How to Navigate the Map:

- Use the filters on the left sidebar to narrow your results by sector, tags, opportunity type, location format, entry-level status, or posting age.
- The post-age filter is most important as posts older than 30 days will not show if that filter is not selected.
- Click any map pin to view more details about that opportunity.
- If you click a pin and the top right of the info box says 1 of 2 or more , this means there are multiple opportunities in that area. To view all opportunities use the left and right arrows in the info box to navigate to each opportunity. Alternatively, you can zoom in closer to see them individually.
- Click the Legend tab on the top right to see what each map color means.

The State of Clean Jobs in NY
A trained workforce is critical in the transition to a clean energy economy. Before COVID-19, clean energy jobs were growing at a faster rate than any other sector in New York, as the prices of clean technology decreased and the state made clear policy shifts towards renewable sources of energy. The state also committed more than $100 million through 2025 to clean energy workforce development. According to the NYSERDA Clean Energy Industry Report from 2020 (see fact sheet here), New York is home to 148,000 clean energy jobs, which is down from 165,000 clean energy jobs before the pandemic, however the report shows clean energy industries are climbing back to where they were, with 5,000 jobs recovered since the May 2020 economy re-opening. Almost 80% of these jobs belong to the energy efficiency field, which pays higher 7-9.5% than other in-state HVAC or construction jobs.
New Yorkers for Clean Power is excited to build on New York’s clean job pathway with our Clean Power Fellowship! Fellows work to connect individuals to opportunities in energy efficiency and renewable energy as well as expand our outreach and resources on clean energy jobs.
