Jobs and market value continue to grow Data provided by Innovas 112,000 people were employed across the UK renewable energy value chain in 2013/14, an increase of 8.7% on the previous year. The industry’s market value has increased over that time by 6.1% to £14.9billion. The analysis forecasts this increasing to £22billion by 2019/20. If employment numbers increase at a similar rate to market value over that time, this would imply an additional 55,000 people employed.
Conclusions The industry has come a long way in recent years and can continue to grow strongly. For individual technologies, there is a strong correlation between Government policy and deployment. Where this is stable and supportive, there have been considerable successes. Where the opposite is true, technologies have stalled or gone backwards. A key driver of this growth has been the
targets contained in the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive. This has given investors confidence that major policies will be introduced, even when the details of them were not yet clear. The nature of the EU’s 2030 climate change package will therefore be critical for future success. Both in what it says on paper and the extent to which project developers and investors are confident that it will lead to decisive action.
