Solar Job Board
The solar energy industry is booming. Since 2009, the amount of solar energy connected to the grid has increased more than 35-fold, reaching 62.5 GW today. This expansion has resulted in the creation of thousands of new solar industry jobs, with more than 240,000 people currently employed and projections of major growth in the future. Solar is the next great American industry.
The Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) is supporting this growing solar workforce with training programs, professional development and career building. See below for a list of resources.
Elevate Energy received funding from SETO to educate residential real estate agents, appraisers, and appraiser regulatory officials about solar energy systems through web-based, continuing education classes. The training teaches these professionals how to correctly identify critical characteristics of solar energy systems, how to account for solar in multiple listing service systems, and how to use this information to correctly support the fair valuation of homes with solar installations.
