The Clean Energy Career Pathways Initiative aims to enhance workforce development by promoting STEM education and raising awareness about clean energy professions.
U.S. Department of Energy Invests in Clean Energy Career Development
In a significant move today, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced funding of up to $300,000 each for seven non-profit organizations through its Clean Energy Careers for All (CEC4A) initiative. This program was established to foster programs that generate interest in clean energy job opportunities among students from K–12 and higher education institutions, as well as veterans and formerly incarcerated individuals.
Diverse Opportunities Across Programs
The funded projects encompass various work-based learning approaches including internships, mentorship schemes, career coaching sessions, educational curriculum design, and initiatives aimed at career exploration.
DOEs Susan Hamm stated, “By collaborating with innovative organizations committed to attracting diverse talent into STEM-related fields within energy innovation, we can effectively help build a resilient workforce that supports America’s future energy landscape.”
Highlights of Selected Organizations and Their Initiatives
- California Green Building Council (Los Angeles):This initiative will offer workshops focused on green building careers along with certificate programs and internships specifically catered to high school juniors and seniors.
- EVHybridNoire (Smyrna):The organization plans to enhance its E-Mobility Fellowship Program aimed at underrepresented groups in several educational institutions for training related to Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) and other clean technologies.
- RMI (Boulder):A new certification course is being developed offering leadership training tailored for professionals transitioning into remote or island communities across the Arctic U.S., Pacific territories, Caribbean regions, as well as tribal areas.
- Association of Geological Hydrogen (Austin):This program’s mission is to cultivate a new workforce pipeline focused on GeoH2 in the United States by fostering industry-university-lab collaborations that provide internship opportunities alongside professional mentoring.
- Lousiana Green Corps (New Orleans): The initiative will expand comprehensive vocational training in green construction practices while emphasizing stormwater management solutions along with solar technology applications.
- Alaska Resource Education (Anchorage): This project engages high school participants through an extensive curriculum showcasing Alaska’s natural resources while exploring various clean energy career trajectories available within this sector.
- New Mexico Institute of Mining & Technology: An innovative virtual reality program dedicated towards teaching geothermal energy principles along with strategies surrounding decarbonization technologies enhances education coupled with skill growth initiatives focused on immersive learning formats.
