Allegany Ballistics Laboratory in Mineral County. Agile5 Tech in Mon County. Aurora Flight Sciences in Bridgeport. These West Virginia companies employ more than 10,000 people in the state and power more than $1 billion in annual U.S. defense contracts. And a retired Army Major General says our aging electric grid is putting all of it at risk.

Unreliable power doesn't just inconvenience manufacturers. It disrupts military supply chains, ruins sensitive materials, and weakens national readiness.

The fix starts with modernizing WV's transmission infrastructure. Here's why Maj. Gen. William Crane (Ret.) says it matters.

"National security doesn’t begin at the Pentagon. It begins at the factories and power lines that keep America’s defense industry running. It begins right here in West Virginia." #NationalSecurity #NationalDefense #WestVirginia

Our electric grid was built for this era. Times have changed. Our grid hasn't kept up.

[PowerWVNow @PowerWVNow]

West Virginia's power grid is 50 years old.

The average WV home now uses 2–3x more electricity than it did when that grid was built.

The math stopped working a long time ago. And now our grid isn’t working.

Most West Virginia families lost power at least once last year.

Many lost it 3, 4, or more times.

That's not just bad luck. That's what happens when aging infrastructure meets growing demand.

National Small Business Week reality: No power = no revenue.

Outages don’t just inconvenience small businesses; they cost them.

“With each new jobs report, we are seeing a clearer picture of where West Virginia stands and where we risk falling behind. Economic growth doesn’t happen by accident. It is the result of policy decisions that either encourage investment and job creation or make it more difficult for businesses to grow and hire.” - Steve Roberts, President of the @WVaChamber

@DavidGille81076 You're right - the power shouldn't go out as often as it does. Tell your elected officials to do something about it, and fix the grid: https://t.co/ZXfUkdatBZ

Our aging electric grid is threat to national security. A year ago President Trump declared a national energy emergency and again this month highlighted the threat of a weak grid to America in time of war or economic disruption.
