Utilities are deploying accelerating capital into grid infrastructure to bridge the gap between existing capacity and rising future demand.

This quarter, 10 of the 32 holdings announced dividend increases with an average increase of 15.3%. An enhanced earnings profile should strengthen utilities' ability to provide high and rising income to investors. The portfolio focuses on generating total returns with a high and rising stream of income. NextEra Energy signed a 25-year power purchase agreement with Google to restart the Duane Arnold nuclear plant. Constellation Energy benefited from a FERC ruling on co-location that was viewed as positive for Independent Power Producer development and from PJM Interconnection capacity auction pricing. Tightening power markets for independent power producers lifted utility growth profiles. Constellation Energy benefited from FERC ruling on co-location viewed as positive for IPP development. The company also benefited from PJM Interconnection capacity auction where pricing came in at the top of the collar range. | View | |
