American Clean Power

Join American Clean Power

ACP unites the power, resources, and people across America’s clean energy industries: energy storage, land-based wind, offshore wind, utility solar, clean hydrogen, and transmission. We collaborate closely with our members to address their specific needs and equip them with the tools needed for growth and expansion in the U.S. market. Learn about member benefits below.

We're stronger when we speak with a unified voice.

ACP is the voice of over 800 companies across the clean power sector, meeting America’s national security, economic and climate goals with fast-growing, low-cost, and reliable domestic power.

Clean energy is operating at scale today, with U.S. projections indicating over 200% growth by 2032.

Many businesses are invested across sectors—storage, wind, solar, clean hydrogen and transmission—a trend we expect will continue.

By uniting the power of the clean energy industries and associated players, we provide our members a higher ROI while fighting hard to make clean energy the leading source of power in the United States.

Chief Client Officer, HASI
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.”

President & Co-Founder, Invenergy
Immediate Past ACP Board Chair

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.”
