Labor Secretary Solis Says Renewable Jobs Hiring Set to Improve

Solis says that renewable hiring is set to increase in the next 12 months, but significant growth in the renewable industry will not happen for a while still as renewable energy requires a large portion of the United States labor market (Associated Press).

The reason for the number of jobs in the renewable market, according to labor secretary Solis, is the federal government's investment/commitment to renewable energy. As our economy begins to stabilize and people obtain jobs, we will begin to see more investment in renewables.

These remarks came from the second National Clean Energy Summit in Las Vegas. Senate Majority Leader Reid, an attendee of the conference, is hoping to incorporate some of the ideas into renewable energy legislation after the recess (KGET.com).
