Solar Energy sector shall be best job option for coming time and will prove as best placement destination in employment sector. For fulfilling targets of 20,000 MW of installed capacity under the National Solar Mission, the Indian solar energy industry will need an estimated 1 lakh people by 2022 across service sector, industry, maintenance, installation, power generation and ancillary industries.

Funding too is easily available with foreign investment banks like Goldman Sachs, Blackrock, JP Morgan investing heavily in the space. This is why there has been a flood of entrants in the sector. 
There has been huge increase in demand for skilled and trained manpower from these players. The profiles range from project head, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) head, project directors, GM operations/project, senior manager projects, manager projects, purchase manager, solar engineer, assistant technical manager, assistant procurement manager to manager purchase, manager operations. Both sides of the solar business- equipment manufacturing and power generation-need people to cash in on the growth in the solar industry.

On the manufacturing side, it would be electrical engineers and mechanical engineers to design, civil, operations and maintenance engineers in power generation with experience in traditional power sector who are in high demand across levels.

The scarcity of talent is severe as there are few colleges or institutes offering courses dedicated to solar energy or renewable energy. According to some estimates, there are 25 institutes in India offering courses on energy studies, with renewable energy as one of the subjects.
