Before the COVID-19 pandemic swept the states, California boasted over half a million advanced energy jobs. In just a few months time, the state lost more than 100,000 of those jobs. As policymakers now grapple with plugging a $54 billion budget deficit, keeping local communities afloat, and upholding the state’s marquee policies, the stakes could not be higher. Given uncertainty around any federal stimulus package, AEE is providing California decision makers with recommendations for actions they could take now to move the state to economic recovery, with advanced energy at its center. That’s because advanced energy is a tried-and-true engine of economic growth, in California most of all. Click here to continue reading the blog post>

Live on Tuesday, June 30th at 2pm ET / 11am PT
Across the country and around the world, consumers, municipalities, and private-sector companies are turning to electric vehicles (EVs) as their primary mode of transportation, spurring significant potential for growth in the supply chain for EVs and charging equipment. This webinar will draw on AEE’s recent report, Electric Transportation Supply Chain in Pennsylvania, prepared by BW Research Partnership, which finds a robust supply chain in formation in the state. The report also finds that more than 350 Pennsylvania firms, many of them in industries and geographies that have seen declines in recent years, could transition to serving the supply chain for electric vehicles. As Pennsylvania, like many other states, considers economic recovery strategies following the COVID-19 public health crisis, the opportunity to capitalize on electric transportation growth deserves attention from policymakers. Our panel of industry experts will provide their perspectives on this opportunity for the Keystone State and look at how this could play out in other states.
Panelists:
- Matt Stanberry, Managing Director, Advanced Energy Economy
- Phil Jordan, Vice President, and Principal, BW Research Partnership
- John Vernacchia, Segment Manager, Renewable Energy, North America Sales, Electrical, Eaton
- Prasanna Srinivasan, Manager, Business Development & Marketing, Parker LORD
