A decarbonisation workforce benchmark for leaders in solar, battery, and hydrogen
The Hidden Constraint on Clean Energy Delivery
Europe is entering a decisive phase of the energy transition. Massive build-outs in solar, battery, and hydrogen are planned, but workforce readiness is not keeping pace. Persistent shortages of installers, engineers, and technicians are already slowing delivery timelines, inflating costs, and increasing exposure to regulatory and operational risks.
Technology and capital are ready. The real constraint is people. Understanding where and how those bottlenecks emerge is now a strategic imperative for every business planning growth in the clean-tech value chain.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
This benchmark gives leaders the data to plan for workforce gaps before they affect delivery. Built from verified labour market data and real-world industry input, it outlines where demand will outstrip supply and what that means for your strategy. You will gain:
- Sector-specific workforce forecasts across solar, battery, and hydrogen through 2030
- Role-level demand benchmarks, identifying where pressure on skills is most critical
- Strategic levers to align hiring, upskilling, and investment plans
- Reasons to start treating your workforce as a core strategic variable, on par with capital, policy, and infrastructure.
