Nagpur: India’s renewable energy sector has the potential to employ around one million people in 2030, which will be about ten times more than the workforce that exists from an estimate of 1.1 lakh employed by this sector, revealing the latest studies.
In COP26 in Glasgow, the state is committed to installing 500 gigawatts (GW) fuel capacity fueled non-fossil fuel and produces 50% of its electricity through renewable energy sources in 2030.
Experts estimate that most new capacities for power plants tend to be based on solar and wind energy.
According to an independent study of expanded ‘expanding energy energy’ released by the Energy Council, Environment and Water (CEEB), the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the Skill Board for Green Work (SCGJ) on Thursday, most new jobs.
It will be produced by small-scale renewable energy projects such as solar and mini roofs and micro systems, compared to large-scale utilities or projects such as solar parks.
This analysis also highlights the adverse effects of pandemic about work in the clean energy sector.
“Compared to the 12,400 new workers employed in this sector in 2019, only 5,200 new workers were employed in 2020, while 6,400 was hired last year,” he said.
With almost 700 million people under the age of 30, creating a clean futuristic employment is a priority for the country, declare Sameer Kwatra, Director of the Indian program in NRDC.
“Her newest energy trips that have previously been able to set a new paradigm on how the countries pursue prosperity without adding carbon to the atmosphere.
Comply with the economy through renewable energy will not only increase energy independence, avoid carbon emissions and air pollution, but also help meet the purpose Indian work, “added Kwatra.
Emphasizing the work opportunities and growth offered by the country’s renewable energy target, Arunabha Ghosh, CEO CEO, “the upcoming budget must primarily focus on improving solar, mini systems and micro networks and domestic solar manufacturing to maximize employment opportunities in this sector.
Next , to accelerate the spread of solar parks and increase the absorption of re-renewable energy applications such as sun and roof pumps in Indian countryside, it will be very important to train rural youth and make them employable in various parts of the renewable energy ecosystem.
“Approve that the skills development program must target Rural areas in this case, the CEO of SCGJ Praveen Saxena added that training on technology that appears such as batteries and green hydrogen must be provided so that skilled workers are available to accelerate their spread.
The study also recommends that the country have to focus on playing a greater role in the global supply chain through an increase in the manufacture of local solar cells and panels.
“Policy makers must also focus on strengthening the grid infrastructure to accommodate high levels of renewable energy variables.
The sector sector will create additional employment opportunities,” he added.
What studies are said – The workforce employed in the sector can increase by 1030 times by 2030 – most new jobs can be created by small projects such as solar and mini roofs and micro networks – experts recommend training in rural youth – improvement in cell-making Solar and local panels are also needed
