Moore Applauds DOE Selection of TerraSpark Energy Campus, Highlights New West Virginia Coal-Fired Power Plant | 2026-06-05 | 2026 | 2026-06 | Republican | House | WV | Riley M. Moore | M001235 | rileymoore.house.gov | rileymoore | https://rileymoore.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. – Congressman Riley M. Moore yesterday applauded President Donald J. Trump and the U.S. Department of Energy's decision to build a new coal-fired power plant in West Virginia’s Second Congressional District. DOE’s selection of the TerraSpark Energy Campus under its Coal-Based Power and Energy Infrastructure initiative will bring nearly 1,000 high-quality jobs to the district and marks a major step toward realizing President Trump’s vision for American energy dominance. The DOE's selection of the TerraSpark project represents a significant milestone for West Virginia and reinforces the state's position as a national leader in energy production. The TerraSpark Energy Campus will leverage West Virginia's abundant coal reserves and next-generation energy technology to provide reliable and affordable electricity and ensure that America’s future is coal-fired. Congressman Moore has been a strong advocate for policies that support American energy production, strengthen the nation's electric grid, and revitalize the coal industry as the cornerstone of U.S. energy security. As electricity demand continues to rise from advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and data center development, projects like TerraSpark will help ensure the United States has the reliable baseload power necessary to remain globally competitive while reducing dependence on foreign energy sources. Congressman Moore continues working with federal, state, and local partners to advance projects that create jobs, strengthen American energy security, and unleash the full potential of West Virginia's energy resources. Congressman Riley M. Moore released the following statement: “I want to thank President Trump for being the first president in my lifetime to prioritize America’s coal industry and recognize the vital role that beautiful, clean coal plays in our nation’s energy future. The TerraSpark Energy Campus, which will bring nearly 1,000 high-quality jobs back to my district, is exactly the kind of energy project that will help unleash our nation’s abundant natural resources and deliver on President Trump’s vision for American energy dominance. TerraSpark will provide affordable, reliable electricity to power America’s industrial resurgence, strengthen our nation’s energy security, drive down energy prices for West Virginians, and sends a message that America’s future is coal-fired.” ### | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:11:26Z |
