July 20, 2023
Wind and solar projects power over 2.8 million homes while driving local economic growth and job creation.

Avangrid has achieved an impressive capacity of 8.6 GW across its extensive portfolio of over 70 operational wind and solar facilities throughout the country. These facilities generate clean and renewable energy equivalent to powering more than 2.8 million homes, making a significant contribution to reducing carbon emissions.

The energy company’s wind and solar facilities are spread across 24 states, playing a vital role in helping each state meet its environmental objectives. Apart from their positive environmental impact, these facilities bring tangible benefits to local communities by creating job opportunities and stimulating economic growth.

The company intends to launch a social media campaign to commemorate this capacity milestone, highlighting its investments and presence in each state where the company operates. The campaign will focus on showcasing the number of solar and wind projects, the total operating capacity, and the economic advantages associated with each state. Additionally, the campaign will provide insights into each state's energy goals and share unique facts about specific projects.
