Overview
The Solar Foundation is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to advancing the use of solar and solar-compatible technologies worldwide. It conducts and disseminates the National Solar Jobs Census and associated research products, including state jobs rankings and maps showing the number of jobs at the state, district, and county levels. The Census is the most rigorous survey-based count of solar workers in the U.S. The results provide useful educational tools for conveying the social and economic impacts of policies that reduce global warming emissions by replacing fossil fuels with cleaner fuels like sunshine.
