关于我们
Clean Grid Alliance's mission is to advance renewable energy in the Midwest. We work to create new opportunities for renewables to participate in the energy marketplace in nine Midwestern states, including Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. We do this by bringing our diverse membership of clean energy advocacy organizations and businesses together toward our vision of delivering a renewable energy future and leveraging our technical expertise to expand markets and build support. Launched in 2001 to create a “road to market” for wind energy, Clean Grid Alliance has broadened its scope of work to also include solar, storage and other emerging technologies. Our work continues to concentrate on policy and technical aspects of connecting wind, solar, storage, and hybrid projects to the transmission grid and delivering that renewable energy to market. We do this by focusing on transmission planning, creating equitable rules that govern the use of the electric grid, laying the public policy foundation on which to build a robust renewable energy future in the Midwest, and educating key decision makers at state regulatory agencies and legislatures as well as the general public about the benefits of renewables. Clean Grid Alliance is working to: * Create new opportunities for renewables to participate in the energy marketplace * Drive grid policy and transmission planning * Conduct broad education and outreach activities in the Midwest Clean Grid Alliance is a non-profit organization whose members include wind, solar, and storage developers and manufacturers, non-profit environmental, public interest and clean energy advocacy organizations, farmer organizations, and other businesses that support renewable energy. Clean Grid Alliance is the leading clean energy advocacy group in the Midwest, and the regional affiliate of the American Clean Power Association.

BREAKING NEWS: The Cardinal-Hickory Creek Transmission line was energized on September 26. The line will carry clean energy across the Midwest, improving grid reliability and helping states reach their clean energy goals. Thirteen years ago, the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) assembled a portfolio of 17 high-voltage transmission lines titled Multi-Value Projects (MVP). Cardinal-Hickory Creek was the final MVP line to be energized. At CGA, we are thrilled to see over a decade's worth of work come to fruition, but 13 years is too long to build this crucial infrastructure. As we look toward future transmission projects, like MISO's Tranche 1 portfolio, we will continue to advocate for upgraded transmission across the Midwest.
