38 of this MD&A.

Net Energy Sales

Net Energy Sales is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to identify revenue after commodity costs used to generate revenue where such revenue generally increases or decreases in response to increases or decreases in the cost of the commodity used to produce that revenue. AQN uses Net Energy Sales to assess its revenues without the effects of fluctuating commodity costs as such costs are predominantly passed through either directly or indirectly in the rates that are charged to customers. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of Net Energy Sales on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the revenue generation of the Renewable Energy Group. It is not intended to be representative of revenue as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a reconciliation of Net Energy Sales to revenue, see Renewable Energy Group - 2022 Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Renewable Energy Group Operating Results on page 30 of this MD&A.

Net Utility Sales

Net Utility Sales is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to identify utility revenue after commodity costs, either natural gas or electricity, where these commodity costs are generally included as a pass through in rates to its utility customers. AQN uses Net Utility Sales to assess its utility revenues without the effects of fluctuating commodity costs as such costs are predominantly passed through and paid for by utility customers. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of Net Utility Sales on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the revenue generation of the Regulated Services Group. It is not intended to be representative of revenue as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a reconciliation of Net Utility Sales to revenue, see Regulated Services Group - 2022 Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Regulated Services Group Operating Results on page 20 of this MD&A.

Divisional Operating Profit

Divisional Operating Profit is a non-GAAP financial measure. AQN uses Divisional Operating Profit to assess the operating performance of its business groups without the effects of (as applicable): depreciation and amortization expense, corporate administrative expenses, income tax expense or recoveries, acquisition costs, certain litigation expenses, interest expense, gain or loss on derivative financial instruments, write down of intangibles and property, plant and equipment, gain or loss on foreign exchange, earnings or loss from discontinued operations (excluding the sale of assets in the course of normal operations), non-service pension and post-employment costs, financial impacts from the Market Disruption Event on the Company's Senate Wind Facility, and other typically non-recurring or unusual items. AQN adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and are not factors used by management for evaluating the operating performance of the divisional units. Divisional Operating Profit is calculated inclusive of interest, dividend and equity income earned from indirect investments, and Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (“HLBV”) income, which represents the value of net tax attributes earned in the period from electricity generated by certain of its U.S. wind power and U.S. solar generation facilities. AQN believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s understanding of AQN’s divisional operating performance. Divisional Operating Profit is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of Divisional Operating Profit to revenue for AQN's main business units, see Regulated Services Group - 2022 Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Regulated Services Group Operating Results on page 20 and Renewable Energy Group - 2022 Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Renewable Energy Group Operating Results on page 30 of this MD&A.

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis

Overview and Business Strategy

AQN is incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act. AQN owns and operates a diversified portfolio of regulated and non-regulated generation, distribution, and transmission utility assets which are expected to deliver predictable earnings and cash flows. AQN seeks to maximize total shareholder value through real per share growth in earnings and cash flows to support a growing dividend and share price appreciation. AQN strives to achieve these results while also seeking to maintain a business risk profile consistent with its BBB flat investment grade credit ratings and a strong focus on Environmental, Social and Governance factors.

AQN’s current quarterly dividend to shareholders is $0.1808 per common share or $0.7233 per common share per annum. Based on the Bank of Canada exchange rate on August 10, 2022, the quarterly dividend is equivalent to C$0.2312 per common share or C$0.9248 per common share per annum. AQN believes its annual dividend payout allows for both an immediate return on investment for shareholders and retention of sufficient cash within AQN to fund growth opportunities. Changes in the level of dividends paid by AQN are at the discretion of AQN’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), with dividend levels being reviewed periodically by the Board in the context of AQN’s financial performance and growth prospects.

AQN’s operations are organized across two primary business units consisting of: the Regulated Services Group, which primarily owns and operates a portfolio of regulated assets in the United States, Canada, Bermuda and Chile, and the Renewable Energy Group, which primarily operates a diversified portfolio of owned renewable generation assets.

AQN pursues investment opportunities with an objective of maintaining the current business mix between its Regulated Services Group and Renewable Energy Group and with leverage consistent with its current credit ratings1. The business mix target may from time to time require AQN to grow its Regulated Services Group or implement other strategies in order to pursue investment opportunities within its Renewable Energy Group.

The Company also undertakes business development activities for both business units, working with a global reach to identify, develop, acquire, invest in, or divest of renewable power generating facilities, regulated utilities and other complementary infrastructure projects. See additional discussion in Corporate Development Activities.

Summary Structure of the Business

The following chart depicts, in summary form, AQN’s key businesses. A more detailed description of AQN’s organizational structure can be found in the most recent AIF.

Pending Acquisition of Kentucky Power Company and AEP Kentucky Transmission Company, Inc.

On October 26, 2021, Liberty Utilities Co. (“Liberty Utilities”), an indirect subsidiary of AQN, entered into an agreement with American Electric Power Company, Inc. ("AEP") and AEP Transmission Company, LLC to acquire Kentucky Power Company (“Kentucky Power”) and AEP Kentucky Transmission Company, Inc. (“Kentucky TransCo”) for a total purchase price of approximately $2.846 billion, including the assumption of approximately $1.221 billion in debt (the “Kentucky Power Transaction”).

Kentucky Power is a state rate-regulated electricity generation, distribution and transmission utility serving approximately 228,000 active customer connections in 20 eastern Kentucky counties and operating under a cost of service framework. Kentucky TransCo is an electricity transmission business operating in the Kentucky portion of the transmission infrastructure that is part of the Pennsylvania – New Jersey – Maryland regional transmission organization, PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. Kentucky Power and Kentucky TransCo are both regulated by the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”).

Closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to receipt of certain regulatory and governmental approvals. During the first quarter of 2022, the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 expired and the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States cleared the Kentucky Power Transaction. On May 4, 2022 the Kentucky Public Service Commission (“KPSC”) issued an order approving the Kentucky Power Transaction, subject to certain conditions set forth in the order, including those agreed to by Liberty Utilities in the course of the docket. On May 3, 2022, the KPSC issued an order that required certain changes to the proposed operating and ownership agreements (collectively, the “Mitchell Agreements”) relating to the Mitchell coal generating facility (in which Kentucky Power owns a 50% interest, representing 780 MW) (the “Mitchell Plant”). On July 1, 2022, the Public Service Commission of West Virginia ("WVPSC") issued an order on the Mitchell Agreements that is inconsistent with the KPSC’s order on the Mitchell Agreements. The closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, which include those relating to the approval of the Mitchell Agreements by the KPSC, WVPSC and FERC. Liberty Utilities and AEP are in discussions to reach a resolution regarding the conditions precedent in respect of the Mitchell Agreements (the “Mitchell Agreements Condition”), which if successful, could allow the Kentucky Power Transaction to close in the second half of 2022.

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 9

The Kentucky Power Transaction is expected to add over $2.0 billion of regulated rate base assets. AQN expects the Kentucky Power Transaction to be accretive to Adjusted Net Earnings per common share in the first full year of ownership, generate mid-single digit percentage Adjusted Net Earnings per common share accretion thereafter, and support growth in AQN’s Adjusted Net Earnings per common share over the long term (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures).

Completion of Sandhill Renewable Natural Gas Acquisition

On August 5, 2022, the Renewable Energy Group completed its acquisition of Sandhill Advanced Biofuels, LLC ("Sandhill"). Sandhill is a developer of renewable natural gas ("RNG") anaerobic digestion projects located on dairy farms, with a portfolio of four projects in the state of Wisconsin. Two of the projects recently achieved full commercial operations ("COD"), while the other two projects are in late-stage development. Once fully constructed, the portfolio is expected to produce RNG at a rate of approximately 500 million British thermal units (“MMBTUs”) per day. The projects represent the Company’s first investment in the non-regulated RNG space.

Regulatory Proceedings related to the Midwest Extreme Weather Event and the Retirement of Asbury

The Midwest Extreme Weather Event resulted in an extraordinary increase in costs incurred by Empire Electric for the purchase of fuel and power on behalf of its customers.

When Empire Electric filed its most recent Missouri rate case (the "Empire Rate Case") in May 2021, a request to recover the costs related to the Midwest Extreme Weather Event was included. In July 2021, Missouri House Bill 734 was signed into law, creating an option for utilities to finance the recovery of extraordinary weather event costs through securitization (the "Securitization Statute"). When it filed its surrebuttal testimony in January 2022, Empire Electric removed all costs related to the Midwest Extreme Weather Event from its rate request. Pursuant to the Securitization Statute, Empire Electric has sought authorization for the issuance of approximately $222 million in securitized utility tariff bonds associated with the Midwest Extreme Weather Event.

In addition, as part of its 2017 and 2019 Integrated Resource Plans (“IRPs”), Empire analyzed the effects of retiring Asbury, a coal-fired generation unit that was constructed in 1970 and determined that doing so would generate significant savings to customers. Asbury was retired on March 1, 2020. On July 23, 2020, the MPSC issued an Administrative Accounting Order ("AAO") that directed Empire Electric to establish regulatory asset and liability accounts, beginning January 1, 2020, to reflect the impact of the closure of Asbury on operating and capital expenses in Missouri.

Empire initially sought to recover its Asbury related revenues and expenses, along with the balance of the AAO, in the Empire Rate Case. Following the passage of the Securitization Statute, all Asbury related balances were removed from the Empire Rate Case, and on March 21, 2022, Empire filed a petition to securitize the Asbury related balances pursuant to the Securitization Statute. Empire Electric has sought authority to issue approximately $141 million, in securitized utility tariff bonds for its Asbury costs, which include approximately $21 million in Asset Retirement Obligations, which are estimates of costs that Empire Electric will recover from the Asbury retirement but which have not yet been incurred.

On April 27, 2022, the MPSC issued an order consolidating, for purposes of hearing, the cases regarding the quantum financeable through securitization for Asbury and the Midwest Extreme Weather Event, which hearing was held the week of June 13, 2022. The MPSC must issue an order on the Midwest Extreme Weather Event securitization request no later than August 22, 2022. It is expected that the Asbury securitization request will be addressed in that same order. The order could result in a lower quantum of costs being financeable through securitization than sought by the Company.

Kentucky Power Transaction

Closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to receipt of certain regulatory and governmental approvals. During the first quarter of 2022, the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 expired and the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States cleared the Kentucky Power Transaction. On May 4, 2022 the KPSC issued an order approving the Kentucky Power Transaction, subject to certain conditions set forth in the order, including those agreed to by Liberty Utilities in the course of the docket. On May 3, 2022, the KPSC issued an order that required certain changes to the Mitchell Agreements relating to the Mitchell Plant. On July 1, 2022, the WVPSC issued an order on the Mitchell Agreements that is inconsistent with the KPSC’s order on the Mitchell Agreements. The closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, which include those relating to the approval of the Mitchell Agreements by the KPSC, WVPSC and FERC. Liberty Utilities and AEP are in discussions to reach a resolution regarding the conditions precedent in respect of the Mitchell Agreements, which if successful, could allow the Kentucky Power Transaction to close in the second half of 2022.

