The Cool House Working Lunch: Workforce Innovation for the Energy Transition

​Delivering the energy transition will require more than technology—it will require a workforce ready to design, deploy, operate, and scale it. This working lunch brings together leaders from industry, workforce development, and credentialing to explore how talent strategies must evolve for a new era. From AI and digital tools to skills-based hiring, training, and alternative career pathways, the conversation will examine how employers and workforce partners can expand access to opportunity while meeting rapidly changing business needs. Together, participants will explore the partnerships, skills, and pathways needed to build a stronger, more inclusive workforce for the future of energy.

​The energy transition is creating demand for new capabilities at the same time that AI, advanced controls, connected equipment, building automation, and other technologies are changing the nature of work itself. This session will explore how employers, credentialing organizations, educators, and workforce advocates can respond together—aligning business needs with training, hiring, and career pathways that prepare more people to contribute to and benefit from the energy transition.
