UK-India join hands as a force for good, holding an online meeting to share key insights from a study on ‘Future job roles in solar water pumping sector’. The study was commissioned by FCDO (erstwhile DFID), Govt. of UK, under the Skills for Jobs Programme, in partnership with Skill Council for Green Jobs (SCGJ) to help identify new age and emerging job roles in the solar water pumping sector which would further guide development of National Occupational Standards. KPMG was the implementation partner to carry out the study.
The study is based on secondary research and primary consultations with the industry partners to identify the emerging areas in the field of solar water pumping that would require skilled workforce. The study identifies the types of jobs likely to be in demand in next 3 -5 years, along with a cumulative skilled workforce number, for which there is a need to develop training standards. The analysis takes into account the employment potential in the sector based on government initiatives. The study also captures the expertise present in UK in the solar water pumping sector and how it can be leveraged through mutually beneficial partnerships.
