Advanced energy employment grew at nearly twice the rate of Texas jobs overall from 2018 to 2019 (4% versus 2%) and employers expected to add another 5% to their headcount in 2020, when surveyed last fall.

Energy Storage is Key for Virginia's Grid Resilience, Meeting Clean Energy Targets, Saving Customers Money ([link removed] )
Virginia AEE submitted comments to the State Corporation Commission related to its docket on energy storage deployment* [Case PUR-2020-00120]. The filing responded to a series of questions posed by the SCC. As Virginia AEE's filing highlights, energy storage has a critical role to play in Virginia's energy transition, driven by the recently enacted Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA). "This is a pivotal moment for the energy storage market in Virginia. At 3.1 gigawatts, the storage targets enacted in the VCEA are some of the most ambitious in the county. It is critical that the Commission establish clear and near-term interim targets that create market certainty and attract the storage industry to invest and grow in Virginia," said Harry Godfrey, Executive Director of Virginia AEE.
