U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm spoke to economic development and community leaders at today’s roundtable discussion at NETL in Morgantown, West Virginia, saying that energy communities in the Mountain State and other parts of the country will not be left behind as the nation undergoes a transformation to clean energy technologies. Secretary Granholm was joined at the Energy Communities and Economy Forum by U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, who chairs the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, and nearly 50 stakeholders to discuss steps the Biden Administration is taking to support communities hard hit by declines in the use of fossil resources to generate power.
