RÉSUMÉ : The contribution of Renewable Energy to Employment is also considerable. As stated in the MITRE report until 2010 the employment growth is significant the coming years. According the advance renewable strategy scenario, the net employment growth is expected to be 1,660,000 new jobs until 2010 and 2,463,000 new jobs until 2020.

This handbook is a tool for occupational counsellors and career advisors to help guide those who may be interested in pursuing a career in the Renewable Energy Sector. It consists of two parts. The first part provides an overview of the different technologies within the Renewable Energy Sector. This includes an assessment of the current state of the art of each technology and the potential for development and employment. The second part of the handbook provides example job-profiles covering the majority of skilled professions and occupations that exist in the renewable energy labour market. Many professions are applicable to several renewable energy technologies and although variations occur between countries and companies the job descriptions are designed to cover the widest range possible.

This handbook is part of a complete support package for occupational counsellors and advisors which consists of : - The Renewable Energy Sector Overview and Job-Profile Handbook ; - A Renewable Energy Sectors Training Course Database for the 15 EU countries (which is available in an electronic format from the internet) ; - An On-Line Renewable Energy Sectors Job-Offer Database. Through informed guidance and easily accessible resources it is hoped that individuals will be able to benefit by engaging in fulfilling renewable energy career opportunities and also facilitate the growth of Renewable Energy Sector. The report was financed by the European Commission, in the framework of the EARTHCARE project.
