Our country’s energy grid is facing a critical moment. The unprecedented energy demand to power new technologies, meet expected U.S.-based manufacturing growth and support the electrification of our daily lives requires a fundamental shift in how our industry generates and delivers energy, while ensuring our infrastructure is designed to withstand severe weather events and other risks. Today, Xcel Energy introduced our new five-year investment plan, designed to meet this demand. Our plan will expand, strengthen and modernize our energy grid so we can ensure our customers have electricity when and where they need it, while keeping our customer bills as low as possible as we drive toward a clean energy future.
