The seismic growth of the solar power and renewable energy sector creates widespread opportunity for a collective response.

Shine On is our vision for that response – a vision for putting bright thinking and bright action to work, so benefits of the renewable energy economy will shine on everyone.

Our Shine On® program recognizes the crucial opportunity now at hand to spread the benefits of clean energy investments across communities. Through Shine On®, we are constantly working to train and develop the workforce needed to successfully decarbonize our nation’s energy sector. Shine On® is our platform for the “New Collar Workforce,” an agenda to recruit and train skilled workers so that they can re-imagine their strengths and find new, rewarding careers in the burgeoning renewable energy field.

We started Shine On® because we firmly believed in the potential of the renewable energy transition to create thousands of well-paying and morally fulfilling careers.
