New jobs thanks to renewable energy

The renewable energy sources are not only but stimuli for employment. The predictions made by the European Commission and Greenpeace agree on this point and give a very interesting, with hundreds of thousands of new jobs.

We start from the prospectus Europe. According to the estimates presented in these days by the Deputy Director General, DG Energy of the European Commission, Fabrizio Barbaso, "With a common foreign energy policy we could create new jobs: in the investment industry should create about 800 thousand new jobs in Europe with the policy of renewable 400 thousand, with 2 million energy efficiency policy. " Summing up, leaving 2.4 million taken together, renewables and energy efficiency.

Barbaso looks at the need to regulate "the flow of imports with a common foreign energy policy, with a new awareness on the part of Europe." It is "a shared policy towards suppliers may try to assert his voice against the international market. If we can implement these policies should be able to create new jobs. " From here the estimates really optimistic.

Adding to the optimism about the stimulus provided by the occupational sources "clean" energy there are also predictions of Greenpeace. Through its relationship Energy [R] evolution 2012 the environmental organization has shown that "The employment numbers are expected to change significantly. It is expected an employment rate increasing, with 65% of the jobs in the energy sector in 2030 secured from renewable sources. "

The real revolution, according to Greenpeace, runs right through sun, wind and other alternative energy opportunities, able to "get to cover 2030 37% of the global demand for electricity, with an installed capacity of 7,392 GW." In the long term, it is noted in the report, 94% of electricity will be produced from renewable sources, which will be "significantly cheaper" of other sources, with a reduction of costs in the bill up to 40%.
