Avangrid and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through their affiliate Vineyard Offshore, joined Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey on Martha’s Vineyard for a tour of the O&M facilities set to provide long-term support services for the 806 MW Vineyard Wind 1 project.
As part of the visit, the group toured the newly constructed marine terminal and an O&M service building on Beach Road.
“Governor Healey is a steadfast champion for clean energy, climate action and historic Massachusetts communities like Martha’s Vineyard, so Avangrid was proud to join the governor to tour the critical facilities that will serve as the base of operations for our first-in-the-nation Vineyard Wind 1 project,” says Avangrid CEO Pedro Azagra.
“Locating our O&M headquarters in Vineyard Haven is a reflection of the island’s proud history, as well as the important role this community will play in pioneering Massachusetts’ clean energy future. Avangrid looks forward to leading the operations and maintenance services for this first-in-the-nation project once it achieves commercial operations, and strengthening our bonds in the Martha’s Vineyard community for decades to come.”
