An Introduction to the Texas Green Jobs GuidebookIn this challenging economy, Texans are looking
for rewarding careers that can put them on the
path toward financial stability. However, many
are unfamiliar with the opportunities offered by
the growing green economy. This Guidebook
aims to provide people with a tool for joining or
learning more about this burgeoning industry.
Texas is the number one producer of wind
energy in the country, and also possesses
resources for opportunities in other renewable
and energy efficiency sectors. Our state is home
to many clean energy and green technology
companies. Many of the jobs profiled in this
Guidebook are in traditional employment
sectors, such as manufacturing, installation,
fabrication and operations, but new
opportunities for adding a green layer to these
types of jobs are emerging. For example,
electricians can use their skills to install solar
photovoltaic panels and machinists can use
their knowledge to manufacture wind turbine
components. New opportunities also exist in
both urban and rural settings within sectors
such as green building, renewable energy, energy
efficiency audits, power plant operations,
facilities management, and farm and ranch
management. These jobs pay workers living
wages, grant them access to safe and healthy
working conditions, and provide opportunities
for advancement. Most of these careers, such as
wind turbine installation and maintenance and
energy audits, cannot be outsourced overseas.
They provide an opportunity to build a strong,
long-lasting foundation for Texas workers, now
and into the future.
These jobs are available or will become available
throughout the state of Texas. Some areas may
specialize in a particular industry, such as wind
energy in West Texas and solar energy in Austin,
but opportunities abound in every region.
This Guidebook is designed to be a resource for
job seekers, students, guidance counselors,
career advisors, policy makers and anyone else
interested in learning about the tremendous
potential of the existing and growing green jobs
marketplace in Texas. This Guidebook features
an expansive listing of green jobs throughout the
Texas economy that includes job descriptions,
salary information, minimum education
requirements, potential certifications, employer
types, job market growth potential, and much
more. This list is by no means comprehensive.
The very nature of the clean energy economy is
that it is dynamic, and new opportunities will
continue to present themselves.
Information for these job profiles was primarily
compiled from job search websites,
organizational websites, industry contacts, the
“Green Jobs Guidebook,” (California) authored
by Environmental Defense Fund with the Ella
Baker Center for Human Rights and “Careers for
Colorado’s New Energy Economy,” authored by
Environmental Defense Fund with the Colorado
Governor’s Energy Office.
Texas Green Jobs Guidebook2
The Outlook for Green Jobs Improved in 2009
2009 marked a sea change in funding and
attention to the clean energy economy and
green jobs. In February 2009, President Barack
Obama signed into law the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), which
includes $787 billion in loans, tax cuts, grants,
contracts and other funding in order to
facilitate:
• Creation of new jobs and preservation
of existing ones;
• Economic growth and investment in
long-term economic growth; and
• Unprecedented levels of accountability
and transparency in government
spending.
Included in the $787 billion is a $48 billion
investment in job training and education, nearly
$100 billion in funding for transportation and
infrastructure, $20 billion in tax incentives for
renewable energy, and more than $41 billion for
energy-related programs. This legislation
creates an unprecedented opportunity to lay the
foundations for a clean energy economy and the
creation of green jobs.
The ARRA funds have been disbursed to
states, and Texas received $593,807,800 for
energy and weatherization programs and
additional funds for workforce training. The
state of Texas designated $90 million for the
Skills Development Fund, which can be used
toward green job skills training. The table below
indicates the breakout of ARRA funding for the
green economy in Texas.
In February 2009, President Barack Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), which facilitates the creation of new jobs, economic growth and improved accountability.

