We estimate 9 clean energy and 2 fossil fuel industry employment multipliers. We find $1 million spending creates 7.49 FTE jobs in renewables, 7.72 in EE. Fossil fuel industries support 2.65 FTE jobs per $1 million spending. We show how to create a “synthetic” industry such as EE or RE using I-O tables. The synthetic industry approach is transparent and easily replicable.
