Sunny Outlook for Solar Market

 

If you are looking for a job that might have some staying power, you might want to consider something in the U.S. solar market. According to a recent report by GTM Research, the U.S. is set to challenge Germany for world dominance in the solar market.

 

GTM Research estimates a 50 percent increase in the next two years in solar-related projects in this country that could create 50,000 new jobs. These projects would generate new solar power resources for 1.5 million homes.

 

Despite the downturn in the economy, solar projects increased to a record level in 2009, increasing predictions that this sector is a growth market. Both home- and commercial-site projects are sparking this growth.

 

Not surprisingly, California is the leading state in generating new solar-project businesses and jobs. But, Massachusetts is not that far behind. Massachusetts, along with Arizona, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, and Nevada, make up a strong second tier of states that have emerged in this field.