In addition to ARRA, several pieces of
national legislation are being considered by
Congress that could bolster Texas’ green jobs
sector if passed.
The American Clean Energy and Security Act
(H.R. 2454), which passed the U.S. House of
Representatives in June 2009, contains four
helpful provisions. First, it would allow the
Secretary of Education to award “Clean Energy
Curriculum Development Grants” to
partnerships of high schools, technical schools,
colleges, and experts from the community who
wish to establish programs of study. These must
focus on emerging careers in renewable energy,
efficiency, and climate change. This provision
would prioritize online learning and programs
that focus on poorly performing, disabled,
disadvantaged, or minority students. Second,
the bill would increase funding for state-level
energy efficiency and renewable energy worker
training programs that target poor and
disadvantaged individuals. Third, it would
require the Secretary of Labor to establish an
online information and resources clearinghouse
to aid career and technical job training
programs in the renewable energy sector. It
would help address the challenges of changing
technology and regional disparity in job training
programs by facilitating collaboration to help
programs remain effective and up-to-date. The
clearinghouse would be publicly available
online. Finally, the bill would require the
Secretaries of Labor and Energy to create a
Green Construction Careers demonstration
project. This project would aim to promote
green construction careers by identifying
projects, such as a residential energy efficiency
retrofit, and ensuring that contractors
participate in apprenticeship and training
programs for lower income people. At the
publication of this Guidebook, the Senate
companion to H.R. 2454 is awaiting debate in
the U.S. Senate.
There are two more green jobs bills awaiting
committee review in the Senate. The first (S.
1096) would establish the EnergyGrant
Competitive Education Program. It would
provide $300 million each year from 2010
through 2014 to be awarded, on a competitive
basis, to consortiums of technical schools or
colleges to “conduct research, extension, and
education programs relating to the energy needs
of the region.” This would include green jobs
promotion and probably training programs.
The second (S. 1097) would create a sustainable
energy training program that would award
money to community colleges for workforce
training and education programs. Potential
sectors include alternative energy, efficiency,
conservation, recycling, and sustainable
agriculture. Additional legislation for green jobs
continues to be introduced, indicating the high
level of importance this sector has to Congress.
A note on Job entries in the Guidebook
Job descriptions and salaries in this Guidebook
should be viewed as guidelines. A job with the
same description may have different titles in
two different companies, or two completely
different jobs may have similar or identical
titles. Salaries also vary widely depending on
employer, geographical location, experience,
economic conditions, and other factors. Jobs
selected for this guidebook aim to represent the
breadth and depth of green jobs available now
and in the coming years. Therefore, each job
entry describes only the opportunities available
in that field, not necessarily a specific position.
Also, the entries may contain positions that are
not currently hiring, but that illustrate the types
of jobs available in an industry.
Finally, although each sector is divided into
sections, e.g., Installation and Maintenance, that
reflect the typical divisions of companies, skill
sets and job types in a particular field, some jobs
may involve activities that fall into two or more
sections. The sections are to facilitate browsing,
but should not be taken as a complete
characterization of each sector.
The following system is used to determine
experience level required:
• 0 years = Entry Level
• 1-3 years = Mid Level
• 4+ years = High Level

Sector Information
Not all sectors in the index are covered here
Solar power
Texas has considerable solar resource potential.
It receives significant direct solar radiation,
providing energy that can be harnessed by
photovoltaic (PV) cells and turned directly into
electricity or that can be used by solar-thermal
plants to produce steam and drive electricity-
producing turbines. West Texas has more than
double the direct solar radiation of East Texas,
so it is an excellent location for PV or for utility-
scale concentrating solar power (CSP)
technologies, which use large mirrors to focus
the sun’s power.
The solar power industry is growing at a
staggering rate, and much of that growth will
take place in Texas. The Energy Information
Administration projects that solar energy
produced in the U.S. will grow significantly over
the next 25 years. In 2005, the Texas Legislature
set a goal of installing 10,000 megawatts of
renewable energy by 2025, 500 of which must
come from non-wind sources.
Texas has considerable solar resource potential.
Texas Green Jobs Guidebook6
This all bodes well for those hoping to build a
solar power career in Texas. For example, CSP
plants create five times more long-term jobs and
10 times more construction jobs than a
comparable natural gas plant, according to the
National Renewable Energy Laboratory. There
will be tremendous demand for employees in all
areas of Texas’ solar industry in the coming
decades.

org/2009/06/11/facts-on-energy-solar/
Wind power
Texas currently produces more wind power than
any other state. As of 2009, it had almost 8000
megawatts of installed capacity, about 2.5 times
the capacity of the second-place state, Iowa,
according to the American Wind Energy
Association.
The wind potential in Texas is so great that
the State Legislature included a 500 megawatt
non-wind goal within the renewable portfolio
standard of 10,000 megawatts of renewable
energy by 2025, predicting that otherwise wind
would fulfill the entire goal. As the state works
toward that goal and national policies shift in
favor of renewable energy, the Texas wind
industry will continue to grow.

