Massachusetts’ clean energy economy is open for business.
With nearly 120,000 jobs statewide in fields such as renewables, clean vehicles manufacturing, and energy efficiency, the Commonwealth’s clean energy economy employs more than giants like Partners Healthcare (around 60,000 workers), the University of Massachusetts (25,000), and Stop & Shop (20,000).
According to the 2019 Clean Jobs Massachusetts analysis (downloadable PDF) Massachusetts ranks seventh for total clean jobs among all U.S. States, including second in solar energy behind only California. In fact, Massachusetts’ strong solar energy industry employs over 50% more workers than the third ranked state (New York). While over 82,000 Massachusetts clean jobs are in the Boston metro area (which ranks fourth in the U.S.), 29% of the state’s jobs are outside Boston.
This report follows E2’s Clean Jobs America analysis which found the clean energy jobs account for nearly 3.3 million jobs across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Both reports expand on data from the U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER) produced by the Energy Futures Initiative (EFI) in partnership with the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO), using data collected and analyzed by the BW Research Partnership. E2 is a partner on the USEER, the fourth installment of the energy survey first released by the Department of Energy in 2016. Clean energy jobs have grown every year since the first report was released in 2016.

While New York City has the second most clean energy jobs in the U.S. with more than 96,000, behind only Los Angeles, clean energy’s impact reaches far beyond New York’s major metropolitan areas. One out of every seven clean energy workers are employed counties with population below 300,000 while 9,500 jobs are in the state’s rural areas.
