The EAP internship with RENEW played an important role in launching Lauren Reeg’s career in clean energy. Lauren graduated in 2021 with a master’s degree from the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies and a certificate in Energy Analysis & Policy and now works for the Rocky Mountain Institute as a Carbon-Free Buildings Associate.
“The RENEW staff gave me the trust and mentorship I needed to become a strong clean energy policy advocate. I was able to grow my utility regulation knowledge, energy education skills, and Midwest clean energy network. Thank you, RENEW WI, for being my strong stepping stone into the clean energy industry.”
Past RENEW interns from the EAP program have gone on to work in leading clean energy organizations such as Clearway Energy Group, OneEnergy Renewables, and the Rocky Mountain Institute. When this internship is open for applications, instructions on how to apply will be listed on this page.
