Regional Australia will actually benefit the most from clean energy jobs that will be created if national climate change policies are put into place.
The Climate Institute recently released research that looked at existing clean energy projects and business proposals that will become reality with policies like the renewable energy target and emissions trading scheme.
These proposals, which already exist and are just waiting for strong policy to go into action, will create about 26,000 new jobs, most of them in regional Australia.1
The Climate Institute’s Clean Energy jobs map is a specially designed Google map that shows the location of existing clean energy projects and those that are underway or proposed.
