Oct 31 (Reuters) -Xcel Energy XEL.O reported a rise in third-quarter profit on Thursday, helped by higher electricity demand among commercial and industrial customers as well as lower costs.

The company, which has 3.8 million electric and 2.1 million natural gas customers across eight Western and Midwestern U.S. states, also launched a five-year, $45 billion investment plan for infrastructure upgrades.

Its targets include5%-per-year electric sales growth, of which about 50% comes fromdata centers, company executives said during a post-earnings call.

Xcel remains bullish about data center demand and said it had nearly9,000 megawatts of opportunities in its customer pipeline before 2030.

"We anticipate we will secure contracts with about 25% of this pipeline in the five-year forecast period," CEO Bob Frenzel said.

Xcel'stotal retail electric sales rose 1.5% in the reported quarter.

The company reaffirmed its 2024 earnings-per-share forecast of $3.50 to $3.60.

It posted net income of $682 million, or $1.21 per share, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with $656 million, or $1.19 per share, a year ago.
