These projects must include clean energy technical training as well as career preparation, wraparound services, and job placement support to prepare new workers for entry-level clean energy careers. Projects funded under this solicitation are intended to build or expand training infrastructure and capacity to build an equitable and inclusive pipeline of skilled talent for New York’s clean energy labor market.
All training funded under this solicitation must be industry-driven and meet a demonstrated business need. Funding is available for training that advances skills in the following clean energy technology areas: energy efficiency and building electrification; renewable energy; energy storage; smart grid; and electric vehicle charging stations (installation, operation and maintenance).
Energy efficiency and building electrification (EE/BE) are the primary focus of this solicitation with approximately 80 percent of the funding reserved for EE/BE technology areas. In 2025, the New York State Public Service Commission directed NYSERDA to serve as the single program administrator (PA) in workforce development.
The Commission’s EE/BE directives present an overarching theme of NYSERDA’s role as workforce development PA to ensure that training curricula and program designs align with contractor needs and create a pipeline of trainees that can be hired by contractors conducting EE/BE work. Funds are available for eligible initiatives that prepare individuals for entry into clean energy careers.
Eligible activities include the delivery of technical training; equipment purchases for hands-on training or to build out training labs; training of trainers; test and certification fees; internships; career preparation and wraparound services as well as services to place individuals into full-time jobs (including New York State Department of Labor Registered Apprenticeships).
All training funded by NYSERDA must take place in New York State and serve New York State residents.
