Florida green jobs are among the top in the country, as the state’s clean energy economy increased by 7.9 percent from 1998 to 2007.
“The Clean Energy Economy: Repowering Jobs, Businesses and Investments Across America,” a new study from Pew Charitable Trusts, placed Florida among the top 10 states for jobs in the clean energy economy.
During 2007, there were more than 31,100 jobs in Florida’s clean energy economy and 3,831 clean businesses. During the last three years, venture capital investment in clean technology throughout the state totaled almost $117 million. Half of that has gone to support clean energy generation.
