WV Gov. Patrick Morrisey
Patrick Morrisey served as the 34th attorney general of West Virginia from 2013 to 2025. Last November, he was elected as the state's 37th governor, assuming office in January. Morrisey has been an unabashed champion for fossil fuels since taking office. He's a visionary, charting out the future of the state's economy. Gov. Morrisey cast a vision for the future of the state last week at the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce Annual Meeting and Business Summit. It includes the state growing its electric energy production from a current 16 gigawatts (GW) of generation to 50 (!) GW by 2050, what he calls the "50 by '50" plan.
