Hub report integral to $83.7 billion China Energy investment in West Virginia

An agreement with China Energy Investment Corp. Ltd., a longtime research and development partner of WVU,  was signed Thursday (Nov. 9).

WVU will work closely with the state Department of Commerce and other state officials to help coordinate the investment, with funding focused on developing an Appalachia Storage and Trading Hub, itself a key piece of reinvigorating the state’s and region’s petrochemical industry.
