Nonprofit E2 says passing the Inflation Reduction Act will drive more job growth in solar, wind and electric vehicles, return hiring to pre-COVID levels.
From roof-top solar installers to the technicians upgrading your home HVAC and green-minded urban planners, more than 3.2 million Americans now work in “clean energy” as of the start of 2022. And while California remains a leader, hiring has spanned red and blue political states from all regions.
“This data shows clean energy jobs are not red state jobs or blue state jobs — they’re red, white and blue jobs,” said Bob Keefe, E2’s executive director.

New Mexico, meanwhile, saw the biggest percentage growth in clean energy jobs last year after it passed clean energy policies, E2 said, calling them “some of the most promising policies in the country.” Growth also picked up in Oklahoma, Kentucky, Indiana and Idaho.