1	Many of the Renewable Energy Group’s PPAs include annual rate increases. However, a change to the weighted average production levels resulting from higher average production from facilities that earn lower energy rates can result in a lower weighted average energy rate earned by the division as compared to the same period in the prior year. Includes the impacts from the Market Disruption Event on the Senate Wind Facility.
2	Cost of Sales - Energy consists of energy purchases in the Maritime Region to manage the energy sales from the Tinker Hydro Facility which is sold to retail and industrial customers under multi-year contracts.

The relevant sections of the table are derived from and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statement of operations and Note 18 in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, “Segmented information”. This supplementary disclosure is intended to more fully explain disclosures related to Net Energy Sales and provides additional information related to the operating performance of AQN. Investors are cautioned that Net Energy Sales should not be construed as an alternative to revenue.
6	Qualifying renewable energy projects receive RECs for the generation and delivery of renewable energy to the power grid. The RECs represent proof that 1 MW-hr of electricity was generated from an eligible energy source.
7	Includes dividends received from Atlantica and related parties (see Note 6 and 13 in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements) as well as the equity investment in the Texas Coastal Wind Facilities (Stella, Cranell, East Raymond and West Raymond).
8	HLBV income represents the value of net tax attributes earned by the Renewable Energy Group in the period primarily from electricity generated by certain of its U.S. wind and U.S. solar generation facilities. Production tax credits ("PTCs") are earned as wind energy is generated based on a dollar per kW-hr rate prescribed in applicable federal and state statutes. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Renewable Energy Group's eligible facilities generated 2,857.0 GW-hrs representing approximately $71.4 million in PTCs earned as compared to 1,311.7 GW-hrs representing $32.8 million in PTCs earned during the same period in 2021. The majority of the PTCs have been allocated to tax equity investors to monetize the value to AQN of the PTCs and other tax attributes which are the primary drivers of HLBV income offset by the return earned by the investor. Some PTCs have been utilized directly by the Company to lower its overall effective tax rate.

2022 Second Quarter Operating Results

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Renewable Energy Group’s facilities generated operating revenue of $97.0 million (i.e., non-regulated energy sales) as compared to $77.9 million in the comparable period in the prior year.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Renewable Energy Group's facilities generated $117.9 million of Divisional Operating Profit (excluding corporate administration expenses) as compared to $97.0 million during the same period in 2021, which represents an increase of $20.9 million or 21.5%. (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures).

Highlights of the changes are summarized in the following table:

(all dollar amounts in $ millions)	Three months ended June 30
Prior Period Divisional Operating Profit1	$	97.0
Existing Facilities and Investments
Hydro: Increase is primarily due to higher overall production, partially offset by higher operating expenses in the Maritime Region	1.0
Wind Canada: Increase is primarily due to higher production across all Canadian wind facilities.	2.2
Wind U.S.: Increase is primarily due to higher production, favourable REC revenue and favourable pricing.	11.4

2022 Second Quarter Corporate and Other Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, administrative expenses totaled $20.1 million as compared to $17.1 million in the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher staffing expenses as a result of increased headcount and timing of other costs.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense totaled $64.6 million as compared to $58.2 million in the same period in 2021 due to the funding of capital deployed in 2022 primarily related to the acquisition of Liberty NY Water and development of renewable energy projects.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, depreciation expense totaled $112.5 million as compared to $98.2 million in the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher overall property, plant and equipment, and the acquisition of Liberty NY Water.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, change in investments carried at fair value totaled a loss of $143.5 million as compared to a gain of $27.3 million in the same period in 2021. The Company records certain of its investments, including Atlantica, using the fair value method and accordingly any change in the fair value of the investment is recorded in the Statement of Operations (see Note 6 in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements).

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, pension and post-employment non-service costs totaled $2.3 million as compared to $3.9 million in the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower amortization of actuarial losses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, other net losses were $8.7 million as compared to $1.8 million in the same period in 2021. The net losses in both the second quarter of 2022 and 2021 respectively, were primarily due to acquisition and transition-related costs. See Note 16 in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the loss on derivative financial instruments totaled $6.1 million as compared to a loss of $1.4 million in the same period in 2021. AQN uses derivative instruments to manage exposure to changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, and interest rates. The loss in the second quarter of 2022 was primarily related to mark-to-markets on interest rate derivatives. The loss in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily related to mark-to-markets on energy derivatives.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, an income tax recovery of $22.8 million was recorded as compared to an income tax recovery of $4.2 million during the same period in 2021. The increase in income tax recovery was primarily due to the tax impact associated with the change in fair value of the investment in Atlantica partially offset by lower tax credits accrued. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company accrued $12.0 million of investment tax credits ("ITCs") and PTCs associated with renewable energy projects that have either been placed in service or are expected to be placed in service by the end of 2022 as compared to $14.9 million recorded in the same period in 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, pension and post-employment non-service costs totaled $4.8 million as compared to $7.5 million in the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower amortization of actuarial losses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, other net losses were $13.4 million as compared to $10.2 million in the same period in 2021. The net losses in the first half of 2022 were primarily due to acquisition and transition-related costs. The net losses in the first half of 2021 were primarily due to an adjustment to a regulatory liability pertaining to the true-up of prior period tracking accounts, and certain asset write-downs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the loss on derivative financial instruments totaled $5.9 million as compared to a gain of $0.3 million in the same period in 2021. AQN uses derivative instruments to manage exposure to changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, and interest rates.

