Avangrid is majority-owned by European utility Iberdrola. Avangrid investors must be comfortable with regulated operations across the Northeast and the outlook for the U.S. onshore and offshore renewable energy growth.
Avangrid's diversified set of utilities operate in supportive regulatory jurisdictions, reducing the risk of adverse rulings and supporting long-term earnings and dividend growth.
Avangrid's aggressive investment plan increases regulatory risk, particularly with offshore wind where costs are rising. Regulatory relationships in the Northeast can be challenging at times.
