Meta’s move to Louisiana: Good for the state, and a big win for Entergy customers

An op-ed by Phillip May, president and CEO of Entergy Louisiana: With recent approval by the Louisiana Public Service Commission, Meta will soon join our grid. This allows Entergy Louisiana to build several new transmission and three new modern, efficient generation facilities in a way that not only serves Meta’s future data center but also strengthens reliability and resiliency across our service area and keeps rates low for all of our customers.

The Gulf South, particularly communities within Louisiana, is home to the largest industrial economy in the United States. The energy needs of this group of customers is unique and energy demands are growing, including new industry coming to Louisiana. Developing environmental policy that balances the needs of this industry and their associated jobs with the future of our state and region is critical for a prosperous, sustainable future.

Helping bring a brighter future to our youngest customers

It’s been nearly 20 years since Entergy’s former CEO, the late Wayne Leonard, saw the critical need for businesses to support childhood education programs and organizations. Through an economic study, we found that every dollar spent on high-quality early childhood education returns $9 in benefits to society.
