It seems like every week there is a new ribbon cutting for an EV manufacturing plant, renewable-powered data center, or solar development. But how do cities and counties win bids with site selectors? What role can chambers of commerce and economic development organizations play? What skills are essential, and how many jobs are being created?

Over the past three years, clean energy jobs surged 14%, reaching nearly 3.5 million workers. No chamber or economic development team wants to miss out on the growing opportunities in the clean energy and advanced manufacturing sectors. A critical factor in attracting new employers is ensuring your region has a workforce equipped with the right skills.
