Wind is Working for Local Women
Offshore wind projects across the U.S. have created thousands of jobs and invested upwards of $25 billion into the American supply chain. Those investments are having a real impact in local communities, including New Bedford.
Meet Britney Ganeto, a proud New Bedford native and Owner of New B Cleaning, a locally owned business serving the Greater New Bedford region since 2022. As a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) through the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office (SDO), New B Cleaning has supported Vineyard Wind 1 contractors by providing essential in-home cleaning services during crew changes, ensuring a comfortable and refreshed transition for offshore workers.
American offshore energy is about good-paying jobs, local business growth, power reliability, and energy security. Wind is working for New Bedford & the United States! Let’s continue to develop this vital maritime industry and deliver real economic benefits to our economy and communities.
