How much of this occupation’s work can be materially affected by current AI systems.
How likely exposure is to translate into reduced human demand.
Includes provisional estimates for AI adoption pressure and labour-market resilience. How this is measured
Confidence reflects task coverage, mapping and capability-evidence quality, and how much of the score rests on provisional inputs.
What is driving the score?
Occupation scores are built from the task mix—not a single prediction about a job title.
Where AI can do more
Routine, digitized, and highly repeatable tasks face the greatest pressure.
- Calculate potential solar resources or solar array production for a particular site considering issues such as climate, shading, and roof orientation.73
- Prepare proposals, quotes, contracts, or presentations for potential solar customers.71
- Gather information from prospective customers to identify their solar energy needs.71
- Generate solar energy customer leads to develop new accounts.71
Where people still matter
These tasks score lowest on automation feasibility—physical presence, judgement, accountability and real-world variability all resist end-to-end automation.
- Prepare or review detailed design drawings, specifications, or lists related to solar installations.01
- Calculate potential solar resources or solar array production for a particular site considering issues such as climate, shading, and roof orientation.02
- Assess sites to determine suitability for solar equipment, using equipment such as tape measures, compasses, and computer software.03
- Provide customers with information, such as quotes, orders, sales, shipping, warranties, credit, funding options, incentives, or tax rebates.04
- Select solar energy products, systems, or services for customers based on electrical energy requirements, site conditions, price, or other factors.05

Structural factors are kept separate from raw capability so you can see what actually resists automation. Adoption pressure and labour-market resilience are still provisional models—25% of this occupation’s replacement-risk weight rests on them.
