The bill aims to establish the "Clean Energy Workforce Act" to allocate funds for the development of clean energy workforce education programs. It authorizes grants for partnerships between educational agencies and postsecondary institutions to create curriculum focused on careers in clean energy fields. Additionally, it provides grants for entities to develop energy-efficient facilities and promote renewable energy practices, emphasizing the importance of energy efficiency and renewable energy in career and technical education. The bill earmarks $100,000,000 for these initiatives, setting up a peer review committee to evaluate grant applications. The bill defines terms related to career and technical education and specifies the covered fields as clean energy, renewable energy, energy efficiency, climate change mitigation, and adaptation.
