As the 'green jobs' trend evolves from political platform to economic reality, the industry driving it — clean tech — is becoming one of the key markets for growth and job creation.

The Clean Tech Job Trends 2009 report is an insightful investigation of how 'green jobs' are changing the face of industry, where the hotbeds of growth exist, and whether current clean-tech salaries are living up to their 'green-over blue-collar' promise.

In this report prepared by Clean Edge — a leading clean-tech research and publishing firm — job seekers, employers, investors, and policymakers have access to data including: clean-tech hot spots and leading companies in the U.S. and around the globe; the top five clean-tech job sectors; a study of median clean-tech compensation levels; five trends reshaping clean tech; and emerging models for financing clean-tech growth.
