Greenview Solar and Wind

Rising out of founder Michael Hawthorne's dreams for an entirely renewable-power nation, Greenview has become a regional titan in the energy industry, with operations in solar, wind, and hydro plants.

Soldotna World Energy

Based in Vesuvius but with operations throughout the region, Soldotna is a major supplier of nuclear energy solutions, owning the majority of the six Vancouvian nuclear plants. Soldotna is heavily subsidized by the Vancouvian government and is actively involved in the research of more efficient means of producing nuclear energy. Soldnota was acquired by Oster Consortium for Energy Solutions in late 2016, with the Vancouvian government now maintaining only a 20% interest.

An offshore oil and natural gas company, Narwhalia was forced to lay off over half its workforce following the exhaustion of oil supplies off Independence Island in late 2016. It was entirely acquired by Soldotna Energy in June 2018.
