The cynic in me suggests that finding recruits for zero-energy jobs should be easy, given how many couch potatoes we have!
I scan-read the document. My overall impression was that it focuses, almost obsesses, over recruiting youngsters while saying little about existing workers. There is the obvious talent pool of the oil and gas industries and their supply chains: how many might move across?; what are the demographics? They are certainly going to need a lot of experienced folk.
Then there is the existing workforce in all the power stations and their supplier infrastructures which are closing down over the next 10 years or so.
Those 4 milestones for this decade are extremely ambitious, to put it mildly. We are over one year into that timescale and, without checking, I very much doubt they are anywhere near to target,
It also seemed a bit surreal: so much sincerity and commitment to something which to these jaded eyes, looks both unachievable and futile.
