Worldwide employment in renewable energy reached 12.7-million in the past year, which was an increase of 700 000 new jobs in one year despite the lingering effects of Covid-19 and the growing energy crisis, says global body the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena), which has published a report in collaboration with the International Labour Organisation (ILO). The 'Renewable Energy and Jobs: Annual Review 2022' report identifies domestic market size as a major factor influencing employment generation in renewables, along with labour and other costs.
