Renewable energy : a booming sector

The renewable energy sector is experiencing significant growth, both globally and locally. This expansion is fueled by the transition to more sustainable energy sources, environmental awareness, and technological advances. This transition is a major challenge which therefore requires an integrated approach taking into account environmental, economic, social and regulatory aspects. The growth of the renewable energy sector is explained by a constant increase in energy production from sources such as solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, hydraulic and marine energy.
 

Energetic transition

The transition to renewable energy sources is a major driver of employment, with many countries adopting policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase the share of renewable energy in their energy mix.
 

Job opportunities

Employment in this sector encompasses a variety of occupations, including renewable energy engineers, specialist technicians, R&D researchers, system installers, energy efficiency experts, and consulting professionals. The renewable energy industry is characterized by strong technological innovation. Industry professionals are constantly called upon to develop new technologies, improve the efficiency of existing systems and explore innovative solutions. This sector professionals require specialized training in areas such as engineering, science, energy management, and clean technology. The renewable energy engineering training offered by our school allows you to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to practice the following professions: renewable energy development manager, renewable energy project manager, renewable energy business manager, design office engineer renewable energies, R&D research engineer in renewable energies, energy consulting engineer, building energy engineer (non-exhaustive list).
