The Energy and Policy Institute — a utility watchdog group — found that energy companies are earning steadily increasing profits even as their customers’ power bills surge.

The report analyzed financial documents from 110 investor-owned utilities, the for-profit companies that serve most Americans. That includes all of Xcel Energy’s operations in eight states, including Colorado.

I don't see anything about Xcel or record profits at the posted link. Where did the quoted portion in the body come from?
