TC Energy Corp (TRP)

Q3 2026

TC Energy lifts outlook, sells Mexico pipeline, advances Coastal GasLink Phase 2

  • Strong Q2 and raised 2026 EBITDA guidance TC Energy beat second-quarter profit estimates and now expects full-year comparable EBITDA at the top of its $11.6–$11.8 billion range. It also sanctioned about $3 billion of new gas pipeline projects in 2026, including $500 million approved in the quarter. Higher earnings and new growth work support the stock.

    This is the period's core earnings and growth news that directly lifts investor expectations for TRP.

  • CEO raises long-term North American gas demand forecast Management now sees North American natural gas demand growing by 51 billion cubic feet a day by 2035, up from 40 billion a year ago, driven by data centers, electrification and coal-to-gas switching. More demand means more need for TC Energy's pipelines and future expansion projects.

    It explains the long-term demand backdrop that underpins TRP's growth story and pipeline expansions.

  • Sells Guadalajara-Manzanillo pipeline for C$560 million TC Energy agreed to sell its Mexican Guadalajara-Manzanillo pipeline to ESENTIA affiliates for about C$560 million and will redeploy the cash into North American growth projects. The sale trims non-core assets and funds higher-return opportunities, though the price versus lost income was not disclosed.

    It is a new capital-recycling move that shifts money toward growth and supports the investment case.

  • Coastal GasLink Phase 2 proceeds after LNG Canada approval LNG Canada's positive final investment decision satisfied conditions for TC Energy's Coastal GasLink Phase 2, which will nearly double capacity on the existing route. LNG Canada leads construction, limiting TC Energy's cost and schedule exposure, and ties the company to future LNG export volumes.

    It is a major new project confirmation that adds long-term contracted growth with limited capital risk.
