Here's a look back at #KittyHawkWind Project Director Betsy Andrews’ #IPF2024 panel on ways autonomous underwater vehicle innovation can support #offshorewind surveys and inspections to improve health & safety and result in lower carbon emissions than traditional survey vessels.

#KittyHawkWind shared insights as part of the offshore wind panel at the 2024 Southeast and Mid-Atlantic Marine Mammal Symposium. This regional scientific meeting covers everything from marine mammal conservation and behavior to anatomy and physiology. Proud SEAMAMMS sponsor.

Today we celebrate International Day for Women in Maritime by featuring this panel of women from @VaBeachED, Hampton Roads Alliance, Hampton Roads Workforce Council & Virginia Maritime who shared the benefits of #offshorewind projects in the region with the maritime community at ODU's Maritime event in April

Did you know? The average utility-scale wind turbine consists of about 8,000 parts. The growing domestic supply chain now includes over 80% of nacelle assembly and up to 70% of tower manufacturing occurring in the US for turbines installed here. hubs.ly/Q02y8M-j0

Honoring the legacy and sacrifice of our nation’s heroes, who laid down their lives serving our country.

The US #offshorewind industry is already “driving over $25 billion in new investment, rebuilding communities, creating good-paying jobs... strengthening the reliability of the grid, and delivering clean, American-made energy to our homes.” Read more: hubs.ly/Q02z6n0Q0

#KittyHawkWind is gearing up for another exciting year at the 66th Annual Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament coming up in #MoreheadCityNC. Remember to swing by our booth while you are stopping by the Big Rock Store! Proud 2024 Big Rock Tournament Tournament sponsor. #BigRockTournament

On #WorldEnvironmentDay we celebrate the Saint-Brieuc #offshorewind project--the 4th fully commissioned OSW project by Iberdrola. bit.ly/4aMgnrl Avangrid is leading the development of offshore wind in the US with this global experience from our family of companies.

“According to NOAA, moving to more #renewableenergy sources is starting to slow sea-level rise.” However, time is of the essence. By 2050, researchers expect 1-3 feet of sea-level rise in Hampton Roads and 1/3 of the world’s ports to become unusable. hubs.ly/Q02B7z_r0

Huge opening day this year at the 66th Annual Big Rock Tournament Tournament when the 1st blue marlin weighing over 500 lbs was reeled in to win the Fabulous Fisherman division worth $1.729 Million. hubs.ly/Q02BzrzG0 Congratulations #HatterasNC based ‘Release!’ #KittyHawkWind

Lines are in for Day 4 at the Big Rock Tournament Tournament. #KittyHawkWind is having a blast meeting attendees at our booth by the Big Rock Store. Stop by to meet the team, grab giveaways & learn more about how #offshorewind will coexist with the ocean environment. Good luck all!

It's Global Wind Day! We’re celebrating innovation in the industry with Avangrid’s partnership with WindLoop to test a new process for wind turbine blade recycling. Avangrid plans to recycle 100% of its decommissioned turbine blades by 2030. Read more: hubs.ly/Q02BYMDg0

Congrats to the three Hampton Roads schools named as winners in the '24 World KidWind Project Competition for their innovative turbine designs tested for best output & endurance in high wind speeds! #KittyHawkWind is a proud VA KidWind Challenge sponsor. hubs.ly/Q02CgF4C0

Did you know…Avangrid has had a presence in the region since the Amazon Wind Farm's inception in 2006? This project was NC’s first commercial scale wind project, which began supplying clean energy to power Amazon Web Services Inc.’s cloud data centers in 2016. #KittyHawkWind

Our #KittyHawkWind team was thrilled to be part of sportfishing history in the making with industry record prizes won at the Big Rock Tournament Tournament. By the numbers: 302 boats 268 releases $7.5 million+ total purse $2.2 million+ top prize Full recap at: hubs.ly/Q02Dg80M0

Members of Avangrid’s #offshorewind team for ports, environment, workforce development, fisheries & outreach gathered at the Oak Bluffs dock terminal for crew transfer vessels while touring #VineyardWind1’s new Operations & Maintenance facility in Vineyard Haven, MA last week.

Local environmental groups like LRNow partnered with the City of #VirginiaBeach on a new Beach Toy Recycling Box program to reduce plastic pollution in our local waterways. hubs.ly/Q02FdysQ0 Four oceanfront toy boxes offer items donated or left behind for kids to enjoy.

Wishing you a safe, fun-filled July 4th celebration from our #KittyHawkWind family to yours. Happy Independence Day!

Did you know? One rotation of an offshore wind turbine generates enough clean energy to power an average household for more than 2 days.

Congrats to the Avangrid team working on the New England 1 & 2 #offshorewind projects in the northeast for receiving full federal approval for construction last week. Great momentum for a new US industry that is accelerating the clean energy transition. hubs.ly/Q02GPkmN0
