Our DNA


What sets us apart

Experience

Our team deploys their decades of experience in developing and operating large-scale transmission projects across North America.

Partnership

We are collaborative to our core, working with utilities, regulators, and stakeholders to deliver for customers.

Agility

We are utility grade yet nimble, marked by hands-on leadership, flexibility, innovation, and speed.

Integrity

We say what we do and we do what we say, honoring commitments and staying accountable throughout the project lifecycle.

Viridon is proudly sponsored by funds affiliated with Blackstone Inc. (NYSE: BX), one of the world’s leading alternative asset managers. Blackstone’s long-term capital and infrastructure experience supports our ability to develop, finance, own and operate even the largest and most complex transmission assets.


At Viridon, we are building more than just power lines—we are building a better future.
