An Act to promote energy and economic resilience through clean energy education and job pathway programs
This bill establishes a clean energy education program within Massachusetts' vocational and technical high schools. It requires electric and gas utilities, along with municipal aggregators, to annually transfer at least $20 million from energy efficiency funds to the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. The funds support workforce training programs in clean energy, renewable energy technology, energy storage, electric vehicles, and manufacturing. This directly affects vocational schools offering these specific training pathways and aims to build local clean energy job skills. The funding must not reduce existing low-income energy assistance programs.
