"With the strategic vision and experience of Vita Nuova and the practical expertise of AC Power, this team will channel the momentum of the Inflation Reduction Act to repurpose sites, empower communities, and support workforce development," said Annika Colston, President and Founder of AC Power "We will do more together – more projects, more complex problem solving, and more community benefits - thereby achieving the nation's goal of environmental justice in America's great energy transition."
