    It’s not every day you get interviewed by the governor! Washington Governor Jay Inslee turned into a news reporter while visiting the Avangrid National Control Center in Vancouver, Washington and interviewed Renewables Chief Operating Officer Jorge Pedron. We are proud to have welcomed Governor Inslee at the Avangrid NCC today. The governor has helped lead the #cleanenergy transition for more than a decade and we are happy to show him how we’re leading renewable energy development in his state and around the country. The NCC serves as the nerve-center of our #renewableenergy operations, remotely operating our wind and solar facilities spread across nearly half the country.

  • What a year! The nearly 8,000 people of Avangrid are our greatest strength.

So to celebrate, we're highlighting 24 (awards) in '24, and some of the people behind them. Today, we shine the spotlight on our recognition from Ethisphereas one of the World's Most Ethical Companies -- our 6th time receiving the honor.

  • Ever wonder what it's like to work at a wind farm on top of a mountain? Well, hear from our technicians at the Hoosac Wind Power Project located in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. The 28.5 MW project with 19 turbines can generate enough power for about 10,000 homes.

    Avangrid joined us recently at the Preble Street Food Security Hub (FSH) for a volunteer shift. In addition to having great volunteers, Avangrid is a financial supporter of Preble Street's anti-hunger work. They recently awarded Preble Street a $50,000 grant to support the kitchen upgrades at the FSH as part of its ongoing expansion and renovations. A 5,000 square-foot commercial kitchen, the FSH's new kitchen will increase the efficiency and safety of meal production, bolster our efforts to connect with local farmers, and vastly improve Preble Street’s capacity to store and handle food donations. Thank you, Avangrid, for being a supportive and hands-on partner in the work to end hunger in Maine! Learn more about the FSH here: https://lnkd.in/gtNY6RSQ

  • More #hybrid bucket trucks are on the way! At Avangrid, we are further electrifying our utility fleet, adding 130+ hybrid bucket trucks over the next three years, enhancing our #sustainability efforts. These trucks use a diesel engine to drive but need only electricity to operate the bucket lift. The benefits? ✔️Safety: Reduced exhaust fumes and quieter operation. ✔️Fuel efficiency: Electric motor for bucket lift and climate control. ✔️Longevity: Less engine wear and tear. CEO Pedro Azagra: “Hybrid vehicles will also improve the health and safety of our employees and the communities we serve, while preserving Avangrid’s ability to respond to emergencies in our service area and beyond.” More: https://ow.ly/H58I50Upc7N
