Port of Benton wins $500,000!



Out of a field of competitive applicants, the Port of Benton has been selected to participate in the State of Washington’s “Innovation Cluster Accelerator Program” (ICAP)!


The Chamber of Commerce’s multi-year innovation cluster development program is designed to help promising industry sectors assemble the ingredients they need to grow, including access to capital, the latest research and support for entrepreneurs.


The Port’s project, Washington VERTical, will establish Washington as a predominant leader in the renewable energy industry by building on the region’s energy expertise. By fostering collaboration between area partners— including the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hanford Site, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and leading energy industry companies—Washington VERTical will empower businesses to solve industry wide challenges and accelerate energy innovation.

Congratulations, Port of Benton!
