Letter: PUC must prioritize vetting Iberdrola’s Avangrid plans

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • September 15, 2024

Iberdrola’s plans to buy out Avangrid and take the company private would be a sketchy deal for Maine people. Corporate interests seldom align with the public good. It’s clear that this $2.5 billion deal was not concocted with the interests of Maine ratepayers in mind. We need our regulators at the Public Utilities Commission to stand up and figure out exactly how ratepayers might be affected by the proposed ownership change. ~ Deb Fahy, Hallowell
