Electricians: Training
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether she is taking steps to help increase the number of skilled electricians able to support the (a) installation and (b) maintenance of low-carbon technologies.
- Answer
-
Government will publish the Green Jobs Plan in the first half of 2024. This will outline the actions government and industry will take to ensure we have the skilled workforce at the right time and place, to deliver our net zero, nature, and energy security targets.
We are aware of the need to increase the number of appropriately skilled electricians for installation and maintenance of low carbon technologies. The Green Jobs Delivery Group is utilising workforce assessments to understand the scale of demand in different sectors; actions are being developed to address this demand within the Green Jobs Plan.
