NRG Energy has emerged as the top-performing stock in the S&P 500 for 2025, with a remarkable year-to-date increase of 73%. Driven by the growing demand for energy to support data centers and the recent announcement of a $12 billion acquisition of LS Power's generation assets, analysts remain optimistic about NRG's potential.
