“This is exceptional news for West Virginia’s economy and workforce,” said Chris Hamilton, President of the West Virginia Coal Association. “We congratulate Governor Morrisey, the West Virginia Legislature and the Public Service Commission for passing and implementing the provisions included in the microgrid legislation which are meant to capitalize on the opportunities West Virginia’s coal resources offer to our great state. These efforts dovetail with President Trump’s Executive Orders to maximize the use of coal for economic prosperity, national security and energy independence.”
