CETI worked on a project with Kinetic West, BW Research Partnership, and Uncommon Bridges to conduct a residential energy workforce gap analysis for a contract with the Washington State Department of Commerce.
The study includes a landscape analysis of current and projected energy workforce needs; mapping existing workforce pathways, with a focus on outcomes for people historically underrepresented within these jobs; and meaningful engagement with people developing workforce strategies.
The report includes recommendations for how Commerce might prepare Washington’s workforce to make residential building improvements to meet the state’s emissions goals. This work will also inform the design and implementation of the home energy rebates that Commerce aims to make available in early 2025.
