The clean energy boom is already bringing back made-in-America manufacturing. Last week, Pittsburgh Gateways Corporation hosted an event where The Heinz Endowments and Climate Power brought together three clean manufacturing CEOs, Congresswoman Summer Lee, County Executive Sara Innamorato, and Mayor Ed Gainey at the Energy Innovation Center in Pittsburgh to discuss the growing sector in western Pennsylvania. CorePower Magnetics, Exus Renewables North America, and Vitro Architectural Glass, have deep roots in the region and, thanks to support from the Clean Energy Plan, are exploring new investments and expansions that could lead to over 1,500 new jobs in the coming years. These companies have committed to union labor for construction of their planned facilities and union neutrality on their shop floors.
