Jobs in Demand....In The Power Sector

White-hot jobs are opening up in the power sector.

"These aren't just hot jobs, they're sizzling jobs," said Christine Real de Azua, spokeswoman for the American Wind Energy Association. Wind energy grew by 45 percent last year. "We need every type of job candidate."

Indeed, with oil topping $100 per barrel, expect power industry jobs to explode in the next 10 years -- and not just in petroleum or the electric company. Want to repair wind turbines, manage a nuclear reactor or install solar panels? The jobs await.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and energy leaders reveal what fields are expected to grow, and they are listed below with projected growth levels through 2016, salary data, and what you need to get a related job.

Engineers
11 percent projected growth
$44,790-$145,600 annually, depending on specialty

"We're experiencing a comeback in 'dirty jobs,'" said Chris McCormick, partner and head of the energy division of venture capital firm Landmark Ventures. "While a few years ago, what we wanted were the 'clean' jobs in computer engineering, now we're back to the types of engineers who get their hands dirty with chemistry and broad-application engineering."

Chemical engineers who work with biofuels, electrical engineers who design power plants, mechanical engineers who find better ways to capture air and wind energy, and nuclear engineers who make plants run more efficiently will all be in high demand -- with salaries to match. While some engineers, like chemical engineers, may need a PhD to do their jobs, most others, like environmental engineers, only require a bachelor's degree in physics or engineering, according to the BLS.

Nuclear Power Reactor Operators
11 percent projected growth
$35,590-$75,240 annually

"When I got out of college, people told me, 'Go do other things.' The conventional wisdom was that nuclear power was going to go away," said Carol Berrigan, senior director for industry infrastructure at the Nuclear Energy Institute. "But now, with some regulatory changes, we have something like nine applications out there for 16 new nuclear power plants in the next few years."

Which jobs will grow fastest? Think Homer Simpson, but with more computer knowledge and less buffoonery. On top of the billions of dollars the industry is spending on new construction, the field's employees are aging: In the next 10 years, half of all nuclear reactor operators are expected to retire. You don't need to have an engineering degree for these jobs, but you should expect extensive on-the-job training and classroom instruction as well as licensing exams, according to the BLS.

Industrial Machinery Mechanic
9 percent projected growth
$42,350 median annual income

Someone's got to install the solar panels and repair wind turbines, and industrial machinery mechanics are often the ones who get the jobs. In solar, Tioga Energy's Executive Vice President Preston Roper said the biggest demand is for solar installers.

Both Roper and Real de Azua said local community colleges are the places to go to get the training necessary for the jobs. Many are offering specialized training in solar or wind repair work.

Skilled Trade Workers
Electricians: 7 percent projected growth
$44,780 median annual income

Line Workers: 7 percent projected growth
$52,570 median annual income

Welders: 5 percent projected growth
$32,270 median annual income

These workers repair the lines that bring power to your home and build and repair power plant structures. Want one of these jobs? Usually you don't need post-high school education, but you will need an apprenticeship through a union or other skilled trade group. The programs usually take about four years

America's Highest-Paying Blue-Collar Jobs

Hard labor pays. In the latest list of America's highest-paying blue-collar jobs, the workers earning the greatest amounts of money are not afraid to use their hands and get a little dirty.

Over time, these jobs are likely to increase in demand and value.

According to the latest Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) collected by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), "elevator installers and repairers" are the highest-paid blue-collar workers in the country. They earn a median hourly wage of $32.69, or about $68,000 annually. The job involves commercial and private projects varying in scale. The work could call for a dumbwaiter installation or passenger elevator and escalator fix. Nevada is the highest-paying state for this occupation, though the information on that varies

The International Union of Elevator Constructors, composed of 26,000 members, reported the highest-paying elevators installer and repairer jobs were in San Francisco, Calif., which Bill Stanley, director of organizing for the IUEC, said makes sense given the high cost of living. Elevator installers and repairers earn at least $10,000 more a year than the job in the second slot on this list.

On a semi-annual basis, this OES program conducts a mail survey designed to produce estimates of employment and wages for specific occupations. The OES program collects data on wage and salary workers in nonfarm establishments in order to produce employment and wage estimates for about 800 occupations. Data from self-employed persons are not collected and are not included in the estimates.

Therefore, private contractors won't be included in the second-highest-paying blue-collar job title, "electrical and electronics repairers, powerhouse, substation and relay" workers, who earn a median $28.35 an hour, or $58,970 a year. There are 23,320 of these electricians included in the BLS survey and the top-paying state is Vermont.

Locomotive engineers are third, earning a median hourly wage of $27.65, or $57,520 a year. There are 41,760 of these workers included in the BLS data, and the top-paying state is Nevada.

The jobs listed as blue collar here are those typically paid on an hourly basis and are labor intensive. With the dramatic downturn in the U.S. economy, a once robust job market has shrunk due largely to the depressed housing market. These blue-collar jobs have dried up significantly in the past year, though the damage has had a ripple effect in all markets.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Labor Department said the nation's construction jobs fell by 34,000 in May. Since an employment peak in September 2006, construction has lost 475,000 jobs. Over the month, employment declined by 12,000 among residential specialty trade contractors and in construction of buildings.

Gus Faucher, director of macroeconomics at Moody's Economy.com, said overall construction job losses have just about bottomed out. Construction jobs on the commercial side, which tend to be the well-paying ones, are stronger as businesses are still spending money on development.

Faucher said there will still be strong growth for commercial jobs with development in the Southwest, in particular Texas, and the Southeast.

The nation's unemployment rate jumped to 5.5% in May from 5% in April. It was the biggest monthly increase since February 1986 and the rise leaves unemployment at its highest level since October 2004. May marked the fifth straight month of jobs losses. The number of U.S. jobs shrank by a smaller-than-expected 49,000. The next jobs data will be released July 3. Economists forecast an unemployment rate of 5.4% and a loss of 50,000 nonfarm payroll jobs.

Despite the gloomy outlook for the near future, the big picture is promising for America's blue-collar workers, with the BLS projecting an employment increase for all of the highest-paying jobs on this list by 2016.
