Abstract: This paper evaluates the regional effects of moving towards non-fossil fuel-based capacity at the state level. It specifically examines the creation of relevant clean energy employment and the corresponding need for skilling to achieve India’s targets of reducing emissions intensity by 2030. While prior literature on energy employment has focussed more on the actual estimates of employment generated, the present study answers the question of "geographically where" employment will be generated.
