Description

Deloitte’s Brad Denny and Carolyn Amon talk about their report, The Decarbonized Power Workforce: Digital and Diverse, which suggests decarbonization by 2035 could lead to a tripling of the power workforce. Our guests offer suggestions on what the power sector will need to do to fill these jobs, including expediting digitalization, preparing to compete against other industries for those with select digital and data management skills, planning for continuous training of a digital workforce, recruiting for talent in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas and from a more diverse pool of talent, and changing misperceptions of industry employment.
