In early November, Entergy Louisiana’s specialized substation technicians installed and energized a high-voltage clean-air vacuum breaker at the Jennings substation. This new equipment is part of the first few installations for Entergy’s four-state service area and the first installment of this size in the country for the manufacturing partner.

For decades, Entergy has been at the forefront of addressing climate issues and has positioned itself as one of the cleanest large-scale generation fleets in the United States.

Adding to its growing fleet of utility-scale solar generating facilities, Entergy Arkansas has announced the start of commercial operations at Walnut Bend Solar Energy Center. The 100-megawatt solar energy center is located in Lee County to the east of Brinkley, Arkansas.
