Abstract
These responses to the questions posed by the ESNZ Committee draw on ongoing research by the UKRI-funded Energy Demand Research Centre (EDRC) and reference published research.
Questions answered:
Does the Government have an appropriate understanding of the skill needs to deliver the Clean Energy Mission by 2030 as well as decarbonise homes and businesses?
To what extent can the Clean Energy Mission and the retrofitting of homes and businesses be carried out by the existing workforce and to what extent will it require new entrants to the workforce?
How might the Government ensure that the job market in clean energy roles is sustainable enough to incentivise private sector investment in training for 2030 and beyond?
How can the new Office for Clean Energy jobs contribute to workforce planning in the energy sector?