The gain in the first half of 2021 was primarily related to mark-to-markets on energy derivatives.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, an income tax recovery of $13.4 million was recorded as compared to an income tax recovery of $25.8 million during the same period in 2021. The decrease in income tax recovery was primarily due to the tax benefits associated with the impact of the Midwest Extreme Weather Event in 2021, state deferred tax adjustments related to the acquisition of Liberty NY Water, and lower tax credits accrued. This was partially offset by the tax impact associated with the change in fair value of the investment in Atlantica. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company accrued $22.0 million of ITCs and PTCs associated with renewable energy projects that have either been placed in service or are expected to be placed in service by the end of 2022 as compared to $26.5 million recorded in the same period in 2021.

2022 Capital Investments

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Caution ConcerningForward-Looking Statements and Forward-Looking Information section of this MD&A.

Over the course of the 2022 financial year, the Company expects to spend between approximately $4.35 billion and $4.68 billion on capital investment opportunities. Actual expenditures in 2022 may vary due to, among other things, the impacts of COVID-19 and related response measures, the timing of various project investments and acquisitions, the availability of financing on acceptable terms, and realized foreign exchange rates.

Ranges of expected capital investment in the 2022 financial year are as follows:

(all dollar amounts in $ millions)
Regulated Services Group:
Rate Base Maintenance	$	400.0	-	$	440.0
Rate Base Growth	450.0		-	540.0
Rate Base Acquisitions	3,400.0		-	3,550.0
Total Regulated Services Group:	$	4,250.0	-	$	4,530.0
Renewable Energy Group:
Maintenance	$	35.0	-	$	50.0
Investment in Capital Projects	65.0		-	100.0
Total Renewable Energy Group:	$	100.0	-	$	150.0
Total 2022 Capital Investments	$	4,350.0	-	$	4,680.0

The Regulated Services Group expects to spend between $4,250.0 million and $4,530.0 million over the course of 2022 primarily attributable to rate base acquisitions between $3,400.0 million and $3,550.0 million. In January 2022, the Regulated Services Group closed the acquisition of Liberty NY Water for a purchase price of approximately $609.0 million excluding transaction costs. Furthermore, in October 2021, an agreement was reached to acquire Kentucky Power and Kentucky TransCo for a total purchase price of approximately $2,846.0 million excluding transaction costs. The Kentucky Power Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2022. The remaining Regulated Services Group spend is expected to contribute to continued efforts to expand operations, improve the reliability of the utility systems and broaden the technologies used to better serve its service areas. Project spending includes capital for structural improvements, specifically in relation to refurbishing substations, replacing poles and wires, drilling and equipping aquifers, main replacements, and reservoir pumping stations.

The Renewable Energy Group expects to spend between $100.0 million and $150.0 million over the course of 2022 to develop or further invest in development and construction (as applicable) of the Renewable Energy Group's wind and solar projects. Furthermore, the Renewable Energy Group plans to spend between $35.0 million and $50.0 million on various operational solar, thermal, and wind assets to maintain safety, regulatory, and operational efficiencies.

The Company expects to fund its 2022 capital plan through a combination of retained cash, tax equity funding, senior notes, subordinated notes, bank revolving and term credit facilities, and common equity or equity linked instruments.

Credit Ratings

AQN has a long term consolidated corporate credit rating of BBB from S&P, a BBB rating from DBRS and a BBB issuer rating from Fitch. Liberty Utilities has a corporate credit rating of BBB from S&P, a BBB issuer rating from Fitch and a Baa2 issuer rating from Moody's. Debt issued by Liberty Utilities Finance GP1 (“Liberty GP”) has a rating of BBB (high) from DBRS, BBB+ from Fitch, BBB from S&P and Baa2 from Moody's. Empire has an issuer rating of BBB from S&P and a Baa1 rating from Moody's Investors Service, Inc. Liberty Utilities (Canada) LP, the parent company for the Canadian regulated utilities under the Regulated Services Group, has an issuer rating of BBB from DBRS. APCo has a BBB issuer rating from S&P, a BBB issuer rating from DBRS and a BBB issuer rating from Fitch.

On October 28, 2021, following the announcement of the Kentucky Power Transaction, each of DBRS, Fitch and S&P made announcements regarding the credit ratings of the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Fitch affirmed (i) the existing issuer ratings of both the Corporation and Liberty Utilities (‘BBB’ Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (“IDR”) and ‘F2’ Short-Term IDR, respectively), and (ii) all the security ratings of the Corporation, Liberty Utilities and Liberty GP. Fitch also noted that the rating outlooks for the Corporation and Liberty Utilities are stable and that the credit ratings of APCo are unaffected by the Kentucky Power Transaction. Fitch noted that it views the Kentucky Power Transaction to be neutral to the credit quality of the Corporation and Liberty Utilities, given the underlying credit quality of Kentucky Power, and what Fitch expects to be a relatively credit-supportive financing plan for the Kentucky Power Transaction.

DBRS placed the Corporation’s ‘BBB’ Issuer Rating and ‘Pfd-3’ Preferred Shares ratings ‘Under Review with Developing Implications’. DBRS indicated that it views the Kentucky Power Transaction as a positive development from a business risk perspective due to the expected increase in the Corporation’s regulated assets and rate base and expected improvements in jurisdictional diversification and capital expenditure planning. Notwithstanding these potentially positive impacts, the ‘Under Review with Developing Implications’ rating action reflects DBRS’s view that the Corporation’s financing plan for the Kentucky Power Transaction, which may include the issuance of hybrid debt, could increase the Corporation’s nonconsolidated leverage. DBRS noted that if the Corporation’s nonconsolidated debt-to-capital ratio, as calculated by DBRS, rises significantly above 20% following the issuance of any hybrid debt, a negative rating action could be taken.

S&P revised its outlook on the Corporation, Liberty Utilities, APCo, Liberty GP and Empire from stable to negative, noting a lack of certainty regarding the Corporation’s financing plan for the Kentucky Power Transaction, beyond the equity offering for gross proceeds of approximately C$800 million undertaken to partially finance the Kentucky Power Transaction, which could expose the Corporation to execution risks related to the procurement of credit supportive funding. S&P also noted that the negative outlook incorporates the possibility of any material adverse regulatory requirements which may be necessary to close the Kentucky Power Transaction. S&P also affirmed its ‘BBB’ issuer credit rating for each of the Corporation, Liberty Utilities, APCo, Liberty GP and Empire. Finally, S&P placed its rating on Liberty GP’s senior unsecured debt on CreditWatch with negative implications to reflect its view of the potential for such debt to be structurally subordinated following the closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction.

During the first half of 2022, S&P, Fitch, Moody's and DBRS affirmed their existing ratings. In addition, S&P removed the "CreditWatch with negative implications" from Liberty GP's senior unsecured debt.

ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT

The Corporation is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, certain of which are described below. A risk is the possibility that an event might happen in the future that could have a negative effect on the financial condition, financial performance or business of the Corporation. The actual effect of any event on the Corporation’s business could be materially different from what is anticipated or described below. The description of risks below does not include all possible risks.

Led by the Chief Compliance and Risk Officer, the Corporation has an established enterprise risk management ("ERM") framework. The Corporation’s ERM framework follows the guidance of ISO 31000 and the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") Enterprise Risk Management - Integrated Framework. The Corporation’s ERM Policy details the Corporation’s risk management processes and risk governance structure.

As part of the risk management process, risk registers have been developed across the organization through ongoing risk identification and risk assessment exercises facilitated by the Corporation’s internal ERM team. Key risks and associated mitigation strategies are reviewed by the executive-level Enterprise Risk Management Council and are presented to the Risk Committee of the Board periodically.

Identified risks are evaluated using a standardized risk scoring matrix to assess impact and likelihood. Financial, safety, security, reputational, reliability, and planned execution implications are among those considered when determining the impact of a potential risk. However, there can be no assurance that the Corporation's risk management activities will be successful in identifying, assessing, or mitigating the risks to which the Corporation is subject.

The risks discussed below are not intended as a complete list of all risks that AQN, its subsidiaries and affiliates are encountering or may encounter.

•operating, supply chain and project development and construction delays, disruptions and cost overruns;

•delayed collection of accounts receivable and increased levels of bad debt expense;

•delayed placed-in-service dates for the Company's renewable energy projects, which may give rise to, among other things, lower than anticipated revenue, delay-related liabilities to contractual counterparties and increased amounts of interest payable to construction lenders;

•reduced availability of funding under construction loans and tax equity financing, which may require the Company to initially increase its funding and, if possible, directly realize the tax benefits;

•reduced ability of the Company and its employees to effectively respond to, or mitigate the effects of, another force majeure or other significant event;

•increased operating costs for emergency supplies, personal protective equipment, cleaning services, enabling technology and other specific needs in response to COVID-19, some of which may not be recovered through future rates;

•increased market volatility and lower pension plan returns which could adversely impact the valuation of pension plan assets and future funding requirements for the Company's pension plans;

•deterioration in financial metrics and other factors that impact the Company’s credit ratings;

•inability to meet the requirements of the covenants in existing credit facilities;

•inability to access credit and capital markets on acceptable terms or at all, including to refinance maturing indebtedness;

•IT and operational technology system interruptions, loss of critical data and increased cybersecurity and privacy breaches due to “work from home” arrangements implemented by the Company;

•business disruptions and costs as "work from home" arrangements are reduced and a greater number of employees return to the office;

•losses to the Company caused by fluctuations and volatility in the trading price of Atlantica’s ordinary shares or reduction of the dividend paid to holders of Atlantica’s ordinary shares; and

•fluctuations and volatility in the trading price of the Company’s common shares and other securities, which could result in losses for the Company’s security holders.

The COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening the other risks described herein, under the heading Enterprise Risk Management in the Company’s Annual MD&A and under the heading Enterprise Risk Factors in the Company's most recent AIF. The adverse impacts of COVID-19 on the Company can be expected to increase the longer the pandemic and any related response measures persist.

Treasury Risk Management

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk from certain outstanding variable interest indebtedness and any new credit facilities and debt issuances. Fluctuations in interest rates may also impact the costs to obtain other forms of capital.

In addition, for the Regulated Services Group, costs resulting from interest rate increases may not be recoverable in whole or in part, and “regulatory lag” may cause a time delay in the payment to the Regulated Services Group of any such costs

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 47

that are recoverable. Rising interest rates may also negatively impact the economics of development projects and energy facilities, especially where project financing is being renewed or arranged.

As a result, fluctuations in interest rates could materially increase the Corporation’s financing costs, limit the Corporation’s options for financing, and adversely affect its results of operations, cash flows, key credit metrics, borrowing capacity and ability to implement its business strategy.

