18. Building Energy and Water Efficiency Workforce Needs Building auditor/rater Commissioning agent Specialty contractor Envelope specialist Green plumber HVAC technician Home performance contractor Cost estimator
19. Utility Scale Renewable Energy Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) Investor Owned Utilities must procure 20% of their electricity from renewable resources no later than 2010. Municipal utilities are directed to develop a program that achieves the same goals Governor, CEC and CPUC adopted goal of 33% by 2020
20. Renewable Portfolio Standard 33% by 2020 20% by 2010 2007 11.8% 2002 11.0% (RPS begins) 1983 1988 1993 1998 2003 2008 2013 2018 Year
33. Clean Transportation California’s transportation sector >95 percent dependent on a single fuel source: petroleum The state and the nation are extremely vulnerable to petroleum price and supply disruptions Transportation sector is responsible for: approximately 40 percent of statewide GHG emissions, over half of statewide criteria air pollution, and significant degradation of public health and environmental quality
34. Clean Transportation State Goals Increase the use of alternative fuels: 20 percent of on-road transportation fuel use by 2020 30 percent by 2030 significantly increase the efficiency of motor vehicles reduce per capita vehicles miles traveled.
35. Clean Transportation Workforce Needs Fuel feedstock production Alternative and renewable fuel production Alternative and renewable fuel transport Idle management technology High-performance and low-emission vehicle technology Automotive computer systems Mass transit fleet conversion, servicing, and maintenance
36. CEC Workforce Development Activities and Plans Transportation Energy and Water Efficiency Renewable Energy $75 Million in Clean Energy Workforce Training Funding
37. Training Program Development and Delivery Green Building Training Partnerships Clean Energy Training Partnerships Alternative and Renewable Fuel and Vehicle Training Program Greening the Classroom
38. Green Building, Clean Energy and Transportation Training Partnerships Workforce Investment Board or community college led regional partnerships Free training in green building, energy and water efficiency, renewable energy and clean transportation practices/technologies State will fund nearly 30 partnerships
40. CEC-CDE Green Technology Partnership Academy Partnership between State, school district and private industry Grade 10-12 Student takes all their classes in field-related academy Internships in field
42. Summation CA is a leader in clean energy sector Policies and investments will allow us to continue to lead An educated and well-trained workforce is critical to attracting clean energy sector investment We will not achieve any of our clean energy sector goals unless we develop the workforce
ACWA based water facts:Landscaping accounts for about half the water Californians use at home. Showers account for another 18%, while toilets use about 20%. Central Valley residents use up to 300 gallons per person per day, while some Central Coast residents use as little as 50 gallons per day. The Energy Commission will be initiating a appliance standards proceeding in December to fulfill the requirements of AB 1881. The bill requires the Energy Commission, in consultation with the department, to adopt, by regulation, performance standards and labeling requirements for landscape irrigation equipment, including irrigation controllers, moisture sensors, emission devices, and valves to reduce the wasteful, uneconomic, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy or water.
