MIT researchers map the energy transition’s effects on jobs

A new map shows which U.S. counties have the highest concentration of jobs that could be affected by the transition to renewable energy, based on new research by Christopher Knittel, the George P. Shultz Professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management, and Kailin Graham, of MIT’s Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research. Counties in blue are less potentially affected by the energy transition, and counties in red are more potentially affected.
