From our partners at the Illinois Power Agency and the Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition:
The Illinois Power Agency (IPA) is offering a series of educational and informative webinars to discuss how the recently enacted Climate Equitable Jobs Act (“CEJA”) revises and expands the Illinois Renewable Portfolio Standard, including strengthening equity, diversity, and labor standards for IPA-administered incentive programs to build a stronger, more diverse and equitable clean energy workforce. After this initial series is completed the IPA will be offering future Power Hour Webinars on other topical areas. The Power Hour Webinar Series will be recorded and available on the Agency’s website.
IPA Power Hour Webinars are 60 minutes long from 12pm-1pm CDT. Registration is required. After you register, you’ll receive a confirmation email with information on how to join the webinar. Remaining Power Hours include:
