Eversource Invests $3.2 Million to Upgrade Natural Gas System in Waterbury, Connecticut
Daily Energy Insider reported: The utility Eversource is currently investing $3.2 million into natural gas distribution system upgrades in Waterbury, Connecticut.

It builds on the nearly 140 miles of aging gas lines they have already been replaced since 2012 and, in the end, the hope is that they will have a more durable and temperature weatherable pipe system. “These investments allow us to further modernize the gas distribution system, minimizing repairs and any service interruptions,” Bill Akley, Eversource president of Gas Operations, said. “Proactively upgrading the system helps to ensure our customers in Connecticut have a better, stronger network for decades to come.” For more on this story visit dailyenergyinsider.com or click https://bit.ly/2qeXhGi
