WHAT'S inspirING
“Overall, the 90% Clean case supports over 500,000 more jobs each year compared to the No New Policy case. A loss of about 100,000 fossil fuel operations and maintenance jobs is more than offset by growth in wind and solar construction of over 600,000 jobs per year. The 90% Clean case supports about 1.8 million ongoing jobs, or a total of approximately 29 million job-years from 2020–2035. About 1.1 million jobs, or 18 million job-years, are related to the construction, manufacturing, and supply chain of the electricity system (including induced jobs). The additional 700,000 jobs (11 million job-years) are related to operations and maintenance. In contrast, the No New Policy case supports approximately 1.3 million ongoing jobs, or 20 million job-years from 2020–2035. Approximately 460,000 ongoing jobs (7.4 million job-years) are related to construction, manufacturing, and supply chain industries, while another 813,000 (13 million job-years) are related to operations and maintenance. “ *2035 The Report, page 28
