About Us

“In Kalama Washington we are investing over 2 billion in an innovative clean technology that will both create family wage jobs and reduce global greenhouse gasses. Climate change is real; while no single enterprise can solve every aspect, we are determined to do our part.”
-Simon Zhang, CEO

Creating Jobs

"This is exactly what our community needs to prove that we can do better. We can tackle climate change, protect our river, and create family-wage jobs all at the same time.” Mike Bridges, President of the Longview/Kelso Building and Construction Trades Council

Confronting Climate Change

“In fact, according to the analysis, not building the facility would be far worse from a global warming standpoint than building it.” – The Longview Daily News Editorial Board, Dec. 16, 2018

Setting New Standards

"We can't beat climate change by accepting the status quo. We need to drive new standards by surpassing current best practices. NWIW is voluntarily offsetting 100% of project related in state greenhouse gas emissions and is displacing even more emissions globally, using zero liquid discharge technology to safeguard our waters and using ultra-low emissions technology to protect our air," Kent Caputo, Chief Commercial Officer and General Counsel.
