STEM to Hydropower Portal +  STEM to Marine Energy Portal

In July, as part of an effort to recruit the best and brightest to the water power workforce, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), partnering with the Hydropower Foundation, launched two Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) workforce development and education portals for water power technologies.

Explore what the future might hold for you with a career in water power.

Hydropower energy technologies play an important role in the growing renewable energy industry, but there are not enough workers to fill open jobs in the industry. To continue to spur innovation and growth in these exciting technology areas, the industry needs to inspire the next generation of hydropower energy workers.

Marine energy technologies play an important role in the growing renewable energy industry, but there are not enough workers to fill open jobs in the industry. To continue to spur innovation and growth in these exciting technology areas, the industry needs to inspire the next generation of marine energy workers.
