POTENTIAL WORKFORCE IN LA & OC
Pyrolysis and Gasification uses combustible gases in the absence or slight presence of air and oxygen
Anaerobic Digestion - Implementation difficult due to costs and emissions controls. There are no incentive programs for anaerobic digestion of MSW
Landfill Gas to Energy - Possible penalties from vinyl chloride contamination from California landfill gas – not applicable to out of state gas.
CHALLENGES: REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS
Current renewable “closed-loop” technologies are still being developed
Advanced technologies require process-specific feedstock
WTE start-ups may deplete funding prior to realizing profits
CHALLENGES: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES
Renewable and mass burn facilities directly employ 59, mostly “low” skill occupations requiring only OJT—which is a role WIBs can help play
Developers of advanced technologies are well-educated and experienced professionals
Lower skilled labor is not required until a project reaches functionality

EMPLOYMENT IN CA, LA, OC
TESLA MOTORS: GIGA-FACTORY
UTILITY COMPANIES ROLE
The US Department of Energy noted that there are four key market barriers:
Cost competitiveness
Validated performance and safety
Equitable regulatory environment
Industry acceptance
Additionally, size, weight, longevity, and efficiency must be improved
MARKET BARRIERS
Public policies are key
AB 2514 (2010)—required CPUC to define grid scale energy storage procurement targets and policies
Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIF) provides performance based incentive payments for up to 60% of project costs
In 2013, the CPUC established a mandate to direct investor-owned utilities to procure 1.3 GW of energy storage capacity by 2020 and for energy storage providers to procure energy storage equal to 1% of their annual 2020 peak load by 2020
CA PUBLIC POLICIES
Forward-thinking
Research and development
Market driven
Business practices
CA STORAGE OPPORTUNITY
Demand will rise as advanced technologies reach mass production & economic efficiency
The market is currently precarious, but will become robust in the future
Diversified companies, such as Panasonic, Samsung, and LG show much promise
Full employment will not be realized until efficiencies in technologies improve

Stakeholder Convening, Approach and ResultsThe RICO Process
Regional Partners – Orange County
Goals:
- Determine key players in Orange County’s alternative
fuel value chain
- Explore regional demand for alternative fuels, including
price competitiveness
- Compare incentives in Orange County with cluster growth strategies in other
regions
Outcomes:
- Over 30 Orange County-based stakeholders identified, including representatives in transportation, manufacturing,
alt fuel advocacy, and venture capital
- 13 projects funded by AB118 are active in Orange County, including fueling infrastructure, EV charging stations, and
UCI research analysis
- Fuel prices in California average 10 to 30 cents more than at the national level for every alternative fuel type –
propane has the smallest differential, while biodiesel has the greatest. This compares to a typical differential of 35
to 45 cents for conventional gasoline and period price spikes of 60 to 60 cents during supply outages, etc

Workforce Opportunities
Orange County Investment Area #2 – Alt. Fuel Workforce
Meeting Outcomes
Certification groups such as the So Cal Regional Transit Training Consortium in Los Angeles are needed to help community colleges provide the best curriculum and practices for intelligent transportation systems, and member schools were stated to be a useful resource for hiring among stakeholders
Workforce Development: CC/Trade Schools are ideal choices for expansion, and pathways at Jr. High and High School are essential in order to support the pipeline. Workforce should include innovators, engineers, technologists, financers, and others –a broad range of backgrounds
Orange County’s community colleges with automobile programs are active, but some courses in alternative fuels are impacted with waitlists. Leaders include Santa Ana College, Saddleback College, Cypress Community College, and Golden West College
