The impact of wind power consumption on the labor market was analyzed for a panel of ten European Union countries in a period from 1990 to 2015. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag Methodology was used in order to decompose the total effect of wind power consumption on the labor market in its short- and long-run components. The empirical results indicate that wind power consumption has a positive impact of 0.0191 on the labor market, and oil consumption does not cause any impact whatsoever.
