Description (excerpt):

In 2023, clean energy investments powered strong overall growth of jobs in the energy sector. Unionization rates in clean energy grew to their highest level yet, driven by large increases in union-dense construction and utility employment. Energy employers reported less difficulty in hiring qualified workers than in the previous year.

The U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER) allocates energy employment to five technology areas: electric power generation; energy efficiency; fuels; motor
vehicles; and transmission, distribution, and storage. Employment increased across all five of these technology areas in 2023.
