"Avangrid Cancels $8.3 Billion Acquisition of PNM Resources"
Iberdrola's U.S. subsidiary, Avangrid, has called off its $8.3 billion acquisition of PNM Resources due to the failure to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals by the end of 2023. The New Mexico Public Regulation Commission had previously rejected the deal, citing more risks than benefits for state ratepayers. Despite the termination of this deal, Avangrid remains committed to investing in renewable energy projects across the United States, including wind and solar developments in New Mexico and large-scale projects in New York, Maine, and the first large-scale offshore wind project, Vineyard Wind. Iberdrola continues to focus on substantial investments in the U.S., with a significant budget allocated for investments between 2023 and 2025.
