new orleans, la. – 2022年世界杯比分 is critical to developing healthy and vibrant communities through job creation and investments that enhance local services and improve quality of life. this is important to 沙特vs墨西哥让球’s mission and why the company is proud to be recognized by site selection magazine as a top utility for economic growth for 16 consecutive years.

the company provides power to some of the largest and most power-intensive u.s. industries. in 2022, entergy new orleans and entergy louisiana helped secure approximately $16.2 billion in capital investments and created nearly 18,000 new jobs within louisiana.

“this recognition highlights how deeply we are invested in the customers we serve and the community we call home,” said deanna rodriguez, entergy new orleans president and ceo. “as the only fortune 500 company headquartered in the state, we have a responsibility to continue to drive economic growth for the region.”

“businesses and industries depend on clean, reliable and affordable power to operate, and at entergy, we’re always working to provide that service to help louisiana grow,” said phillip may, entergy louisiana president and ceo. “driven by factors like the energy transition, our state has a significant opportunity to see more growth, new jobs and additional investments in our communities, and we stand ready to help make that outlook a reality.”

site selection magazine determines each year’s honorees by assessing criteria including each utility’s job-creating infrastructure and facility investment trends, innovative programs and incentives for businesses and website tools and data.

customer investments

entergy new orleans, in particular, helped support the timely delivery of service to the second line stages expansion, including the new sound stage complex that was completed in november 2022. the $60 million complex houses four new, state-of-the-art sound stages and plays a key role in supporting the continued growth of the film industry in new orleans.