Geothermal power
Geothermal power uses steam generated by the
heat of the Earth to produce electricity.
Significant potential exists for geothermal
development in Texas. Parts of both East and
West Texas have sufficiently hot underground
water resources to allow for direct use
geothermal, which uses geothermal reservoirs
to heat homes and businesses and facilitate
industrial processes. In addition, old oil and gas
wells can provide access to high-temperature
resources previously thought inaccessible. The
Geothermal Laboratory at Southern Methodist
University estimates that Texas could have 2,000
to 10,000 megawatts of geothermal generating
capacity within 10 years by taking advantage of
these wells. Texas will most likely intensify its
use of this clean and renewable resource in the
coming years.

biomass/biogas
Biomass is energy produced from wood, food
crops, grasses, agricultural residue, manure and
methane from landfills. Texas has significant
forest and agriculture sectors, which means an
abundance of biomass resources, primarily in
East Texas and the Panhandle. Texas is home to
several ethanol plants, and is the largest
producer of biodiesel in the U.S. Biomass is also
different from other renewable energy sources
in that in addition to being used as an electricity
source, about 10 percent of biomass is used for
transportation fuels, although this number is
slightly lower in Texas. In the state, the majority
of biomass is used by the industries that create
it—paper, chemical and food processing—to
generate heat, electricity and steam used onsite.
Texas is taking the lead in biogas, having
opened the nation’s first cellulose biogas plant
in the U.S., in Leon County in East Texas in 2009.
The plant will generate one megawatt of
electricity, enough to power 400 homes year
round. Based on expected revenue, this first
project estimates it will create 137 jobs and 14
businesses in the surrounding area. Four new
plants will begin construction in Central Texas
in 2010, and 50 plants are expected to be

running within the next eight years, according
to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Texas’
extensive refining capacity and distribution
infrastructure also means that as biofuels are
developed nationally, the state is likely to
become the center for refining and distributing
those fuels.

Hydrogen power
The use of hydrogen to generate energy is still in
the developmental stage, limited to research
and pilot projects. However, Texas will have
several advantages as the hydrogen power
industry develops in the next few decades.
Texas is second only to California in total
hydrogen production, and it is a major
consumer of hydrogen for industrial processes.
It has a hydrogen pipeline network, and the
state’s energy sector has experience working
with the material. Texas will continue to
develop its lead in hydrogen power as the
associated technologies move toward
commercial viability.
Sources:http://www.window.state.tx.us/specialrpt/
energy/renewable/h2.php
Hydroelectric power
Hydroelectric power, generated by damming a
river and forcing it to flow through a turbine that
produces electricity, constitutes less than 1% of
Texas’ power generation. Existing and potential
hydropower projects are mostly confined to
Central and Eastern Texas. The state has 23
hydroelectric dams with a total generating
capacity of only 673 megawatts, and it is
unlikely that it will see a significant expansion of
hydropower in the future. However, the industry
will maintain a healthy need for employees to
maintain and administer existing facilities and
to develop more efficient hydroelectric
technologies.

Texas Green Jobs Guidebook8
carbon capture and Storage
Carbon capture and storage (or sequestration)
(CCS) is a process by which carbon dioxide is
captured from large point sources, such as fossil
fuel power plants, natural gas processing or
heavy industry—including cement, paper and
pulp processing—and stored rather than
emitted into the atmosphere. No large
industrial-scale projects are currently located in
Texas. However, in 2007, the Bureau of
Economic Geology at the University of Texas
received a 10-year, $38 million subcontract from
the National Energy Technology Lab to conduct
the first U.S.-based monitored, long-term
project to study the feasibility of CCS. It is a
research project of the Southeast Regional
Carbon Sequestration Partnership (SECARB).
The SECARB partnership will demonstrate CO2
injection rate and storage capacity in the
Tuscaloosa-Woodbine geologic system that
stretches from Texas to Florida. The region has a
potential to store more than 200 billion tons of
CO2, equal to about 33 years of U.S. emissions
at the current level. Monitored injection began
in 2008.
Furthermore, in 2009, Governor Rick Perry
signed into law a bill that establishes a
regulatory framework for CCS in Texas, a
significant step in the advancement of the
process and technology in the state.

