ABOUT IRENA ABOUT ILO TheInternational Renewable Energy Agency(IRENA),a global inter-governmental organisation established in 2011, is the world’s principal platformfor co-operation to advance the transformation of the global energy system inpursuit of sustainable development, energy access, energy security, and low-carbon economic growth and prosperity. Serving as a centre of excellence andrepository of knowledge, IRENA promotes the adoption and sustainable use ofall forms of renewable energy, including bioenergy, geothermal, hydropower,ocean, solar and wind energy. The only tripartite UN agency, theInternationalLabour Organization(ILO)has,since1919,broughttogethergovernments,employersand workers in 187 Member States toset labour standards, develop policiesand devise programmes promotingdecent work for all women and men.www.ilo.org ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report was authored by Michael Renner and Celia García-Baños (IRENA) and Arslan Khalid (consultant).

FO R EWOR D We are pleased to present the 2025 edition of Renewableenergy and jobs, which offers the latest available estimates forrenewable energy employment worldwide.Those estimatesare complemented by an analysis of the evolving industry andpublic policy landscape for renewable energy employment, witha specific focus on the inclusive policies necessary to support asuccessful energy transition. At least 16.6 million people were directly or indirectly employedin the renewable energy industry in 2024 – the highest level ofemployment recorded globally to date. Despite strong growthinnew renewable energy capacity,however,employmentgrowth slowed significantly – mainly because China reported alower number of jobs than in 2023, as rising labour productivityandeconomies of scale have contributed to reducing jobintensity, offsetting increases seen in other countries. This wasdespite growth in China’s renewable power capacity, and itsmanufacturing of solar panels, wind turbines and other en
