The Clean Energy Council welcomes the development of the Renewable Energy Workforce Plan, and the vision of securing the workforce required to achieve legislated emissions targets and creating legacy employment for host communities.
The Pillars and outcomes of the Plan accurately reflect the workforce challenges and opportunities facing the clean energy transition. We recommend that the Department consider partnering with the Clean Energy Council to extend and amplify existing programs of work relevant to the outcomes across the Awareness, Mobility, Equity and Support pillars.
These programs include Careers For Net Zero, Clean Energy Required Training projects currently being run in Victoria and Queensland, our Women in Renewables program, and the Grid Connection Engineer Graduate Program.
