AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Energy & Grid Policy: West Virginia lawmakers heard that data centers could help improve water quality and infrastructure, even as residents in the southern coalfields worry about water access for new power and data center plans. Manufacturing Jobs: Kibar Americas reopened the former Novelis aluminum plant in Fairmont, restarting production of aluminum products and targeting up to 150 jobs. Education & Workforce: WVU Tech launched the Golden Scholars program, funded by Larry and Lisa Pack, covering remaining tuition, housing and meals for high-achieving students from 13 southern counties starting fall 2027. Transportation & Construction: Charleston’s DOT says more paving, high-friction treatments, and updated signing are coming around the Eugene A. Carter Memorial Bridge rehab, with work progressing on schedule. Environmental Reality Check: Autumn olive—once planted for wildlife and mine reclamation—has now been labeled invasive in parts of Appalachia, with long-running conservation efforts turning into ecological problems. Healthcare Innovation: States are using Rural Health Transformation dollars to back rural health startups, blending federal funding with a Silicon Valley-style push for tech-driven care. Business & Compliance: A federal appeals court ruled the DOE overstepped emergency powers to keep a Michigan coal plant running, narrowing how broadly the government can extend fossil operations. Local Community: The Tygart Valley United Way’s Day of Action drew 260+ volunteers for dozens of regional projects.
