Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship (10/15, Marsh) – A new report from Clean Edge highlights clean-tech employment trends in the U.S. and globally.
Clean Tech Job Trends is an analysis of how clean-tech jobs are changing the face of industry, where the hotbeds of growth exist, and whether current clean-tech salaries are living up to their "green-over blue-collar" promise. The report also includes a list of the top
U.S. metro areas for clean-tech job activity, a study of median clean-tech compensation levels, and emerging models for financing clean-tech growth.
Clean Tech Job Trends 2009 identifies five trends that are reshaping the clean tech industry:
- Energy efficiency: the number of direct jobs created per million dollar investment in building retrofits and smart grid is rising
- Aging workforce: the utility industry is looking for ways to attract a new generation of employees
- New on campuses: clean-tech career training
- Clean-Tech manufacturing moves near end-use markets
- The next big thing in IT jobs: networking the grid
