At Puget Sound Solar, we’ve always believed that the future of energy is clean, local, and accessible to all. But building that future requires more than just panels and inverters—it takes skilled, passionate workers ready to power the clean energy revolution. That’s why we’re thrilled to participate in King County’s JumpStart program, a groundbreaking new apprenticeship initiative designed to prepare Washington’s workforce for the green jobs of tomorrow.

Investing in the Future of Clean Energy Jobs

King County’s JumpStart program, highlighted in a recent King 5 news segment, is an innovative paid apprenticeship program that connects workers—especially those from underrepresented backgrounds—with hands-on training in solar, EV charging, energy efficiency, and more. With Washington State leading the charge in climate policy and clean energy adoption, this program couldn’t come at a better time.
By participating in JumpStart, Puget Sound Solar is helping develop the next generation of solar installers, electricians, and clean energy professionals—giving them the tools and experience needed to build long-term careers in this fast-growing field.
With utility rates rising and net metering policies in flux, waiting to go solar could cost you. Don’t miss out on your chance to take control of your energy costs.

Why This Matters

Expanding the Clean Energy Workforce – The demand for solar and electrification is skyrocketing, and we need more skilled workers ready to meet that demand. JumpStart is creating a pipeline of talent that will help accelerate Washington’s transition to clean energy.
Opening Doors to New Opportunities – This program is a game-changer for people looking to enter the clean energy sector, particularly those from communities that have historically faced barriers to high-paying, stable jobs in the trades.
Growing a Sustainable Future Together – Puget Sound Solar is proud to be part of a program that aligns with our core mission: making clean energy accessible, equitable, and impactful for our community.

Ready to Make an Impact?

Whether you’re a job seeker eager to start a career in clean energy or a homeowner interested in going solar, this program benefits everyone. By expanding the workforce, we’re ensuring that solar and electrification solutions remain accessible and affordable for more Washingtonians.
We can’t wait to welcome JumpStart apprentices to our team, helping them build skills that will power our state’s clean energy future—one installation at a time.
