In plain English
American Electric Power is a regulated electric utility that keeps the lights on for ~5.6 million customers across 11 states — owning one of the largest transmission grids in the US (~40,000 circuit-miles). Its growth story has flipped: after years of flat demand, an explosion of data-centre and industrial load is driving a ~$72B five-year capital plan to build transmission, generation and distribution. Earnings are set by state regulators on the capital it invests, so wires and power plants are the engine.
