The global energy transition is accelerating at an unprecedented rate, with a record-breaking £1.66 trillion invested in 2024. This surge in funding is reshaping the landscape of electric transport, renewable energy, and power infrastructure. However, as the demand for cleaner energy grows, so does the need for a skilled workforce capable of implementing and maintaining these advanced technologies.
A recent BloombergNEF report highlights that while mature sectors like electric transport and renewable energy are thriving, emerging technologies such as hydrogen and carbon capture are struggling to attract investment. To bridge this gap, governments and businesses must prioritize workforce development, ensuring that training programs evolve in tandem with industry advancements. Without a well-trained labor force, the clean energy transition may face significant bottlenecks, hindering the ability to meet ambitious net-zero targets.
