Clean energy: Labor and Workforce Development Agency: Deputy Secretary for Climate.

Abstract

Existing law, the California Clean Energy Jobs Act, expresses a goal of creating good-paying energy efficiency and clean energy jobs in California. Existing law also expresses the state's policy that eligible renewable energy resources and zero-carbon resources supply 100% of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers and 100% of electricity procured to serve all state agencies by December 31, 2045. Existing law establishes in state government the Labor and Workforce Development Agency, under the supervision of the Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development, which consists of the Office of the Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development and the California Workforce Development Board, among others. This bill, upon appropriation by the Legislature, would establish the position of Deputy Secretary for Climate within the Labor and Workforce Development Agency, to be appointed by the Governor and subject to confirmation by the Senate, for the purpose of assisting in the oversight of California's workforce transition to a sustainable and equitable carbon neutral economy. This bill would require the deputy secretary to coordinate with relevant state agencies to track the progress of the state moving toward 100% clean energy, as defined, and create or coordinate programs with other state agencies to retrain and upskill workers for clean energy jobs and jobs in related fields. The bill would make the operation of the act contingent upon an appropriation by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act or another statute for its purposes. The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2046.
