The Powering Jobs Census 2022 aimed at assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the growth of Decentralized Renewable Energy (DRE) jobs. The sector continued to create good and meaningful employment in sub-Saharan Africa and India since the last census (2019).
The report provides a comprehensive overview of employment in the DRE sector, including skill levels, training opportunities, compensation, participation of women and youth, and job retention. It is based on a survey of more than 350 companies and numerous focus groups across five countries: Ethiopia, India, Kenya, Nigeria, and Uganda.
