    Kinder Morgan EPS Grows 32% on AI-Driven Natural Gas Demand

    Question

    Kinder Morgan EPS Grows 32% on AI-Driven Natural Gas Demand

    Direct answer

    Kinder Morgan's results provide concrete evidence that the AI boom is translating into physical energy infrastructure demand. The 32% EPS growth was largely fueled by the need for reliable power generation to support data centers, which increasingly rely on natural gas as a bridge fuel. The company's upward revision of its 2026 outlook suggests that the market may be underestimating the pace of energy demand growth associated with the next phase of AI scaling.
