The energy transition is ultimately a human transition. Why do we pioneer technological, financial, and policy innovations? For people.
Who drives these innovations? People. To truly achieve a just energy transition, we must ensure an inclusive human-centered approach that recognizes that people are at the forefront of trailblazing and refining solutions and experiencing impacts.
That is why RMI established the Energy Transition Academy . The ETA is a global training and workforce development platform for energy leaders to access curated information, resources, and coaching networks. The ETA is designed to respond to the challenges faced by decision makers and practitioners working in the Global South by providing them with a peer community, skills, experience, and shared tools to advance projects, programs, and policies.
During COP26 in Glasgow, Scotland, we organized various side events to learn about and elevate conversations centered on energy leadership and what a human-centric transition looks like. The ETA believes that the climate divide is also a leadership divide and that harnessing workforce development and peer community to empower energy leaders is a critical driver that will advance our shared climate goals.
From the insights gained from speaking with energy practitioners around the world, we’re pleased to announce the launch of the Global Fellowship Program. Our inaugural offering supports utility professionals based in the Caribbean, focusing on building climate and economic resilience through solar-plus-battery storage microgrids.
