Iberdrola strengthens digital talent in the US with a responsible AI “Prompt-a-thon”

Avangrid, the Iberdrola Group’s subsidiary in the United States, hosted its first “Prompt-a-thon” in Orange, Connecticut, last week — a pioneering initiative designed to enhance generative AI skills and their practical business application among early-career professionals.

The initiative brought together participants from Avangrid’s Global Graduate Programme, who collaborated in teams to address real business challenges using AI tools, with a strong emphasis on responsible, human-centred adoption. Teams worked on projects aligned with key operational priorities, including electric vehicle adoption, optimisation of onshore wind farm performance, and improvements to the customer experience.

The event highlighted AI as a strategic enabler for more efficient decision-making and innovation, combining technological capabilities with human judgement to strengthen collaboration and problem-solving.
