Methodology<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
The Massachusetts 2024 Clean Energy Industry Report uses publicly available data from the 2024 U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER) on Massachusetts energy employment produced by BW Research Partnership on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). These public data are refined and customized for Massachusetts based on additional analyses conducted by BW Research Partnership on behalf of the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center. The full 2024 USEER report can be found at: www.energy.gov\/policy\/us-energy-employment-jobs-report-useer<\/a>.<\/a>

The 2024 USEER survey in Massachusetts was administered by telephone with approximately 28,100<\/strong> outbound calls in Massachusetts, as well as by web, with more than 11,800<\/strong> emails sent to potential participants across the state.

In total, 1,088<\/strong> business establishments in Massachusetts participated in the survey effort, with 414<\/strong> providing full responses to the survey. These responses were used to develop incidence rates among industries as well as to apportion employment across various industry categories in ways currently not provided by state and federal labor market information agencies. The margin of error is +\/- 4.80 percent at a 95<\/strong> percent confidence level.

All MassCEC metrics since 2010 and the MassCEC Spotlight Metrics were compiled from awardee data and other internal data sources.
