What TC Energy does

Canadian energy infrastructure company operating natural gas pipelines across North America plus power and liquids pipeline assets.

Earns fees for moving natural gas under long-term contracts, many with minimum payments, rather than from the gas price, plus power, mostly through a stake in Bruce Power's nuclear station. In October 2024 it spun off its oil pipelines, including Keystone, as South Bow to become a gas-focused company.
