Community Participation
We work alongside trusted local institutions — from farm bureaus to chambers of commerce — to foster meaningful relationships that anchor our projects in community priorities. These partners help us identify shared goals, connect with local voices, and host forums where questions can be asked and answered honestly. As our projects progress, we give back through grants, scholarships, and public benefit initiatives that reflect the community’s own vision for progress.
Workforce Development
We believe clean energy projects should open doors — not just for new technology, but for new careers. Callaway invests in local workforce development by partnering with high schools, community colleges, and regional nonprofits to build a skilled energy workforce from the ground up. Whether it’s a solar array in Indiana or a BESS site in Illinois, we work hard to create training and hiring pipelines that benefit the communities where we operate.
Local Engagement
Our outreach is always rooted in trust. We team up with community leaders and local advocates to ensure that every household understands the purpose, benefits, and logistics of a Callaway project. We provide clear, jargon-free information — whether we’re meeting at a town hall or connecting on social media. Our local partners help us speak with credibility, ensuring residents feel informed, included, and respected.
Engage Authentically
Community trust is not assumed — it’s earned. We invest early in education, dialogue, and outreach to ensure local voices are heard and that support is built from the ground up.
“We don’t just show up with a project plan — we show up with humility and a willingness to listen. That’s how trust is built.”
