7. Working for a Sustainable Future DEMAND for a Green Workforce

8. Working for a Sustainable Future Americas growing green economy faces a looming labor shortage in sectors like manufacturing, construction, and utilities.

9. Working for a Sustainable Future The National Renewable Energy Lab has identified a shortage of skills and training as a leading barrier to renewable energy and energy efficiency growth.

10. Working for a Sustainable Future This labor shortage is only likely to get more severe as baby-boomers skilled in current energy technologies retire.

11. Working for a Sustainable Future For example in the energy sector about 55% of the workforce, nationwide, is over the age of 45. Many of these workers will either retire or prepare to retire within the next 10 years. Source: Drummond, Marcy (2008). Los Angeles utility sector: Workforce Needs and Challenges. Regional Economic Development Institute, Los Angeles Trade-Technical College.

12. Working for a Sustainable Future In Los Angeles, employment stability will also result from the retirement of much of the energy industrys workforce. It is estimated that nearly 8,000 trades-related jobs will need to be filled in the next 5 years due to retirements. Source: Drummond, Marcy (2008).
