American wind power congratulates President-elect Biden on his victory. "We look forward to collaborating with his administration and Congress as we work together to shape a cleaner and more prosperous energy future for America.
The President-elect and his team have laid out an ambitious, comprehensive approach to energy policy that recognizes renewable energy's ability to grow America's economy and create a cleaner environment, while keeping electricity costs low and combating the threat of climate change.
