NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2024 / I think it's funny when people say 'utilities aren't known as innovators'. They've not seen us in storm mode.
We adapt technology we built to the chaos of storms, and it's world class. I made this video to tell that story.
AIR is a tool that expedited restoration efforts during Hurricanes Helene and Milton. It was built in-house by Duke Energy Corporation employees who have a massive stake in the communities they serve because they live in them.
Thank you Maya Hutchins, Joe Santella, Brian Anderson and Tyler Johnson for sharing your story and the incredible work you do.