Green building
Texas is a leader in green building, an industry
that strives to reduce the energy use, water
consumption, and environmental impact of our
structures. Even in a down economy, green
building has found a place with energy
efficiency retrofits, and the buildings that are
being built often utilize green building
techniques. Green building in Texas is
encouraged by both economic and political
circumstances. Texans pay 56 percent more
each year for electricity than the average
American, so every kilowatt of energy conserved
in Texas is 56 percent more valuable.
Austin is a state and national leader in green
building, consistently ranking among the top 10
green production cities in the U.S. according to
many compiled rankings. Its municipal electric
utility, Austin Energy, has a robust and stringent
green building program and was awarded the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Climate
Protection Award in 2008. Furthermore, cities
across the state have been establishing and
implementing stricter building codes for energy
conservation. Major metropolitan areas, such
as Dallas, Houston and San Antonio have passed
stringent energy conservation building code
measures within the past year—with full
implementation poised for the coming months
and years. Austin, as part of the Pecan Street
Project, is considering changing its building
codes to accommodate residential plug-in
hybrid vehicle charging stations. The State
Energy Conservation Office (SECO) has also
begun a rulemaking process to increase
statewide building codes to the 2009
International Energy Conservation Code.

Transportation
With nearly 80,000 miles of highways and 50,000
bridges, the surface transportation network in
Texas is one of the largest in the country. The
metropolitan areas of the state continue to grow,
putting more pressure on existing
transportation infrastructure. Federal directives
for states designed to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions in the transportation sector present
opportunities in the green economy, such as
new techniques and materials used in highway
maintenance.
Economic forces and increasing congestion
have led to a growth in the development of
public transportation opportunities around the
state. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART)
system was the first light rail in the
Southwestern U.S., beginning service in 1996. It
Environmental Defense Fund / edf.org 9
plans extensive expansion of service over the
next few years, including connections to the
Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. In
2004, Houston’s light rail system came online.
The city began a 30-mile extension in 2008,
which is expected to be completed by 2012.
Austin is nearing completion of construction
and testing of its commuter rail system, and it is
expected to begin service in 2010. San Antonio’s
VIA metro bus system plans to add bus rapid
transit (BRT) to its service area by 2012. The
success of both light rail and BRT depends on
development around the stations for each mode
of transit. These developments, called transit-
oriented developments (TODs), present
opportunities for green projects such as
alternative energy production to power the
development.
Also, 2010 will see the first Plug-in Electric
Vehicles (PEVs) come to market. Growth in this
field is anticipated to be substantial, but may
take some time to develop. One of Austin’s
Pecan Street Project goals in creating the “utility
of the future” is the integration of PEVs in the
city’s utility planning, including residential and
municipal charging stations. Dallas and
Houston are exploring PEVs for their city fleets
and many local utilities have expressed support
for wider PEV integration. While the market
may take some time to grow, there will be
increased demand for automotive maintenance
workers who are familiar with the PEV engines
as well as electric technicians who could
maintain and repair charging stations.

Waste management
Waste management touches virtually every
industry—municipal, sewage, organic compost
and recyclable materials. More cities, especially
those experiencing growth, realize the urgent
need to address issues of waste management. In
2008, Austin began a single-stream recycling
program, which was contracted to a firm in San
Antonio for the near term. Houston has a
neighborhood-based recycling program, but
some major employers in the area, such as the
medical center hospitals and clinics and Reliant
Stadium and Minute Maid Park, have begun
significant recycling programs. The City of
Houston also has plans to extend its recycling
program to a city-wide program in the next few
years. Increased recycling, both through
awareness and city, county or state directives,
can lead to more employment opportunities in
collecting, sorting and processing waste and
recyclable materials.

