SB Energy

As sponsors of the LevelTen Energy Scholars program, members of our team hosted an all-day training for the program participants.    We did a deep dive into #cleanenergy, construction, and engineering, equipping these 16 talented undergraduate students with the knowledge they need to successfully gain employment in the industry. After an engaging day of learning, we took the students sailing on #Seattle’s beautiful Lake Union.    We are proud to support these students who have a passion for learning about the energy industry – they are the future of the energy transition!
