The grant award will support the expansion of the Find Your Power solar training program for Philadelphia youth.<\/p>\n<p>PEA will use the award funding to establish the nation\u2019s first Clean Energy Program of Study for high school students. PEA will work with the School District of Philadelphia to develop a three year curriculum to train students for careers in the clean energy sector. If recognized by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, it will unlock funding for school districts across the state to offer PEA\u2019s curriculum.<\/p>\n<p>The Energy Co-op has been proud to support PEA\u2019s education programs over the past year. Most recently, we hosted a PEA Philadelphia Youth Network high school intern for the summer. While at the Co-op, he was able to gain hands on experience on the business and marketing side of renewable energy. You can read his blog post about training to be a solar installer and his summer experience <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theenergy.coop\/blog\/benefits-of-solar-pyn-perspective\/\">here<\/a>. We look forward to continued collaboration on this and other future projects!<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the award and the program, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.philaenergy.org\/philadelphia-energy-authority-receives-1-25-million-dept-of-energy-award-for-solar-jobs-training\/\">view the announcement on PEA\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philadelphia Energy Authority-led partnership to create nation&#8217;s first three year clean energy training program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8636,"featured_media":1717,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0},"categories":[117],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.10 -
