The U.S. has been building so many solar farms that companies can’t find enough people to install the panels. By 2033, the number of solar installers is expected to increase by 48%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Even if those labor force growth projections pan out, the industry is still likely to face a shortage of experts with the right skills.
