If you’ve ever remodeled your home, you probably know what it’s like to juggle numerous invoices from contractors and specialists. There’s a truckload of numbers and narratives, and it’s up to you to make sure they agree with what’s in your original contract. It can be daunting, to say the least. Now imagine that you’re at Eversource dealing with hundreds of complicated contracts for dozens of projects across the state—projects that ensure customers have reliable and affordable energy to power their lives. Fortunately, we have people like Victoria Covill, to manage that, and she doesn’t break a sweat.
Throwback Thursday: This time last year, we were breaking ground on our first-of-its kind underground substation in the City of Cambridge. It's come a long way! 🤩 Together with BXP, Inc., the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority (CRA) and the city, here's what we've accomplished so far to meet the rapidly growing demand for energy in Greater Boston while also creating new green space for the community: ✅ Installed eight new utility vaults and 4,000+ linear feet of underground transmission duct bank ✅ Started upgrades to our electric system that will include 350+ feet of new duct bank and three additional utility vaults ✅ Reached a final depth of 120 feet for the future home of the nation’s largest fully underground electric substation 🤝 Thank you to all our neighbors, local businesses, and community organizations for your partnership. The input you provided over years of close collaboration helped to shape this innovative approach and made our project better. We're looking forward to another year of safe, community‑centered progress.
It takes something extra special to get employees volunteering all night in the freezing cold to make snow. ❄️ That something? The 170 athletes competing in the Special Olympics Connecticut Winter Games. Andy Ouellette and his fellow volunteers start prepping five months out, logging nearly 100 hours to create the man-made magic that makes these games possible. Check out NBC Connecticut's story to see how it all comes together:

Santa's helpers were on the move for My Brother's Keeper this week! 🎅 After picking up donated gifts in Easton, our Fleet Operations team delivered holiday cheer to families in our southeastern communities. We're grateful to all our volunteers who helped support the effort to make the holidays bright for our neighbors.
We got a chance to spend some time with the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation in Hillsborough, NH to get an inside look into the ongoing conservation efforts to protect turtle nesting.

Stay tuned for the video. Thanks, Eric!
