Transition from a fossil fuel to renewable energy is going to be one of the main drivers of economic growth - the switching costs are enormous and will require a lot human capital to do it. OECD Employment Outlook devotes 2 major chapters to green energy transition as far as it relates to jobs giving it a thorough treatment from discussing classification (what is a green job), what percentage of people currently do them, how many people work in the old energy system and which need to transition, where those jobs are located, how do we re-skill and so on. Essential market intelligence doc for those recruiters who want in on the green economy.
