Who We Are

Our Story

ACP is the premier association representing the American clean power industry. With unrivaled scale, resources, and political reach, ACP works to set the agenda, influence policy, and shape the future of American energy.

In 2021, a small group of clean energy industry leaders came together because they saw a need that wasn’t being met in the trade association space. Today, ACP represents over 85% of utility scale clean energy deployments across the entire ecosystem: from planning, building, and putting electrons on the grid.

Testimonials

From our Members

Jim Murphy

President & Co-Founder, Invenergy, ACP Board Member

“Clean power and renewable energy sources are the future. Becoming a founding member of ACP for us meant committing to the world that we’re in this together. By concentrating our effort and resources on a larger, multi-technology association, we can advocate with one voice what we’ve known all along: clean energy is safe, reliable and affordable.”

Susan Nickey

Chief Client Officer, HASI ACP Board Member

“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.”
