Investing in America: The Power of Western Winds centers on Carbon County, Wyoming, a historic coal community that is building one of the largest wind farms and transmission systems in the United States. These projects will create over 1,500 jobs for union workers.
In June 2023, U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm and U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland visited Carbon County to celebrate the groundbreaking of the TransWest Express Transmission Project, which will carry clean energy from the Chokecherry and Sierra Madre Wind Energy Project across the American West.
Western Winds of Change is the latest video in DOE’s new clean energy jobs series. It follows three more videos highlighting workers across the United States.
