Gov. Patrick Morrisey has a plan for improving West Virginia’s economy centering around more than tripling West Virginia’s electric production by mid-century. The governor declares West Virginia will become a key player in power for artificial intelligence and data centers by using coal, gas and nuclear power. Addressing the Chamber of Commerce at the Greenbrier Hotel, Morrisey said “We’re leading the way in terms of energy resources and that’s going to be a big part of what we’re trying to achieve,” Morrisey said cutting red tape and using the state’s power plants to cash in on expected demands of data storage and artificial intelligence will hit what he calls 50-by-50.
