Diversity in Renewables Report
At a time when the world is collectively working to reduce carbon emissions for the future of our planet, the renewables energy sector is undoubtedly booming. An explosion of innovative large-scale projects across the US and beyond has created unprecedented demand for talent.

The discussion and key recommendations are summarised within this report.
