West Virginia is transforming its coal industry legacy by hosting Form Energy's new factory in Weirton, which produces long duration energy storage systems. Supported by a $290 million state incentive and a $150 million federal award, the facility aims to expand significantly by 2028, creating over 750 jobs and enhancing the renewable energy supply chain. This initiative highlights a shift towards sustainable energy solutions amid ongoing debates over fossil fuel investments in the state.
Coal dominates Wyoming's electricity grid at 72.66%, but production has plummeted by 40% since 2015 due to plant closures and renewable competition. Airloom's innovative wind turbine design, supported by $1.25 million from the Department of Defense, aims to reduce costs and enhance wind energy's role in the state's future. With significant investments and a focus on transportable systems, Wyoming is positioning itself as a leader in clean energy innovation.

Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
