Grant Overview
Utah Clean Energy Training Outcome Targets
Utah's renewable energy sector, concentrated in solar and wind projects along the Wasatch Front and in rural Beaver and Millard counties, projects 8,200 new installation and maintenance positions by 2027 according to state energy office forecasts. Existing workforce programs produce fewer than 1,200 certified graduates annually, creating a measurable placement gap.
Individuals in carbon-dependent communities in eastern Utah and southern border counties experience the sharpest transition pressures as coal plant retirements accelerate. These areas show lower rates of associate degree attainment in technical fields compared to Salt Lake and Utah counties.
The funding ties awards to verified job placement rates within 12 months of training completion, using Utah Department of Workforce Services wage records for outcome verification. Programs must align curricula with skill requirements documented by active solar and wind developers operating in specific Utah resource zones.
Utah differs from Colorado and Nevada by requiring placement tracking limited to in-state renewable employers rather than regional labor markets.
Utah Outcome Measurement Standards
Grantees submit quarterly placement and wage data disaggregated by county of residence and prior employment sector. Awards include clawback provisions if placement rates fall below 65 percent in targeted occupations.
Utah Training Delivery Constraints
Projects must locate at least 40 percent of training capacity in non-metropolitan counties and coordinate with existing technical colleges to avoid duplication of equipment already funded through state capital budgets. Broadband-dependent online modules require documented access verification for rural participants.