As at June 30, 2022, approximately 84% of debt outstanding in AQN and its subsidiaries was subject to a fixed rate of interest and as such is not subject to significant interest rate risk in the short to medium term time horizon.

Borrowings subject to variable interest rates can vary significantly from month to month, quarter to quarter and year to year. AQN does not actively manage interest rate risk on its variable interest rate borrowings due to the primarily short term and revolving nature of the amounts drawn.

Based on amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2022, the impact to interest expense from changes in interest rates are as follows:

•the Corporate Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $124.3 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $1.2 million annually;

•the Long Term Regulated Services Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had no amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would not impact interest expense;

•the Short Term Regulated Services Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had no amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would not impact interest expense;

•the Regulated Services Delayed Draw Term Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $610.4 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $6.1 million annually;

•the Bermuda Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $74.3 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $0.7 million annually;

•the Bermuda Working Capital Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $10.0 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $0.1 million annually;

•the Regulated Services Group's commercial paper program is subject to a variable interest rate and had $165.0 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $1.7 million annually;

•the Renewable Energy Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $161.3 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $1.6 million annually; and

•term facilities at BELCO and ESSAL that are subject to variable interest rates had $82.0 million outstanding as at June 30, 2022. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $0.8 million annually.

Tax Risk and Uncertainty

The Corporation is subject to income and other taxes primarily in the United States and Canada; however, it is also subject to income and other taxes in international jurisdictions, such as Chile and Bermuda. Changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof in the jurisdictions in which the Corporation does business could adversely affect the Company's results from operations, returns to shareholders, and cash flows. One or more taxing jurisdictions could seek to impose incremental or new taxes on the Company pursuant to one of the following or otherwise:

•Tax legislative proposals have been drafted in the U.S. that include a minimum tax, and an extension and expansion of clean energy tax credits. It is unknown when legislation incorporating these proposals could be enacted.

•On April 19, 2021, the Canadian federal government delivered its 2021 budget which contained proposed measures related to limitations on interest deductibility and changes in relation to international taxation. Draft legislative proposals pertaining to interest deductibility and other matters were released for public comment on

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 48

February 4, 2022 and are expected to be effective beginning in 2023. The proposed rules and their application are complex and could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation's effective tax rate and financial results in future years if enacted as drafted.

•As a consequence of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (“OECD”) project on “Base Erosion and Profit Shifting”, there could be a focus by taxing authorities to pursue common international principles for the entitlement to taxation of global corporate profits and minimum global tax rates. In December 2021, the OECD released model legislation outlining how a global minimum tax would apply. Each local jurisdiction will need to draft their own legislation to enact these minimum tax rules with application expected no earlier than January 1, 2023.

The Corporation cannot provide assurance that the Canada Revenue Agency, the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxation authority will agree with the tax positions taken by the Corporation, including with respect to claimed expenses and the cost amount of the Corporation’s depreciable properties. A successful challenge by an applicable taxation authority regarding such tax positions could adversely affect the results of operations and financial position of the Corporation.

Development by the Corporation of renewable power generation facilities in the United States depends in part on federal tax credits and other tax incentives. These credits are currently subject to a multi-year step-down. While recently enacted U.S. tax reform legislation did extend some of the credits, at reduced levels, for solar facilities that begin construction in 2021, 2022 and 2023 and for wind facilities that began construction in 2021, there can be no assurance that there will be further extensions in the future or that the reduced credits will be sufficient to support continued development and construction of renewable power facilities in the United States. Moreover, if the Corporation is unable to complete construction on current or planned projects on anticipated schedules, the reduced incentives may be insufficient to support continued development or may result in substantially reduced financial benefits from facilities or long-term investment in facilities that the Corporation is committed to complete. In addition, the Corporation has entered into certain tax equity financing transactions with financial partners for certain of its renewable power facilities in the United States, under which allocations of future cash flows to the Corporation from the applicable facility could be adversely affected in the event that there are changes in U.S. tax laws that apply to facilities previously placed in service.

OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Inflation Risk

AQN's profitability could be impacted by inflation increases above long-term averages. The Regulated Services Group’s facilities are subject to rate setting by its regulatory agencies. The time between the incurrence of costs and the granting of the rates to recover those costs by regulatory agencies is known as regulatory lag. As a result of regulatory lag, inflationary effects and timing delays may impact the ability to recover expenses and/or capital costs, and profitability could be impacted. In the event of significant inflation, the impact of regulatory lag on the Company would be increased. In order to mitigate this exposure, the Regulated Services Group seeks to obtain approval for regulatory constructs in the states in which it operates to allow for timely recovery of operating expenses and capital costs.

The Renewable Energy Group's assets are subject to long term PPAs, some of which are not indexed to inflation and could experience declines in profitability if operating costs increase at a rate greater than the offtake price.

Development and construction projects could experience a decrease in expected returns as a result of increased costs. To mitigate the risk of inflation the Company attempts to enter into fixed price constructions agreements and fixed price offtake agreements.

Tariff Risk

Changes in tariffs or duties, such as antidumping and countervailing duty rates that could be put in place as a result of the U.S. Department of Commerce's investigation into an antidumping and countervailing duties circumvention claim on solar cells and panels supplied from Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia, may adversely affect the capital expenditures required to develop or construct the Corporation’s projects, as well as the timing for completion, or viability, of such projects. In the U.S., tariffs have been imposed in recent years to imports of solar panels, aluminum and steel, among other goods and raw materials. These occurrences may have adverse impacts to the Corporation, as the buyer of goods, which could adversely affect the Corporation’s expected returns, results of operations and cash flows.

