What are the different types of industries within energy?
Energy has to be generated, distributed, and then consumed. There are jobs needed at each step. The following industries are of vital importance for this system to function properly without waste:
Traditional Electric Utilities
Generate electricity from non-renewable sources.
Renewable Energy Generation
Facilities generate electricity from alternative sources.
Electric and Gas Distribution
Lines carry electricity from the source to the neighborhood.
Building-related Energy Efficiency
Ensure electricity is not wasted by residential and commercial consumers.
All participants in the supply chain – including you! – can help stop global warming by reducing energy consumption.
