Energy Square is a 50+ acre energy innovation district in the heart of the St. Louis riverfront established by a public-private partnership of the St. Louis Port Authority, the City of St. Louis and Ashley Energy, containing an existing and developing cluster of energy related industry, which includes large scale energy assets, energy intensive industries, the associated supply chain and a state-of-the-art district energy system. The objective within Energy Square is to provide reliable, redundant, secure, low carbon and low cost energy –promoting indigenous growth, encouraging inward investment and stimulating innovation. Resurgence Infrastructure has partnered with Energy Square to design the project with the inclusion of job quality and equity policies, not only to build much needed public work projects that we all critically rely on, but also to leverage the funds being invested to improve deteriorating infrastructure and ensure that those funds reach disadvantaged communities and lift people out of poverty.