Risks Relating to the Kentucky Power Transaction

The closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to the normal commercial risks that such acquisition will not close on the terms negotiated or at all. The Kentucky Power Transaction remains subject to closing conditions, including certain regulatory and governmental approvals. The failure to satisfy or waive the conditions may result in the termination of the acquisition agreement. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will complete the Kentucky Power Transaction in the timeframe or on the basis described herein, if at all. As the Kentucky Power Transaction is subject to

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 49

various regulatory approvals, it is consequently subject to the risks that such approvals may not be timely obtained or may impose unfavourable conditions that could impair the ability to complete the acquisition or impose adverse conditions on the Company in order to complete the acquisition. The presence of intervenors in the regulatory approval process has the effect of increasing these risks.

If the Kentucky Power Transaction is not completed, the Company could be subject to a number of risks that may adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and cash flows, including (i) the requirement to pay costs relating to the Kentucky Power Transaction, including costs relating to the financing thereof and obtaining regulatory approval, (ii) the requirement to find effective new uses for the net proceeds of the Company’s securities offerings undertaken to finance the Kentucky Power Transaction, and (iii) time and resources committed by the Company’s management to matters relating to the Kentucky Power Transaction that could otherwise have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities. In addition, if the acquisition agreement for the Kentucky Power Transaction is terminated in certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay a termination fee of $65 million.

Business combinations such as the Kentucky Power Transaction involve risks that could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business plan, including the failure to realize the results that the Company expects. Transition and integration activities associated with this business combination may not go as planned, creating the potential for increased costs, service disruption, noncompliance, reputational harm and other negative outcomes. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in increasing the historical returns earned by either of Kentucky Power or Kentucky Transco, that the load declines experienced by Kentucky Power over recent years will not continue to be a prevailing trend, or that the Company will be able to fully realize some or all of the expected benefits of the Kentucky Power Transaction or succeed in implementing its strategic objectives relating to the acquired entities, including the transfer of operational control of the Mitchell Plant from Kentucky Power to the Wheeling Power Company and the transition of Kentucky Power’s generating mix to greener sources (i.e. “greening the fleet” initiatives). The ability to realize these anticipated benefits and implement these strategic objectives will depend in part on successfully retaining staff, hiring additional staff to replace certain of the vendors’ centralized operations, obtaining favourable regulatory outcomes, realizing growth opportunities, no unanticipated economic changes in the areas where the acquired entities operate, and potential synergies through the coordination of activities and operations with the Company’s existing business. There is a risk that some or all of the expected benefits and strategic objectives will fail to materialize, or may not occur within the time periods anticipated by the Company. A failure to realize the anticipated benefits of or implement strategic objectives relating to the Kentucky Power Transaction on an efficient and effective basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, reputation and cash flows.

A change in the capital structure of the Company could cause credit rating agencies which rate the Company’s outstanding debt obligations to re-evaluate and potentially downgrade the Company’s current credit ratings, which could increase the Company’s borrowing costs and adversely impact the market price of the outstanding securities of the Company.

The Kentucky Power Transaction could also result in a downgrade of the credit rating of Kentucky Power or its outstanding bonds, and could require Kentucky Power to offer to prepay $525 million in principal amount of its outstanding bonds if the credit ratings thereof fall below investment grade (or in the event such bonds are placed on “credit watch” or assigned a “negative outlook” if they are rated BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody’s at such time).

There may be liabilities that the Company failed to discover or was unable to quantify in the Company’s due diligence, and the Company may not have recourse for some or all of these potential liabilities. While the Company has accounted for these potential liabilities for the purposes of making its decision to enter into the acquisition agreement, there can be no assurance that any such liability will not exceed the Company’s estimates. In connection with the Kentucky Power Transaction, the Company has obtained a representation and warranty insurance policy, with coverage up to $255 million, subject to an initial retention of $21 million. Nevertheless, this insurance policy is subject to certain exclusions and limitations and there may be circumstances for which the insurer attempts to limit such coverage or refuses to indemnify the Company or where the coverage provided under the insurance policy may otherwise be insufficient or inapplicable.

Kentucky Power and Kentucky Transco is a party to agreements that contain change of control and/or termination for convenience provisions which may be triggered following completion of the Kentucky Power Transaction. The operation of these change of control or termination provisions, if triggered, could result in unanticipated expenses and/or cash payments following the consummation of the Kentucky Power Transaction or adversely affect the acquired entities’ results of operations and financial condition. Unless these change of control provisions are waived, or the termination provisions are not exercised, by the other party, the operation of any of these provisions could adversely affect the results of operations and financial condition of the Company and the acquired entities.

