Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.

On October 14, 2003, NRG Energy, Inc. (“NRG Energy” or the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries filed a second amended joint plan of reorganization (the “NRG Plan”) with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On October 14, 2003, the Company commenced solicitation of votes from persons who are entitled to vote on the NRG Plan. The voting record date for determining which creditors are allowed to vote on the NRG Plan is September 29, 2003, and the deadline for returning completed ballots was November 12, 2003. On November 18, 2003, NRG Energy announced that its voting creditors approved the NRG Plan and filed the final voting report with the Bankruptcy Court. The hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to consider confirmation of the NRG Plan is scheduled to begin on November 21, 2003. The Company will emerge from Chapter 11 if and when the NRG Plan receives the requisite stakeholder approval and is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.

On September 17, 2003, NRG Northeast Generating LLC (“NEG”) and NRG South Central Generating LLC (SCG) and certain of their subsidiaries and affiliates filed a plan of reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court (the “NEG SCG Plan”). The debtors under the NEG SCG Plan are not soliciting votes for approval of the NEG SCG Plan because the debtors believe that none of the holders of claims or equity interests are impaired under the NEG SCG Plan. The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled a hearing on the confirmation of the NEG SCG Plan on November 21, 24 and 25, 2003.

Copies of the NRG Plan and the NEG SCG Plan are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively. A copy of the NRG Energy press release dated November 18, 2003 is attached herein as Exhibit 99.3.

     The NRG Plan and the NEG SCG Plans, together with any supplements thereto, certain exhibits and related court filings, are available at http://www.kccllc.net/nrg/.

The foregoing review of factors that could cause NRG’s actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K should not be construed as exhaustive.
