Summary/Abstract: Like in many other countries, also in Poland the positive employment effects of renewable energy technologies remain an important argument for supporting these technologies. This is particularly important in the local context, when a renewable energy installation may solve specific problems of a particular community. In the paper a method of employment impact assessment of renewable energy sources at the local level is shown. The results of the study which is going to be conducted based on this method will be useful for local decision-makers to assess the potential employment impact of planned renewable energy installations.
