- Green jobs may be the future. In a global economy where countries like the U.S. prioritize a carbon-free future, jobs like those in solar installation look set to grow.
We spoke with Kevin King, a foreman for EmPower Solar, a solar installation company based in New York City and Long Island. King spoke about his work experience, the day-to-day schedule as an installer and his outlook for the industry.
In the U.S., the outlook for photovoltaic construction, and therefore jobs, is strong according to researchers like Pol Lezcano from BloombergNEF. The U.S. set a new record for front-of-the-meter capacity additions in 2020, with an estimated 13.6GW of capacity added. As of 2020, the U.S. solar industry employs more than 230,000. Both metrics are set to grow over the next decade, even without investment on the federal level.

Renewable energy will save the world. Do you agree?
Yes, but not entirely, I think a change in mindset across all cultures and countries to reduce consumption of electricity, coal, and oil will have a far bigger impact. As for energy production nuclear fission reactors would be far more efficient. Solar panels are not carbon neutral for the most part since production requires excavation, refining and manufacturing which is where most carbon is released. When it comes to sustainability solutions would have to implemented world wide at an ever increasing pace.
renewable energy production only sits at 9% of the total, while consumption is rapidly climbing.I can only hope we don't end up with severe power shortages.

won’t save the world but will save you that $$$
Spot on bro yes world is saved 👏
