Abstract

The labor market implications of large investment into renewable energy (RE) are analyzed in this text. Although a growing RE industry can be observed in Germany the overall effect of large increases of expensive electricity and heat generating technologies on the German economy require a careful model based analysis. The paper shows the overall effects under different assumptions for fossil fuel prices; domestic installations and international trade. Most of these scenarios exhibit positive effects.
