As of March 2009, economic reports confirm that green collar jobs hold this economy's most promising career paths. People with technical skills and expertise on energy and electricity production and distribution, equipment installation and maintenance, particularly those who have participated in or taken solar training courses, are at great advantage. With the current US administration backing up the development of alternative energy sources, it is predicted that the solar industry will achieve a 30% annual growth and more.

Throughout the globe, the United States is not alone in its initiative in advancing its energy sources and properties. There is also an observed increase in the demand for green collar jobs in many European and Asian countries. Today, US companies take hold of the most development projects in honing solar energy.
