Real community impact! 🦾👉 Thanks to Avangrid volunteers in Goldendale, Washington, who recently spent part of their Saturday helping prepare the local community pool for summer. Avangrid staff (along with some of their family members) recently helped take down the dome covering the Central Klickitat County Parks and Recreation District pool. It wasn’t easy, but thanks to all of the help this year, we’re told the dome came down in record time! Just another way Avangrid gives back to the communities where we operate.

✅ Construction completed ✅ Connected to the grid Our newest solar project is installed and producing electricity in Oregon. Tower Solar has a capacity of 166 MWdc and uses more than 250,000 U.S.-assembled solar panels. It's a major investment in our American energy infrastructure, supporting growing electricity demand across the Pacific Northwest while creating approximately 200 local construction jobs. The project will also contribute an estimated $20 million in local taxes and payments to support community services like education. "As demand for electricity continues to grow across the United States and in the Pacific Northwest, projects like Tower Solar are essential to delivering new generation at scale,” said Avangrid CEO Jose Antonio Miranda. “Furthermore, this project demonstrates how investment in America���s electrical infrastructure contributes to our domestic economy, supports union workers, and delivers reliable electricity to support the region’s growth.” Read more: https://ow.ly/w7Ye50Z6MQN

⚡ Another milestone for Maine’s energy future! We're proud to celebrate the energization of Central Maine Power Company’s new smart grid facility in Westbrook — a significant step forward in building a more resilient, reliable, and responsive electric system for our customers. This state-of-the-art facility enhances visibility and control across the grid, helping us respond faster to outages, integrate more energy sources, and deliver better service across the region. It’s a key milestone in our ongoing commitment to #grid modernization — strengthening infrastructure today while preparing for the energy needs of tomorrow. “This switching station is a major step forward with reliable, modern infrastructure like this that is essential to unlocking economic development in both our city and our state," said Westbrook Mayor David Morse. "Developers look for strong, dependable power when deciding where to invest, and this project will be a true game changer. Beyond the local impact, it also strengthens regional reliability, especially during extreme weather events."

ICYMI: The Avangrid Foundation is proud to be part of an amazing waterfront rejuvenation project happening in Bridgeport, Connecticut. As part of a $100,000 grant to the Trust for Public Land, we're contributing to the Bridgeport Seawalk project, an effort to create a 20-mile walking path and recreation areas on the city's waterfront, connecting tens of thousands of people to the Long Island Sound. A cornerstone of that project will be the "Sliver by the River," a refurbishing of a neglected 3-acre vacant lot as a thriving native salt marsh with a kayak launch and dock. The park will provide space for people to get outside, curtail flooding, minimize storm water runoff, rejuvenate the Pequannock River, and serve as an educational platform for those eager to discover nature’s wonders, right in an urban environment in downtown Bridgeport.
