Buffalo’s newest look has a connection to our history. ⚡💙💛 The @BuffaloSabres' new Hometown Remix jersey draws inspiration from the story of electricity in Western New York, including our historic North Tonawanda Transformer Building and the pioneering work that helped bring power from Niagara Falls to Buffalo. To celebrate the connection, we lit up the building in blue and gold. @NHL Read the full story from The Buffalo News:

Small businesses play a big role in making our communities stronger. 🧁 Kaylena Marie’s Bakery in Hamburg, NY participated in our Economic Development Grant Program, designed to support economic development and business growth across New York. For local developer Michael Lignos, that support helped bring new life to an abandoned 19th-century Buffalo building, transforming it into a modern bakery and meeting place. From site development and urban revitalization to infrastructure assistance, energy efficiency and productivity improvements, the program helps businesses and communities invest in growth while making efficient use of existing energy infrastructure.

The Staten Island Energy Affordability Initiative is making a lasting impact across the borough. 💙 In partnership with the Staten Island Chamber of Commerce Foundation, the National Grid Foundation helped provide direct financial assistance to local businesses and nonprofits facing increased energy costs. During yesterday’s press conference, recipients shared firsthand how the grants helped ease financial pressures and support critical upgrades. It was a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we invest in our communities.

Beneath the streets of Dorchester and Brighton, history runs deep. Some gas pipes still in service today were installed more than 100 years ago, including cast iron pipe dating back to 1898. That’s why we're replacing aging infrastructure across Massachusetts, helping improve safety, reduce leaks, lower environmental impacts, and ensure reliable energy service for the communities we proudly serve.

It takes a dedicated workforce to make sure we’re ready for the days our customers need us most. From maintaining and investing in our energy systems to keeping them operating safely and reliably, our people are working every day to serve our customers and communities, through the coldest days of winter and beyond. Being there for our customers also means making sure they know where to turn when they need a little extra support. If you’re concerned about your energy bill this winter, there are programs and resources available that can help. Learn more:

Our Week of Service at the Cornell Cooperative Extension Suffolk County Farm & Education Center in Yaphank brought employees and farm staff together for a day of meaningful impact and community partnership. Volunteers completed several long-needed projects, including repairing and painting animal enclosure fences, improving drainage, and leveling animal pens, enhancing the farm’s ability to care for its animals and welcome thousands of visitors each year. The effort was supported by our donation of project materials and the dedication of Farm staff. The improvements made during the day will benefit the Farm for years to come, strengthening its educational mission and visitor experience. The event also marked the sixth anniversary of our Grid for Good program, highlighting our ongoing commitment to giving back to Long Island communities.

Last week, more than 1,000 students joined this year's GLOW With Your Hands event in Batavia, NY, to explore STEM careers and get a firsthand look at opportunities in the skilled trades and technical fields. Through hands-on experiences and conversations with professionals from several companies, including ours, students learned about the skills, tools and education required to pursue a variety of careers.

On Hunger Action Day, our team joined the Greater Boston Food Bank as part of our Week of Service, helping pack grocery bags for seniors across the region. Together, we handled more than 8,000 pounds of food and helped make 6,960 meals possible. We also partnered with the Greater Boston Food Bank to share multilingual information about gas meter changes, helping connect customers with important resources. Thank you for having us, and thank you to the Greater Boston Food Bank for all you do to support our communities every day. 💙@Gr8BosFoodBank

Sometimes the best career advice is simply seeing the job for yourself.   More than 1,000 students from 24 schools across New York joined us in Albany for our Career Pathway Expo, where they connected with employees from more than 20 National Grid departments, explored hands-on demonstrations, and learned about the many careers that help power our communities.   From engineering and operations to technology and emergency response, students had the opportunity to see firsthand how different skills and interests can lead to meaningful careers in the energy industry.   A special thank you to the more than 100 employee volunteers who shared their time, experiences, and expertise to help inspire the next generation of talent.

Last week, we joined @BrGround to celebrate the opening of Sutphin Senior Residence in Jamaica, Queens, a new affordable and supportive housing development that will provide 173 homes for local seniors. Through our Cinderella Grant program, we helped bring this project to life.🏠💙

As part of our Week of Service, dozens of employees rolled up their sleeves today to support a local farm that's helping feed Long Island. At Crossroads Farm in Malverne, 30 volunteers spent the day harvesting fresh vegetables and planting crops for the fall season. The organic community farm supplies produce to local restaurants and healthcare facilities while also providing educational programs for the community. We were there as volunteers helped strengthen a homegrown effort to bring fresh, local food to Long Island families.

When schools use less energy, they can focus more resources where they belong: on students and educators. Through our partnership with @MassSave, we're helping schools across Massachusetts lower energy use, improve comfort, and make every energy dollar go further. So far in 2026, we've supported energy upgrades at 55 schools across the state. One example is @QuincyPS’ Lincoln Hancock Elementary School, where a pool heat pump project, building management system, and LED lighting upgrades are helping save more than $64,000 annually in electric utility costs, while improving efficiency and supporting the school’s long-term energy goals. 📸 Pictured at Lincoln Hancock Elementary School are Sean McGloin and Amanda Formica from our Municipal Energy Efficiency team with partners from Quincy Public Buildings Department, MA DOER Green Communities, and @EnergySourceLLC

When severe weather hits, technology can make a big difference. During this weekend's storm, FLISR (Fault Location, Isolation and Service Restoration) automatically restored power to more than 12,000 customers in less than a minute. By automatically isolating outages and rerouting power around damaged equipment when possible, FLISR helps restore service faster and reduce the impact of outages. While crews worked to repair storm damage, this technology helped keep the lights on for thousands of customers across Massachusetts. FLISR is one example of how investments in the delivery portion of customers' bills help support grid modernization, improve reliability, and strengthen the electric system against increasingly severe weather.

A big thank you to @Syracuse1848 and mayor Sharon Owens for joining us during our Day of Service and for the kind words. When our employees step away from their usual roles to volunteer across the community, it's another way we show up for the people and neighborhoods we serve. Whether it's restoring energy, supporting local organizations, or lending a hand where it's needed most, we're committed to being part of the communities we call home. 💙
