Abstract

The use of renewable energy (RE) sour ces plays a significant role in increa sing the security of energy supply and mitigating climate change. Whereas this role is und isputed, there is an ongoing discussion about the employment impacts of promoting RE deployment. So far no common methodological approach has been developed on how to assess employment impacts of RE deployment. This paper represents the result of a project (IEA-RETD) that intends to develop guidelines for the assessment of employment impacts and contribute to insights in impact mechanisms for modelling RE deployment effects. Therefore, the different focus of gross and net impact studies is elucidated and relevant aspects of gross and net impact assessment studies are discussed. Further, a few selected methodological approaches for impact assessment studies and their implication on the impacts are outlined. The focus of this presentation will be on net impact assessment studies. See above See above
