CP is key to solar.

Many scientists and engineers in America are immigrants. People who were born in another country make up nearly one-fourth of all STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) workers in the U.S.3
While the national solar industry is booming, America is still behind China and European countries in the race toward clean energy.4
The U.S. needs roughly 650,000 more solar workers to meet the 2035 clean energy and climate change goals set by President Biden.5 But clean energy employers say they struggle to expand due to a lack of skilled, qualified workers.6
This gap presents opportunities for immigrants to utilize their talents and skills in the country’s growing renewable energy sector.
