Empire Diversified Energy’s goal is to develop the largest ESG inland river port terminal in the U.S.A. along with a portfolio of “green” oriented recycling plants, logistics services, and storage facilities at the Port of West Virginia.The Empire Riverfront Industrial Complex consists of 900 acres and includes nearly 8,000 feet of river frontage with barge fleeting, five miles of company-owned rail, and highway access in Follansbee, W.Va. Strategically located to serve the Midwestern U.S.
The Port of West Virginia offers a variety of logistical solutions that are centered around the site's trimodal access and storage capabilities. Whether by road, river, or rail, goods can be moved throughout the Midwestern U.S. all via one convenient access point on the Ohio River. Additionally, The Port of West Virginia aims to become the largest green inland port in the U.S. This will give businesses a chance to drastically reduce the environmental impact of their supply chain and join the movement towards a sustainable future. On the Port site will be several amenities that will help customers reach their ESG goals. Among these amenities are behind-the-grid utilities like clean electricity from plastic pyrolysis and renewable natural gas and hydrogen fuels for transportation vehicles and equipment.
