A job in the green energy sector is likely to be high-paying. In Europe and around the world, renewable energy project managers are already earning up to PLN 100,000. Euros per year. And in the USA, the high demand for energy system cybersecurity analysts has set their earnings at PLN 138,000. total dollars per year.
These professions are still being established in Poland, but recruitment will start quickly and with the strong global competition, there is no reason why the salary offered will be significantly different from foreign standards.
High earnings in new professions are only just arriving in Poland
The global energy transition will bring significant changes to employment in the green energy sector. There will be new specialties and professions, which are currently in their infancy in Poland.
An analysis of how the energy sector will change and how to prepare for a career in this industry has been prepared by the National Business Observatory of Brazil. On its basis, Personnel Service experts pointed out: possible career directions in the green energy sector, which is becoming more attractive both in terms of the number of jobs and salaries.
The Brazilian National Business Observatory has developed a Labor Market Forecast Model to better understand the changes that are taking place.
This model estimates the demand for qualified workers in the future by analyzing the evolution of technology, identifying new professions and recommending renewal and vocational education. The peer-reviewed study is based on the opinions of experts from the renewable energy industry and academia.
– Adapting to the needs of the dynamically changing labor market is a big challenge. Especially in a world that is being shaped by artificial intelligence before our eyes, and climate issues are becoming increasingly important. This is a challenge for young people who have to decide on their professional career, but also for those who are already working, because they should continuously update their skills – says Krzysztof Inglot, labor market expert from the Personnel Service.
– It is also worth following studies such as those of the National Business Observatory of Brazil to find out which direction will improve, which sectors will increase the demand for workers and which skills will be in demand – said the an expert
New professions and competitive employment: what and how much
New professions in the green energy sector are and will be created worldwide. And although it is impossible to predict in detail all the roles that will be brought about by innovation, it is already possible to identify several specialties that will develop dynamically.
Among them are pexperts in energy storage, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, microgrids and distributed energy systems, as well as monitoring the performance of wind farms and anemometric towers.
From data from the Renewable Energy Institute (REI) show that managers of renewable energy projects can expect income in the PLN 53,000-94,000 range. total euro per year, and renewable energy engineers up to 70,000. total euro.

In addition, according to glasdoor.com US Department of Energy program analysts earn up to $143,000. total dollars per year. And asset managers in this sector, who will be of great importance in adapting to the changing energy system, receive a salary in the range PLN 115,000-184,000. total dollars per year.
With the development of new technologies, there is a demand for energy system cybersecurity analysts who earn up to PLN 138,000. total dollars per year.
In Poland, these positions are just being created.
Prospects for new professions with high earnings in Poland
The green energy sector in Poland is already developing. According to data from Polskie Sieci Elektroenergetyczne, electricity production in June 2024 increased by 9.52% compared to June last year. Wind farms contributed 9.13% to energy production, while other renewable sources contributed 18.28%.
These changes are related to the new EU regulation, which states that by 2030, 42.5% of the energy used in the EU should come from renewable sources. The directive also includes an indicative and ambitious target of 45%, which aims to mobilize Member States to speed up the implementation of green transitions.
Jobs related to energy transformation in Poland mainly concern photovoltaic panel installers and service technicians, whose average salary is around PLN 8.6 thousand. Full PLN, according to data from the Jooble portal.
It is worth adding that consultants and advisors are needed to sell such solutions on the private and business markets. A photovoltaics dealer gets about PLN 7.4 thousand. Full PLN per month (Jooble). The importance of renewable energy sources also requires IT experts who can create applications and databases adapted to the electricity market.
The planned construction of nuclear power plants in Poland will open up new opportunities on the labor market. Each such power plant can employ up to a thousand people, including mechanics, programmers, service technicians, physicists and engineers.
However, the development of electric car charging infrastructure will create new ones jobs for installers, especially in new buildings, which must meet EU standards for charge points.
– According to the Global Energy Talent Index (GETI) report, a quarter of workers in the world’s renewable energy sector received a significant pay increase last year, which is the result of a global push to adopt renewable technologies and resource costs fall – says Krzysztof Inglot.
– Governments around the world, including the UK with an aid program worth £285 million, are supporting funding for renewable energy projects, leading to an increase in jobs in the sector. As the industry continues to grow, that salary is likely to continue to rise, reflecting the growing demand for trained workers, the same will be true in Poland – summarizing Krzysztof Inglot from the Personnel Service.
