Mayor's Office of Employment Development has Chosen 8 Industries for Workforce Development.  This Includes: 

Sustainable Energy and Environmentally-driven Services

         "Today’s so-called “green collar” jobs are ones that focus on either the conservation of energy and natural resources, the restoration of the environment, or the mitigation of pollution. Thus, sustainable energy occupations could relate to the installation of green roofs, the auditing of energy use for an office building, the installation and/or manufacturing related to renewable energy sources (solar, geothermal, etc.), the installation of energy efficient retrofits in existing industrial facilities, or new construction utilizing “green” building practices. Environmentally-driven occupations would include those in:  brownfields restoration, urban agriculture, the recycling of obsolete computers or other IT equipment, or those related to the de-construction of homes and the recycling of select building materials. These green collar jobs could offer many Baltimore residents the chance to be productively engaged in the workforce and thus better able to support themselves and their families financially."
