Illinois is making significant strides in the clean energy sector, exemplified by collaborations between companies like Invenergy and the Chicago Cubs. Invenergy, a global developer of clean energy solutions, has become the 'Official Solar Provider' of the Cubs and Wrigley Field, showcasing the tangible impact of green energy in iconic locations like Chicago's North Side. The company is also investing in a $30 million Center of Excellence in Bolingbrook, furthering its commitment to clean energy training and manufacturing. Moreover, the state has attracted other clean energy firms like Nexamp, which announced Chicago as its second national headquarters, anticipating the addition of 50 team members and over $2 billion in investments in Illinois. This growth is supported by state policies like the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act, spearheaded by Governor Pritzker. In October 2023, the Chicagoland Climate Investment Alliance and the Midwest Alliance for Clean Hydrogen (MachH2) were established, highlighting Illinois' role in promoting environmental sustainability and workforce development in the clean energy industry. MachH2, in particular, aims to create thousands of jobs through the development of a Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub. Additionally, Illinois is a hub for sustainable aviation fuels, with companies like LanzaJet receiving significant investments and establishing commercial-scale plants in the state. Supportive policies, such as purchase credits for SAF until 2033, further demonstrate Illinois' commitment to advancing clean energy solutions and promoting a diverse, equitable workforce in the renewable energy field.
