Cold weather complicates excavation with frozen ground, shifting soil, and snow, adding risk. Request new utility marks if snow covers or erases them. Respect the Tolerance Zone even in frozen conditions, and always contact 811 before digging.

🚁 Where we’re going, we don’t need roads… just helicopters! @nationalgridus is taking line maintenance to new heights in Schaghticoke! By using helicopters, we’re cutting project time —saving money, reducing land impact, and boosting reliability for our communities.

Ever wonder where your @nationalgridus bill really goes? @CBS6Albany's @emmaquinnCBS6 breaks it down: 38% covers electricity supply, 62% goes to delivery — including crews, trucks, drones, etc. Your bill also funds state programs and taxes. #EnergyCosts

Everyone wants to crank up AC when it's this hot but remember, like your home, when too many things are running, you can overload it. Stay cool, but take steps to reduce electric use, and save a few dollars. @CBS6Albany @emmaquinnCBS6

Thank you to @emmaquinnCBS6 @CBS6Albany for stopping by Hope 7 Community Center in Troy this week as our local crews donated food for the summer season. Often summer donations drop off, so our local employees chipped in to help out!

Recently, @nationalgridus hosted area students from Junior Achievement to learn about many of the career paths available with the utility. We hope to see some of these young people guiding the energy system of tomorrow in the not-so-distant future.