recycling.html
Water Resources
Texas is the fastest growing state in the U.S. and
demands on our water system are at an all-time
high. Coupled with growth are problems such as
severe drought, which affected all or part of the
state in 2008 and 2009. San Antonio has been
the leader in the state in municipal water
conservation—even as the city has increased its
citizen base, its water use has remained
relatively constant since the 1980s. In 2009,
Mayor Phil Hardberger introduced Mission
Verde, a “green” economic development plan
that includes policies to further enhance water
management and arborist conservation efforts
and improve municipal wastewater recycling.
Other cities are also looking into wastewater
recycling as a solution, including dry areas in
West Texas. In 2007, the City of Austin set a goal
to reduce peak water demand by 10 percent over

10 years. Also, water conservation in the
electricity sector is a critical component in
Austin’s Pecan Street Project, which will begin
demonstration projects of potential
technologies in 2010.
Although cities use approximately one
quarter of the water in Texas, irrigated
agriculture consumes 60 percent and
manufacturing 10 percent. As supplies become
scarcer, increased conservation measures will be
necessary. Another issue for water is increased
water loss through leakage from old pipes, and
many Texas cities have policies to perform water
audits and replace old pipes in the coming
years, based on the age of pipes.

conservation and planning
Environmental planning has become more
common in city and urban planning projects
and offices, in both the public and private
sectors. As environmental protection has
become both a powerful marketing tool for
firms and an element of corporate
responsibility, demand has increased for
consultants who focus on limiting the
greenhouse emissions of their employers.
Regulation of carbon dioxide, being debated in
the U.S. Senate and discussed at the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, would set
new limits on greenhouse emissions, leading to
even more demand for consultants and
planners to help companies comply with new
regulations. Public and private sector job
growth in environmental compliance and
planning is expected to be significant.
As water supplies become scarcer, increased conservation measures will be necessary. Another issue for water is increased water loss through leakage from old pipes, and many Texas cities have policies to perform water audits and replace old pipes in the coming years, based on the age of pipes.

Apprenticeship Information
An apprenticeship is an entry-level job that pays
the employee while they learn a skilled craft or
trade. Most of the job training occurs during the
working hours, though classroom training may
also be required. The apprentice typically works
alongside a highly experienced teacher to
perform jobs and installations. The duration of
the apprenticeship is typically between three
and five years based on the skills and trade
being learned. At the start of the
apprenticeship, the worker may earn $10 to $20
per hour. Once completed, the apprentice-
turned-craftsman can earn more than $30 an
hour.
Most apprenticeship programs are either run
through a labor union, large company like an
electric utility, or a local college. Typically,
applicants to apprenticeship programs must be
18 years of age, in good physical health, possess
a high school diploma or a GED, and able to
read, write, and speak English.
Apprenticeships recognized and registered
by the U.S. Department of Labor Office of
Apprenticeship can be found at: http://
oa.doleta.gov. Data on the site is updated
monthly and can be searched by state and
county. The Texas Workforce Commission

Texas Green Jobs Guidebook52
Texas is home to world-class educational
institutions where students can learn valuable
skills that prepare them to enter the workforce.
Community colleges, trade schools, four-year
universities and graduate schools all offer
excellent programs to individuals looking to
learn about and advance in the green economy.
A sound education that gives an individual a
specialized skill set can make it easier to be
hired and promoted at the company or in the
field of choice. Surveys have shown that
employers in the green economy will look for
educational preparation in math, science and
technology, in addition to good problem solving
skills and hands-on training. Also, just as in any
other field, there will always be a need for
individuals with advanced training, including
the Master’s level or higher.
Four-year colleges, universities and graduate schools
Most four-year colleges and universities offer a
wide range of basic and advanced courses
within bachelor’s level and higher degree
programs to prepare students to work in the
green economy. Environmental studies and
science programs have been training workers in
environmental resource management fields,
including energy, waste and water, for decades.
Coursework in chemistry, biology, engineering,
math, geology and environmental science has
continued to be a main emphasis of the
required curriculum. For more information on
these schools and the programs they offer, many
resources are available on the Internet, through
career services offices at high schools and
colleges, or by contacting the schools directly.
Due to the breadth of such coursework offerings
and the limited scope of this Guidebook,
academic programs at four-year institutions are
not included.
Trade schools and programs
Texas is home to many specialty schools and
institutions that offer coursework tailored to
meet the requirements of a specific job class or
field. These programs allow students the
flexibility to complete a certificate or degree
program in the field of their choosing.
However, students may first want to identify
the type of green job they desire and
specifically tailor their concentration to meet
the demands of that job.
community colleges
The network of over 50 Texas community
colleges offers a diverse array of low-cost two-
year degree and certificate programs to
prepare students for green jobs. In addition to
the traditional sciences, many two-year
schools offer specialty degree and
apprenticeship programs designed to fill
specific green jobs niches. Community
colleges are also a good source for continuing
education to meet specific green economic
sector demands. A list of all the Texas
community colleges with identified specialty
programs beyond the traditional sciences of
chemistry, biology, math, physics, geography
and geology is included on the following pages.
Greater detail of certain major metropolitan
area colleges is included in the regional section
of this Guidebook.

