IHS Markit Report: Advancing the Landscape of Clean Energy Innovation
This document summarizes a report on advancing clean energy innovation in the United States. It discusses the roles of the private sector, federal government, and technologies with breakthrough potential in clean energy innovation. Key recommendations include that the private sector and strategic philanthropic investors should support promising early stage technologies, federal funding for energy research should focus on a portfolio of technologies with high potential, and the Department of Energy's structure could be optimized to prioritize innovation over specific fuels.
Risk assessment
California is requiring 50% of electricity to come from renewable sources by 2030 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address climate change. This is increasing the need for battery storage to ensure grid reliability as more intermittent renewable energy is added. Many new battery technologies are being deployed, but regulations have not caught up, requiring safety risk assessments of these technologies. Hazard analyses should be conducted throughout the lifecycle of battery storage projects to identify and mitigate risks, improving safety and reducing incidents. These analyses require a multidisciplinary team and are a valuable tool for the safe operation of emerging battery technologies.

Arizona Solar Jobs Census 2013
The solar industry in Arizona saw significant job losses in 2013, declining by over 1,200 workers and 12.7% from the previous year. This is attributed to the completion of large solar projects that drove hiring in prior years. While total solar capacity installed was similar year-over-year, the residential market segment grew more slowly at 13% compared to nearly 94% the prior year. Over a third of Arizona solar employers expect to add jobs in the coming year, but overall employment is projected to grow by only 475 jobs or 5.6% with continued policy uncertainty in the state. The solar workforce in Arizona currently stands at 8,558 workers, down from 9,800 in 2012, with the vast majority employed in installation
National Solar Jobs Census 2014
The Solar Foundation's National Solar Jobs Census 2014 found that the U.S. solar industry employs 173,807 workers, a growth of 21.8% since 2013. Solar employment grew nearly 20 times faster than the overall economy and accounted for 1.3% of new U.S. jobs over the past year. The installation sector remains the largest, more than doubling in size since 2010. If growth continues, the Census predicts 210,060 solar workers within a year, driven by increasing demand before tax credits expire in 2017.

Estimates found ranged from 11.7-28% improvement by 2010-2030 depending on the source and geography. The search highlighted the complexity of the question and issues with search syntax and jargon across different sources.
Financing the Next Generation of Solar Workers
This document explores sustainable funding models for solar workforce training programs as public funding decreases. It notes rapid growth in the solar industry and jobs, but limited and declining public funding for associated training. It proposes three new funding concepts: 1) Public-private partnerships to jointly fund training; 2) Revolving loan funds for trainees that are repaid after employment; and 3) Crowdsourcing training funding from industry. The document aims to facilitate a transition from public to private funding that maximizes efficient allocation of funds to training providers.
Federal Energy Incentives Fact Sheet
This fact sheet highlights some statistics from a report by the University of Tennessee Howard H. Baker Center for Public Policy on federal energy incentives. The report shows that federal support for solar energy is consistent with support for traditional energy sources.
California Solar Jobs Census 2013
The document summarizes a report on solar jobs in California in 2013. It finds that California had 47,223 solar workers as of November 2013, concentrated in the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California. Solar employers in California expect to add 10,500 new solar jobs, a growth rate of 22.3%, by November 2014. California has been a leader in solar energy and jobs due to its renewable energy policies like renewable portfolio standards and solar rebate programs, which have led to over 10,000 MW of installed solar capacity, over 40% of the US total.
PEW Clean Energy Program
The Pew Clean Energy Program aims to accelerate the clean energy economy over the next five years. It promotes policy changes in four sectors: industry, utilities, transportation, and research and development. The program's goals are to generate jobs, businesses and investments while expanding clean energy production and reducing emissions. Combined heat and power (CHP) is an efficient clean energy technology that generates electricity and thermal power from a single fuel source. Doubling CHP in the US could create 1 million jobs, save $234 billion, and reduce total energy use by 3%. The program encourages businesses to support policies that incentivize CHP and other industrial efficiency technologies.
Offshore Wind: Balancing efficiency and accountability
The document discusses the idea of creating an Inland Seas Energy Authority (ISEA) to manage offshore wind energy development in the Great Lakes. The ISEA would identify the most suitable 2,000 square miles for offshore wind farms and set production goals. It would provide guidelines for site assessment, construction and decommissioning. The ISEA would partner with states, issue bonds, and sell assets after 20-25 years. Its creation would provide regulatory certainty and help attract investors to develop offshore wind at a large enough scale to be economically viable. Next steps proposed include convening stakeholder leaders to further discuss and begin planning the formation of an ISEA organization.

States awaiting stimulus funds will be pleased to know that when it comes to funding energy efficiency programs, their dollars will go far. Drastically reduced energy consumption and immediate job growth are just some of the benefits that effective policies and programs can bring, particularly to the Appalachian region, which has the highest energy consumption in the country. Kateri Callahan presented these findings to the annual Charlotte Regional Partnership Investors Board in Charlotte, N.C., where already progressive energy efficiency policies and programs are taking root. Callahan also briefed the audience of investors and board members on the climate and energy bills moving through Congress.Energy Efficiency – Good for the World’s Economy; Good for the Nation’s Econo...
