Energy Fellowship

Up to 27 Fellows will be supporting up to 27 public agencies across the Inland Empire (Riverside and San Bernardino Counties in Southern California). Fellows will be serving to support and fill organizational capacity needs in the area of Energy Efficiency, project identification, and energy building identification and benchmarking, climate/energy action planning, outreach of workforce, education & training into the communities, and other sustainability initiatives. These projects will provide fellows the opportunities to utilize their data analysis, project management, and communications.

The I-REN Energy Fellowship will encourage Fellows to support local agencies in “leading by example” by assisting in the identification, design, development, and implementation of various energy efficiency projects in public facilities, and in doing so lead by example and providing that sustainability expertise to the surrounding communities. Additionally, fellows will create relationships with local communities and provide outreach of additional I-REN energy initiatives (trainings, certification/accreditation programs, etc) and resources to the communities that need them most.

Applications are open April 9th - May 22nd.
