Clean Energy Careers NY is a collaborative initiative to create equitable clean energy careers pathways in New York to achieve the state’s climate and clean energy goals. Through regional events, we’re bringing key stakeholders together to strategize and implement solutions for scaling up climate and clean energy education, workforce training, and job placement.
The summits will convene clean energy developers, contractors, educational and training institutions representatives, labor leaders, CBOs specializing in workforce development and wraparound services, renewable energy advocates, state agencies, local governments, and elected officials. In addition to inspiring keynote speakers, panel discussions, and breakout sessions, there will be a career fair and networking reception for job seekers from the region, especially targeting young people, women, and individuals from historically disadvantaged communities and communities of color, previously incarcerated individuals, and veterans. Similar to the successful Climate Solutions Summits that New Yorkers for Clean Power convened prior to the COVID-19 Pandemic with partners in Western NY, Central NY, and the Hudson Valley, the Clean Energy Careers Summits will bring key stakeholders together to advance shared goals, solve problems and build the movement for climate and clean energy solutions.
