Solar Is Creating Jobs Almost 20 Times Faster Than Overall U.S. Economy

Get a Quick Free Solar Estimate Using Satellites

With the reduction of cost in renewables the US is seeing a boom with Solar creating jobs across the country.

With people becoming more environmentally aware every day, it’s no surprise that residential solar panel installation has skyrocketed. In fact, two-thirds of all solar photovoltaic system (PV) capacity worldwide has been installed since 2011. You might be impressed by this statistic, but the most amazing effect of solar energy has actually been on the economy as we see Solar creating jobs in many key states.

Solar Growing Faster than the Economy

There are various reasons one might choose to explore Colorado solar energy jobs, and they are proving to be quite compelling for job seekers as evidenced by the skyrocketing job growth in the solar sector. In fact, the Census shows that between 2010 and 2014, jobs in solar increased a full 86 percent. In 2014 alone, 31,000 new jobs were created by the solar industry. And unlike many statistics attributed to other industries, the vast majority of solar industry jobs actually focus directly on solar activities. Talk about an environmentally friendly economic boom.

Solar Energy Jobs Growing Faster Than Ever

Although the 86 percent growth over four years is impressive, solar incentives have caused employment opportunities in the industry to skyrocket even more over the last year. Just this year, the number of solar jobs increased 21 percent. The growth over the last 12 months was so intense, in fact, that one out of every 78 American jobs was created by the solar industry. Any idea what that equates to? Almost 1.3 percent of all jobs.

The Best of the Best in the Solar Industry

If you’ve ever had cable or Internet installed, you likely think that companies snatch up unskilled workers with minimal training to get the job done. This simply isn’t the case for those who install solar panels. The U.S. Census found that the solar industry is attracting highly skilled and well-paid professionals. The increase in the number of these competitive jobs is undoubtedly related to solar incentives that allow people to make their own energy choices, while simultaneously saving money and helping the environment.

Solar Panel Installation is Driving Growth

Solar jobs are empowering Americans, and it’s solar panel installation that’s driving most of this growth. The number of solar installation jobs has actually more than doubled just since 2010. And as a testament to our diverse country, there are now more African-Americans, women, Hispanics and veterans in these positions than in 2013. What better way to empower the American dream?

The solar industry’s exponential growth is partially attributed to the numerous incentives that consumers get from their use. Request a free residential solar panel consultation today to learn how you can cash in on these incentives.
