Greentech and Cleantech Jobs

By Michael Schulze
If Jobboards like Monster.com and Careerbuilder.com start Cleantech job channels we know something is going on.
As Greentech is more and more interesting in this financial environment, there will be created more energy jobs and Green Energy jobs within this decade. Obama and Al Gore already pointed out that Climate Change is one of the most critical challenges we face in these days. I just came back from a conference at the UNEP ( United Nations Environment Programme ) Green New Deal they where responsible for the and the paper from March 2009. In this paper they also outlined the job creation opportunities that are possible with eco tourism, construction and energy effiency. I am sure that more and more jobs wil be created oin this sector. Solar, Wind, Water and many other areas. And one is for sure, today´s talent is looking at Clean Tech Career paths.

Cleantech Approach (CTA) publishes its first report on energy efficiency/lighting. Download at: http://bit.ly/qvIG2

By Romahlo Wilson
At the request of a top municipality, Cleantech Approach (CTA) has published its first research report on energy efficient lighting. The report was requested to assess the economics of retrofitting facilities and infrastructure in order to reduce their energy consumption, and to guide policies and economic incentives to hasten the adoption of more energy efficient products by landlords, developers and citizens.

The report was conducted on a non-exclusive basis and has been well received by municipalities; real estate developers and owners; institutions (i.e., universities); lighting designers, manufacturers, reps and distributors; and investors who are utilizing it in their sustainability efforts. We will also be sharing the report with utilities who are interested in energy efficient products for their customers and incentive programs. The report can be downloaded on our site at http://bit.ly/qvIG2.

In the next few months, we will be working on two additional reports on "smart grid/electricity monitoring and control solutions" and another on "distributed generation in urban environments." We are currently looking to connect with municipalities, global development organizations, investors and companies who have an active interest in these sectors. Please feel free to share the link to our report and let us know if there is anyone that we should be connecting with in these sectors.
