Eastern Millwrights Keep Hydroelectric and Wind Industries Buzzing

Legislative Outreach

The UBC is educating elected officials about the vast amount of jobs and economic growth that is at stake via the renewable energy industry. UBC political professionals are working with members of Congress so that initiatives to develop the industry are supported. Many of these programs, such as the production tax credit for wind, solar, geothermal and bioenergy production, have been factors in billions of dollars in investment and significant job creation through administrations of both parties.

The renewable energy industry is expanding at an incredibly rapid pace. In fact, industry analysts believe that solar power generators, alone, will produce most of the energy needed around the world within 50 years.

Potential abounds, from efficient, profitable operations for power producers to clean, sustainable energy for the North American public.

The Eastern Millwright Regional Council (EMRC) has the skilled millwrights to build the facilities, farms, panels, and towers needed to harness these unlimited natural resources. The SSMRC is aggressively working to ensure our millwrights are prepared to help employers leverage opportunities found in the North American energy industry.

Training, industry partnerships, and establishing relationships with key manufacturers gives Eastern Millwrights a competitive advantage on jobsites, and positions our contractors as the best choice for the installation and maintenance of wind turbines and solar heating panels, as well as newer strategies such as small hydro, modern biomass, geothermal and biofuels.

UBC Renewable Energy Committee

We benefit from the work of the UBC Renewable Energy Committee, which facilitates the exchange of information across the United States and Canada in order to stay abreast of legislative, training, and marketing opportunities. The goal is to leverage a diverse group of professionals from both countries to establish a clearinghouse of market conditions and best practices in training for employers and union members. The committee tracks renewable energy initiatives in various stages of development all over North America, as well as issues being debated in state, provincial, and federal legislatures.
