The new business/job outlook looks bright for solar industries, with some 42,000 new jobs by 2015, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association.
Solar energy could be the best way to ease the looming natural gas crisis and become the economic choice for energy for millions of people in the next decade, the Association told a congressional subcommittee recently.
With natural gas demand and prices skyrocketing, SEIA president Rhone Resch says that solar power could displace 6 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in the next year, saving U.S. consumers approximately $64 billion.
He also predicts that the solar industry could employ 260,000 people by 2030 and generate more than $34 billion in new manufacturing investments over the next 10 years.
