‘The successful arrival of solar\u2019s gigawatt\/terawatt future depends on a ever-more-challenging combination of cost cutting and technology enhancement, with a large portion of public policy behavior modification thrown in. But there\u2019s another piece of the GW\/TW scaling puzzle that sometimes gets left out of the conversation\u2014the need for a large, well-trained workforce to do the thousands and thousands of jobs that will sprout up across the photovoltaic production and system value chain.’<\/p>\n
