Indian companies want green-skilled professionals. But education system is yet to catch up

India is currently facing a shortage of skilled professionals in the green energy sector. However, the future looks promising for those with the necessary skills and training. The Indian government has set ambitious targets for renewable energy development and is investing heavily in the sector. There is an increasing demand for engineers, technicians, and managers with expertise in renewable energy. Architects, engineers, and project managers with expertise in green building design and construction are in high demand.

The future for skilled green professionals in India looks positive, as the government's commitment to renewable energy and sustainable development is expected to drive the industry’s growth. Those with the necessary skills and training will have plenty of opportunities to contribute to the country's efforts to combat climate change and build a sustainable future.

On 15 August 2021, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the National Hydrogen Mission, a policy that aims at promoting green hydrogen in a bid to cut emissions and to make India a major exporter in the field in the next 25 years.  First announced in the 2021-22 Union Budget, the scheme was seen by many as an opportunity to create 6 lakh “green jobs” — employment opportunities that can contribute to preserving or restoring the environment.
