Phoenix Technology Jobs Created by Alternative Energy

The influx of renewable-energy companies interested in Arizona could result in a slew of new Phoenix technology jobs and many other high-tech positions throughout the state.

According to a recent article from The Arizona Republic, applications have been submitted for more than 80 solar power and wind power plans throughout the state, which together are valued at tens of billions of dollars. If approved, those projects would create thousands of jobs and bring in an unprecedented amount of revenue and other economic benefits.

Of the 80 proposed solar and wind projects in Arizona, all the solar plants together would produce 13,622 megawatts of power, while all of the wind plants together would produce 9,194 megawatts of power.
