Pinnacle West (NYSE: PNW) reported Q3 2025 consolidated net income of $413.2 million, or $3.39 per diluted share, versus $395.0 million, or $3.37, a year earlier. Results reflected higher customer usage, customer growth and transmission revenues, partly offset by weather effects, higher interest charges and lower tax credits. The company raised its 2025 consolidated EPS guidance to $4.90–$5.10 and estimates 2026 consolidated EPS $4.55–$4.75 (weather-normalized). Operationally, APS saw record summer demand with an all-time peak of 8,631 MW on Aug. 7 and plans >$2.5 billion annual infrastructure investment through 2028.

Arizona Public Service (PNW) announced the Desert Sun Power Plant, a two-phase natural gas facility west of Gila Bend to add up to 2,000 MW of flexible generation to Arizona's grid. Phase 1 will be procured competitively and is slated to begin serving customers by late 2030. APS says Phase 2 will use an innovative subscription model where extra-large users (data centers) sign long-term contracts to fund capital costs and assume development risk, protecting existing residential and small business customers from those expansion costs. APS expects to link the plant to gas via the proposed Transwestern Pipeline expansion and to build transmission connections. APS also cited plans to add ~7,300 MW by 2028 and noted extra-large requests exceeding 19,000 MW.

AZ-VC has announced the launch of its second venture capital fund, AZ-VC II, following the success of its $115 million Fund I. Led by former PayPal executive Jack Selby, the fund focuses on non-coastal startups, targeting Series A investments in post-revenue companies with proven product-market fit.

The fund is backed by notable Arizona-based limited partners including Pinnacle West Corporation, Western Alliance Bancorp, Trinity Capital (NASDAQ: TRIN), and Salt River Project. AZ-VC's investment strategy capitalizes on an average 70% valuation discount compared to coastal companies with similar metrics, addressing the significant disparity where California, New York, and Massachusetts receive 75% of venture capital despite representing only 22% of the U.S. population.

Arizona utilities including APS (NYSE:PNW), SRP, TEP, UniSource, and City of Mesa have announced commitment plans for Transwestern Pipeline's Desert Southwest expansion project. The new natural gas pipeline will transport gas from the Permian Basin in West Texas to Arizona by late 2029.

APS and SRP have already executed agreements with Transwestern, while the City of Mesa, TEP, and UniSource are finalizing negotiations. The project addresses Arizona's growing energy needs, as all existing interstate pipelines serving Arizona are currently fully subscribed. The new infrastructure will support reliability during peak demand periods and complement the integration of renewable energy sources.

The initiative aims to maintain grid reliability as Arizona experiences unprecedented growth, with utilities planning significant expansion of generating resources. For instance, SRP plans to at least double its generating resources in the next 10 years to meet increasing energy demand in the Phoenix metropolitan area.

Pinnacle West (NYSE: PNW) reported Q2 2025 consolidated net income of $192.6 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, down from $203.8 million, or $1.76 per share, in Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily due to milder weather conditions, with 15.4% fewer cooling degree-days compared to 2024.

Despite lower earnings, the company demonstrated strong operational performance with customer growth of 2.4% and sales growth of 5.2%. APS set a new all-time peak demand record of 8,527 megawatts on July 9, 2025. The company maintains its 2025 earnings guidance of $4.40 to $4.60 per diluted share on a weather-normalized basis.
