项目摘要

Most of the current energy infrastructure in the U.S. was built in the five decades from the 1920s to the late 1970s. The U.S. is now faced with the challenge of replacing this aging and soon to be obsolete infrastructure, while a tremendous opportunity exists globally to create new sustainable industries and economies through renewable energy, energy storage, energy efficiency and other advanced, smart, and clean energy technologies. More than 80% of all new electrical generation added in 2020 was from renewable energy sources, largely in the form of wind and solar power led in large part by three of the world’s largest economies: China, Germany, and the U.S. This project will address the rapidly changing energy landscape to develop and promote exemplary programs in support of the education of a skilled technical workforce for the American energy sector. The CREATE National Energy Center proposes to become the preeminent source of faculty professional development and instructional materials for energy educators, increase the visibility of energy careers and broaden participation of groups historically underrepresented in these careers, and build academic, industry, and international partnerships to advance energy technician education. The CREATE Center will empower two-year college faculty and academic programs to champion new energy technologies to ensure American competitiveness in this fast-changing sector. The Center will: provide models and leadership in support of two-year colleges working with four-year universities, secondary schools, business, industry, economic development agencies, and government to promote a skilled technical workforce for the energy sector; establish an effective dialogue and collaborations between existing and new ATE projects in energy technology and related fields across the nation; mentor faculty to broaden the impact of ATE in the energy sector; promote energy technician careers and visibility and the public image of advanced energy technology; address energy technician knowledge, skills, and competencies needed for the evolving, converging, and emerging technical workplace including re- and up-skilling of the incumbent workforce; and provide faculty professional development opportunities in advanced energy technology and areas of rapid growth. This project is funded by the Advanced Technological Education program that focuses on the education of technicians for the advanced-technology fields that drive the Nation's economy.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

美国目前的大部分能源基础设施都是在20世纪20年代至70年代末的50年内建造的。美国现在面临着更换这些老化和即将过时的基础设施的挑战，而全球存在着通过可再生能源，能源储存，能源效率和其他先进，智能和清洁能源技术创造新的可持续产业和经济的巨大机会。2020年新增发电量的80%以上来自可再生能源，主要是风能和太阳能发电，主要由世界上三个最大的经济体领导：中国、德国、该项目将针对迅速变化的能源格局，制定和推广示范性计划，支持美国能源技术熟练劳动力的教育。部门该创建国家能源中心建议成为教师专业发展和能源教育工作者的教学材料的卓越来源，提高能源职业的知名度，扩大历史上在这些职业中代表性不足的群体的参与，并建立学术，行业和国际合作伙伴关系，以推进能源技术人员教育。CREATE中心将授权两年制大学教师和学术课程支持新能源技术，以确保美国在这个快速变化的行业中的竞争力。该中心将：提供模式和领导力，支持两年制学院与四年制大学，中学，商业，工业，经济发展机构和政府合作，促进能源部门的熟练技术劳动力;在全国能源技术和相关领域的现有和新ATE项目之间建立有效的对话和合作;指导教师扩大ATE在能源领域的影响;促进能源技术人员的职业生涯和知名度以及先进能源技术的公众形象;解决能源技术人员的知识，技能和能力所需的发展，融合，和新兴的技术工作场所，包括重新和在职劳动力的技能提高;并提供教师在先进的能源技术和快速增长的领域的专业发展机会。该项目由先进技术教育计划资助，该计划侧重于推动国家经济的先进技术领域的技术人员的教育。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
