In 2023, jobs in #cleanenergy grew at more than twice the rate of the strong overall U.S. job market. This new data comes from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s 2024 U.S. #Energy and Employment Report (USEER) - a comprehensive study designed to track and understand employment trends within key energy technologies. 2024 USEER findings show growth in every state and significant growth in clean energy sectors crucial to helping the U.S. achieve 100% clean energy goals. Of note, the construction sector added nearly 90,000 energy jobs, growing 4.5%, almost double the economy-wide construction employment growth of 2.3% thanks in part to recent federal policies (like the #InflationReductionAct and the bipartisan #Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act) that have spurred more than 800 clean energy facilities announced since 2021. Public-private partnerships are driving the clean energy transition, creating new jobs and economic opportunities in communities across America.
