The Alaska Wind Working Group (AKWWG) is an initiative originally established in the early 2000s to enhance and expand wind energy systems across Alaska. The core mission of the working group is to serve as a platform for information sharing and collaboration between state and federal interests, non-profit organizations, utilities, and individuals interested in addressing the challenges and opportunities related to wind development in the state. AKWWG convenes on a quarterly basis to discuss various aspects of wind energy including policy, technology, project updates, and operational practices.
Through the working group, AEA aims to identify viable wind energy resources for potential development and support research and development efforts for both rural and Railbelt wind projects. Additionally, AEA seeks to facilitate the broader integration of renewable energy sources to meet Alaska’s unique energy needs.
