CenterPoint Energy Inc. (NYSE:CNP) is ramping up hiring and infrastructure investments as part of a broader push to meet fast-growing electricity needs across Houston.
The company plans to add 200 lineworkers by the end of 2025 and nearly 800 by 2030 to support a 10-year, $53 billion capital plan. These efforts come as electricity demand in the region is projected to surge by 50% by 2031.