All of the electricity generated by Kentucky Power is produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. As a result, the acquisition of Kentucky Power could result in reputational harm to the Company and adversely affect perceptions regarding the Company’s commitment to environmental and sustainability matters, as well as the Company’s ability to accomplish its environmental and sustainability objectives. The operation of fossil-fueled generation plants, including resulting emissions of nitrogen and sulfur oxides, mercury and particulates and the discharge and disposal of solid waste (including coal-

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis 50

combustion residuals (“CCRs”)), is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental statutes, rules and regulations relating to air quality, water quality, waste management, natural resources and health and safety. Compliance with these requirements requires Kentucky Power to incur significant costs, including capital expenditures, for environmental monitoring, installation of pollution control equipment, emission fees, disposal activities, decommissioning, and permitting obligations at its facilities. If these compliance costs become uneconomical, Kentucky Power may ultimately be required to retire generating capacity prior to the end of its estimated life. The costs of complying with these legal requirements could also adversely affect Kentucky Power’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and those of the Company following the closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction. In addition, the impacts could become even more significant if existing requirements governing air emissions management and disposal, CCR waste and/or waste matter discharge become more restrictive in the future, more extensive operating and/or permitting requirements are imposed or additional substances associated with power generation are subjected to increased regulation. Although Kentucky Power typically recovers expenditures for pollution control technologies, replacement generation, undepreciated plant balances and associated operating costs from customers, there can be no assurance that Kentucky Power will be able to obtain a rate order to fully recover the remaining costs associated with such plants in the future. The failure to recover these costs could reduce Kentucky Power’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and those of the Company following the closing of the Kentucky Power Transaction.

In addition, future changes to environmental laws, including with respect to the regulation of CO2 emissions, could cause Kentucky Power to incur materially higher costs than it has incurred to date.

Kentucky Power’s service territory has experienced significant flooding as a result of severe weather experienced in late July 2022, which is expected to result in additional operating and capital expenditures being incurred by Kentucky Power. While recovery of such expenditures is expected to be sought in future regulatory filings by Kentucky Power, the recovery of all or any of such expenditures is uncertain. In addition, significant regulatory lag may occur in connection with any such recovery. As a result, the Company’s financial condition, cash flows and results of operations could be adversely impacted.

Litigation Risks and Other Contingencies

AQN and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in various litigation, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Any accruals for contingencies related to these items are recorded in the financial statements at the time it is concluded that a material financial loss is likely and the related liability is estimable. Anticipated recoveries under existing insurance policies are recorded when reasonably assured of recovery.

Mountain View Fire

On November 17, 2020, a wildfire now known as the Mountain View Fire occurred in the territory of Liberty Utilities (CalPeco Electric) LLC ("Liberty CalPeco"). The cause of the fire remains under investigation, and CAL FIRE has not yet released its final report. There are currently 10 active lawsuits that name the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries as defendants in connection with the Mountain View fire. Five of these lawsuits are brought by groups of individual plaintiffs alleging causes of action including negligence, inverse condemnation, nuisance, trespass, and violations of Cal. Pub. Util. Code 2106 and Cal. Health and Safety Code 13007. In the sixth active lawsuit, County of Mono, Antelope Valley Fire Protection District, Toiyabe Indian Health Project, and Bridgeport Indian Colony allege similar causes of action and seek damages for fire suppression costs, law enforcement costs, property and infrastructure damage, and other costs. In three other lawsuits, insurance companies allege inverse condemnation and negligence and seek recovery of amounts paid and to be paid to their insureds. The tenth lawsuit alleges the wrongful death of an individual, along with causes of action similar to those alleged in the cases filed by groups of individual plaintiffs. The likelihood of success in these lawsuits cannot be reasonably predicted. Liberty CalPeco intends to vigorously defend them. The Company has wildfire liability insurance that is expected to apply up to applicable policy limits.

The quarterly results are impacted by various factors including seasonal fluctuations and acquisitions of facilities as noted in this MD&A.

Quarterly revenues have fluctuated between $376.1 million and $735.7 million over the prior two year period. A number of factors impact quarterly results including acquisitions, seasonal fluctuations, and winter and summer rates built into the PPAs. In addition, a factor impacting revenues year over year is the fluctuation in the strength of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar which can result in significant changes in reported revenue from Canadian operations.

Quarterly net earnings attributable to shareholders have fluctuated between a loss of $33.4 million and earnings of $504.2 million over the prior two year period. Earnings have been significantly impacted by non-cash factors such as deferred tax recovery and expense, impairment of intangibles, property, plant and equipment and mark-to-market gains and losses on financial instruments.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

AQN's management carried out an evaluation as of June 30, 2022, under the supervision of and with the participation of AQN’s Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of AQN’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15 (e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2022, AQN’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by AQN in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Management, including the CEO and the CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting. Management, as at the end of the period covered by this interim filing, designed internal controls over financial reporting to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The control framework management used to design the Company's internal control over financial reporting is that established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

The Company acquired Liberty NY Water during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The financial information for this acquisition is included in this MD&A and in Note 3 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Liberty NY Water contributed negative net earnings and represented approximately 3.7% of the Company's consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and approximately 1.9% and 4.1% of the Company's current and total consolidated assets, and 3.9% and 2.9% of the Company's current and total consolidated liabilities, respectively, as at June 30, 2022. National Instrument 52-109 and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission provide an exemption whereby companies undergoing acquisitions can exclude the acquired business in the year of acquisition from the scope of testing and assessment of design and operational effectiveness of controls over financial reporting. Due to the complexity associated with assessing internal controls during integration efforts, the Company plans to utilize the scope exemption as it relates to this acquisition in its management report on internal controls over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, there has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. AQN continues to apply its internal control structure over the operations of the acquired business discussed above.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Due to its inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements based on error or fraud. Further, the effectiveness of internal control is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

AQN prepared its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related amounts of revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant areas requiring the use of management judgment relate to the scope of consolidated entities, useful lives and recoverability of depreciable assets, the measurement of deferred taxes and the recoverability of deferred tax assets, rate-regulation, unbilled revenue, pension and post-employment benefits, fair value of derivatives and fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

AQN’s significant accounting policies and new accounting standards are discussed in Notes 1 and 2 in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, respectively.
