The AI's read
The stronger growth plan could help PPL serve rising electricity demand, including from data centers. Its third-quarter results beat estimates, and sales rose 11.5%. Some new projects still depend on customers moving ahead. PPL expects to raise about $3 billion by issuing shares, which can leave current owners with a smaller piece of the company. It also expects dividend growth near the bottom of its 4%-6% range. These costs temper the case, but the higher growth target and larger investment plan carry more weight.
