For its overall leadership in bringing wind capacity to market and expansion of direct purchasing of clean energy by the public and private sectors, Apex Clean Energy was awarded the 2016 Green Power Leadership Award for Green Power Market Development by the Center for Resource Solutions.
The Green Power Market Development Award recognizes individual renewable energy leaders and organizations that have helped increase the demand for clean energy through their actions.
