“…like the rest of or most of the economy in the United States, clean energy took a pretty big hit last year. Clean energy jobs fell for the first time since we’ve been tracking them nationally dropping about 307,000 jobs nationally.”
But according to E2’s Clean Jobs in America 2021 report, data indicates that clean energy has proven to be more resilient than many other economic sectors. Since May 2020, clean energy jobs have grown by more than 11%, compared to about 9% across the U.S. economy overall.
