Barrett Stambler, Avangrid Renewables Vice President of Origination is enthusiastic about the partnership. “Working with partners like Nike who have relentless focus on driving the development and availability of renewable energy is exciting and inspiring. This partnership allows us to have a very positive impact in the local communities where we own and operate these wind farms, creating jobs & economic development for rural America and advancing our country’s energy independence.”[1]
