Summary/Abstract: The sector of renewable sources in Macedonia is at the very beginning of development. Apart from the potentials it offers for obtaining electricity, which are not negligible, there are also opportunities for economic development and the increase of jobs. There are many mechanisms nowadays for exploiting the potential offered by the sun, wind, thermal waters, etc., and the focus, apart from being put to their use, is also put to the realization of their economic profitability. Even Macedonia is slowly following this trend of seeking ways to promote RES, so according to the document "Adequate National Contributions to Climate Change" that Macedonia prepared as a contribution to the new global agreement on climate change that was adopted at the international conference in Paris in December 2015, with the application of climate change mitigation measures, as many as 6,000 "green" jobs can be expected by 2030. With the various RES (photovoltaics, wind, biomass, hydro-, geothermal systems and waste gas plants), it is possible to create about 1300 new jobs in Macedonia by 2030. The installation of solar thermal collectors could create around 600 jobs by 2030. This will not only revive the "green" industries in Macedonia, but also, according to the MANU document, emissions will be reduced by between 22% and 33% in 2030. Of these 6000 jobs, the largest percentage belongs to employment related to passive houses (about 2500 jobs), followed by solar power plants (about 1000 jobs), as well as solar thermal collectors and building renovation, each sector with about 600–700 jobs. places.
