As a green career consultant, one of the questions I hear most frequently is what’s hot in cleantech? In greentech? In renewable energy?<\/p>\n

Although I can give green career changers my impression, I always encourage them to connect with experts in their fields of choice to understand the hottest trends and future directions. In my mind, those who live, breathe, and work in a field are going to know much more than someone looking at it from the outside.<\/p>\n

Recently I clicked on a link from Inside Cleantech<\/a> by the Cleantech Group to discover a gold mine of information for green job seekers who are getting up to speed on cleantech.

The Cleantech Group, a membership organization of investors, cleantech companies and organizations, has tracked the cleantech sector to discover business opportunities for investment purposes. Given the dollars they have on the line, I’m willing to bet they’ve put everything they’ve got behind their research.<\/p>\n

They’ve created keyword clouds that can show you at a glance what they consider to be hot!<\/p>\n
