She also served on the U.S. Department of Energy's Electricity Advisor Committee for five years. “I feel incredibly privileged to represent AVANGRID’s sustainability organization,” said Brown. “Working in the energy industry, particularly at AVANGRID, provides an opportunity to make a difference.

It’s an honor to work on these goals daily with teams across our company to support a clean energy future.” Earlier this week, AVANGRID released its 2022 Sustainability Report and announced it is on track to meet its ambitious ESG+F goals, indicated in the report by demonstration of clear progress in 2022 and current actions underway to support achieving its goals. AVANGRID’s industry-leading ESG goals include 2030 carbon neutrality targets for scopes 1 and 2 and reaching 16.9 GW emissions-free installed capacity by 2030. The company has earned numerous recognitions for its ESG+F efforts, including being named among the world’s most sustainable companies by S&P Global for two consecutive years, being named among the World’s Most Ethical Companies for five consecutive years and being included in the FTSE4Good Index Series for five consecutive years. “When organizations view ESG from a culture of abundance instead of a culture of scarcity, their leaders can deliver on amazing innovations for all stakeholders,” proclaimed R “Ray” Wang, founder and CEO at Constellation Research. "Those on this year’s ESG50 understand how hard it is and how important it is to balance both the bottom line and their ESG objectives.” Nominations from peers, industry influencers, technology vendors and analysts power the selection process each year. The selected executives enjoy substantive benefits and a private VIP invitation for membership to the Constellation Executive Network. Each executive demonstrates proficiency in establishing and building new business models, implementing emerging technologies and leading in an ethical and humane manner. “Our selection process began with a public nomination process and suggestions from past ESG50 recipients and our network of business leaders,” said Doug Henschen, vice president and principal analyst at Constellation Research. “In addition, we have scoured company announcements and cross-referenced myriad publicly available data sources to help us spot deserving sustainability leaders.
