The global economic impact of the Tennessee Valley region has never been more evident, as national and international companies and emerging industries are flourishing here. As the region’s energy supplier, the Tennessee Valley Authority is partnering with local, regional, and state leaders to attract these industries. Through these efforts, we are helping to fuel billions in economic investment taking place in our communities. While affordable, reliable, and clean energy attracts new business and industry, TVA continues to work to ensure we meet the needs of our existing customers and prepare for future development — providing energy that is expandable, sustainable and innovative. TVA’s investments will power this region in building on its economic success, attracting and retaining the jobs of the future, and helping organizations meet their clean energy goals in the next decades. These investments also will assist in cementing the Tennessee Valley region as the home of global growth industries from new nuclear generation to advanced manufacturing to electric vehicle production. Join us to learn more about how the Tennessee Valley region and TVA are partnering to deliver the energy for global leadership.
