A paper presented at the COBRA Conference in New Delhi on 10-12 September 2013. Looks at job creation in relation to energy renovation work of the housing stock. The shift from new-build to renovation will have considerable effects on employment in the construction industry and the qualifications that are required by the workforce. A new investment programme in the housing sector could not only improve the energy performance of the sector but create 100.000?s of valuable jobs at a time when these are sorely needed.
