An energy commission specialist can be a very rewarding green career. As our energy landscape changes, special energy commissions are started within counties and cities. In many instances these specialists are paid less, but it can be a very good stepping stone. A bachelor's degree in engineering or political science will serve you very well if you are looking to start this green career. A degree will cost around $8 to $20 thousand a year.
