We are stronger when we speak with a unified voice.

ACP is the leading voice of more than 800 companies from across the clean power sector that are committed to meeting America’s national security, economic and climate goals with fast-growing, low-cost, and reliable domestic power.

Renewable energy is operating at scale today and is expected to grow by 300% in the U.S. and by 500% globally in the next 30 years.

Many of our businesses are invested across the sector—storage, wind, solar, green hydrogen and transmission —a trend we expect will continue.

Bottom line, the renewable industry has evolved significantly, and it’s only natural that our trade associations should evolve with us. By uniting the power of the renewable energy industry, we are providing our members a higher ROI while fighting harder to make clean energy the leading source of power in the United States.

ACP Board Chair

“Joining ACP as a founding member was an easy decision for our team. Renewable energy is a mainstream and mature source of American electric power. Clearly, we needed a united trade association to represent the breadth and depth of our industry. If we are to deliver a grid that is predominately powered by clean, reliable, and affordable renewable power, then we must continue to advocate as one cohesive group working together and playing off each other’s strengths.”
