The use of renewable energy is rapidly expanding and is expected to double by 2050. This projected growth, spurred by the Inflation Reduction Act, will increase the renewable energy labor market.
The Women in Energy (WIE) initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy, Columbia SIPA envisions a world with equal gender representation at every level within the energy sector. Our mission is to elevate women and enhance inclusion within the energy workforce by developing and sharing research, expanding entry into the sector, and supporting professionals.
In order to help facilitate entry into the sector, WIE will host a career panel series to highlight and connect women who have successfully entered and thrived in a specific energy subsector. Our first session will focus on careers in renewables. The panelists will discuss their career trajectories, share advice for students and graduates, and provide information on what skills are required to be successful in their fields.
Panelists:
- Trixie Blair, Vice President, Greenbacker Development Opportunities
- Jennifer Garvey, Head of New York Market Strategy, Ørsted
- Salsabil Salah, Engineer, Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
