Jobs are abundant in the renewables industry - find them hereMore than one thousand large wind turbines are currently being erected in the waters of Northern Europe. By 2020 this number will ten-fold each year. Such activities create jobs and by 2020 the offshore wind sector in Europe expects to employ 169,000 people. This will increase to 300,000 jobs by 2030 according to the European Wind Energy Association. Also read the global employment forecast for the renewable energy sector by Worldwatch Institute and read the analysis of job creation and the skills required for the renewable energy sector by IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency). NEW: By October 2012, the global offshore wind industry is about to surpass all previous records. Offshore wind power of more than 95.000 MW is now in the global project pipeline, according to Navigant/BTM Consult. 86 percent of these new wind turbines will be erected in European waters, five percent by the coasts of China. USA and South Korea counts for four percent each and Japan two percent. Find jobs belowHere you will find collections of current renewable jobs supplied by academia, industry and international agencies. Currently the most significant developments in global wind farms occur in the northern parts of Europe. If you are a researcher or a student, take a look at the job offerings at the International Network on Renewable Energy (INORE) at the bottom of this page. INORE is a dedicated network for researchers working with issues related to offshore renewable energy, i.e. wave, tidal or offshore wind energy.

Take a look at the near futureWatch the growing list of wind farms in the world and find the hiring companies that build them by looking up " Installations in progress" in the globally comprehensive LORC Knowledge Offshore Windfarms list. If you are not quite ready for a new carreer, for instance if you have not finished your professional training yet, keep an eye on the even larger list of "Commissioned" offshore wind farms, i.e. those wind farms that are now in the planning process. These projects will later need people. The LORC Knowledge database contains a wealth of information about offshore wind turbines and can be searched in many ways. Be our guest!