Austin
The Austin-Round Rock metro area consists of
five counties, and is the 38th largest metro area
in the U.S. In 2007, the Austin Chamber of
Commerce released its five-year economic
development plan, Opportunity Austin 2.0, for
the Austin metro area. The plan specifically
noted the priority of attracting green businesses
to the area, such as manufacturers of solar
panels, fuel cells, wind turbines and electric
cars. To further this, in 2009, the Austin
Chamber began to coordinate with local
communities to improve green job education
and training. Also in 2009, Austin required
point-of-sale and point-of-lease home and
commercial energy audits, which created an
immediate need for trained professional home
auditors. Austin Energy, the city’s municipally-
owned utility, has been named the top “green”
utility in the U.S. by the National Renewable
Energy Lab for six straight years, and Austin
ranked 13th on the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency’s list of the top 25 cities with
Energy Star-qualified buildings. The Austin area
has several initiatives underway to improve the
green economy in the region, including:
• Austin Climate Protection Program
• Pecan Street Project—to design the
energy system of the future, including a
smart grid system and water
conservation measures, using Austin as
a clean energy laboratory
• University of Texas at Austin projects:
The Center for Commercialization of
Electric Technologies and the Clean
Energy Incubator
• Texas Foundation for Innovative
Communities—founded in
conjunction with the Texas Clean
Energy Park to attract green jobs to
the region
Austin is the home to many high-tech
companies as well as the University of Texas and
the headquarters for state government.

Dallas/Fort Worth
The Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex consists of 12
counties and is the ninth largest metropolitan
area in the U.S. The City of Dallas has recently
begun to increase its efforts to encourage the
purchase of hybrid vehicles and renewable
energy resources. Currently, the City is already
12th among U.S. renewable energy purchasers.
In October 2009, the new Dallas green building
code went into effect (full implementation in
2011). The Metroplex already ranks high in
energy efficient buildings, placing 5th on the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s list of
the top 25 cities with Energy Star-qualified
buildings. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART)
rail line is expected to undergo expansion, and a
voluntary public-private partnership has further
initiatives to limit sprawl and increase green
space across 16 North Texas communities.

San Antonio
The San Antonio-New Braunfels metro area
consists of eight counties and is the 30th largest
metropolitan area in the U.S. In 2009, San
Antonio’s mayor announced Mission Verde, a
plan to create a 21st century economy with an
emphasis on green jobs, centered on energy
efficiency and renewable energy investments.
Mission Verde includes large-scale
weatherization and retrofit programs for
residences and city buildings, renewable energy
generation and storage, high-performance
building codes, a multi-tech venture capital
fund to attract and support new technology
industries to the city, increased utility energy
efficiency programs, and a green jobs program.
San Antonio is also a U.S. Department of Energy
Solar America City, which has led to a plan to
reduce barriers to the commercialization of

and to make the city a leader in distributed
energy. Water management and conservation
are critical components of San Antonio’s
environmental policies, as much of the region
relies solely on the Edwards Aquifer for drinking
water. Mission Verde has placed an emphasis
on creating green jobs relating to water
conservation, including water auditors,
landscape, arborist and irrigation workers, and
wastewater recycling and treatment operators.
The San Antonio metro area is the tourism
capital of the state and a major center of military
and related industries.
