One in every four solar energy jobs in America is held by a Californian, and growth in the clean-tech industry is burgeoning nationwide, a new study said.
In August, California had an estimated 25,575 solar-related jobs out of 100,237 for all 50 states, according to the National Solar Jobs Census 2011. The census is scheduled for release Monday by the Solar Foundation, a research and education organization in Washington.
California's solar jobs tally was more than four times greater than runner-up Colorado, which had 6,186 solar jobs http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-solar-jobs-20111017,0,3230671.story
