Grant Overview
Wyoming's energy education landscape is characterized by a strong focus on fossil fuels, with 85% of the state's electricity generated from coal and natural gas. However, the state is also home to significant renewable energy resources, including wind and solar. The Energy Education program aims to prepare Wyoming students for careers in the energy sector, with a focus on renewable energy sources. Wyoming's rural geography and sparse population require a unique approach to energy education, with a focus on hands-on learning experiences and real-world applications. Unlike neighboring Colorado, Wyoming's energy education program prioritizes the development of practical skills, such as those required for wind turbine maintenance. How Will Wyoming Implement Energy Education? The program will be delivered through partnerships with local schools, community colleges, and industry stakeholders. Applications require a detailed plan for program delivery, including a clear assessment of workforce needs and a description of hands-on learning experiences. Wyoming's energy education program will focus on developing the skills needed to support the state's transition to renewable energy, while also acknowledging the ongoing importance of fossil fuels to the state's economy. The state's energy industry is a significant employer, with 12% of the workforce directly or indirectly employed in energy-related jobs. By supporting energy education initiatives, Wyoming can ensure a skilled workforce for the future. Wyoming's frontier counties, such as those in the Big Horn Basin, will benefit from targeted investments in energy education and workforce development. The program's success will be measured by the number of students enrolled, the number of industry partnerships established, and the overall improvement in energy-related skills across the state.
