Clearway Energy Group helps lead the transition to a nation powered by clean energy. As the largest wind energy company in West Virginia, we have more than 580 MW of wind farms in our portfolio and project pipeline, enough to power 210,000 homes. Our projects help place West Virginia at the forefront of the clean energy transition, creating jobs and helping make the grid stronger and more reliable.
By investing in wind farms, we invest in the Mountain State. Its workforce, economy, regional tax base and local communities all stand to benefit from this expansion in West Virginia’s energy portfolio.
In the communities where we operate, Clearway ranks as one of the highest taxpayers, with $3.3 million combined state and local taxes paid annually. We have also fostered more than 80 long-term community partnerships with local nonprofits, educational institutions and organizations.
Each new wind farm provides an opportunity to enhance a new community, and we look forward to finding even more ways to give back.
WorkForce Training
Our wind technician pilot apprenticeship program offers paid training to workers transitioning out of the coal industry and an opportunity to start a rewarding career in renewable energy.
Through ongoing community partnerships, we can give back to our wind farm communities and create opportunities to enhance local infrastructure, provide new programming and form educational partnerships.
