The shift to sustainable energy systems demands a staff with the abilities and know-how to oversee new procedures and technology. This study uses a systematic literature review (SLR) of studies that were published between 2021 and 2024 to investigate methods for closing the skills gap in the energy industry. A thorough search and assessment of pertinent research was conducted across many large academic databases, such as Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The significance of ongoing professional development, the incorporation of digital competences, and the function of cooperative industry-academy collaborations in workforce development are among the major topics that have been recognized. The results demonstrate that targeted expenditures in education and training that are adapted to new technology needs are essential for a successful energy transition. The study also shows that multidisciplinary skills are becoming more and more important, and that adaptive learning frameworks are necessary to stay up with the quick changes in the sector. One of the main conclusions is that in order to close the skills gap and guarantee a workforce skilled in sustainable energy for the future, a multifaceted strategy that combines corporate commitment, legislative assistance, and creative educational approaches is necessary. For policymakers, educators, and business executives seeking to improve worker competencies in the changing energy market, this research offers insightful information.
