What it does
The Clean Energy Workforce Act would authorize $100 million in grants to develop and expand career and technical education programs focused on renewable energy, energy efficiency, and related fields, with priority given to programs serving low-performing students and special populations. It would also fund grants to improve the energy efficiency and renewable energy use of educational facilities, including purchasing energy-efficient equipment and sharing best practices. Eligible recipients include partnerships between local educational agencies, postsecondary institutions, and community representatives such as business owners and labor organizations. The bill emphasizes replicable programs, applied learning, and student placement in non-traditional clean energy careers. A peer review committee of educators and industry experts would evaluate grant applications.
