        abstract = {The study examines the impact of training and development on job satisfaction within the solar energy sector in Uttar Pradesh, focusing on a comparison between public and private sector employees. Data were collected from 100 respondents with 50 from each sector being employed in selected companies used solely for sampling purposes. The research does not evaluate individual organizational performance but focuses on sectoral analysis. A combination of statistical tools including correlation, regression analysis, descriptive statistics, and t-tests was used to analyse the data. Findings indicate a strong positive relationship between training and development initiatives and job satisfaction in both sectors. However, public sector employees reported higher and more consistent levels of satisfaction compared to their private sector counterparts.
The t-test results confirmed that the differences between the two sectors are statistically significant. Based on these findings, the study recommends the implementation of sector-specific training and development programs aimed at improving employee satisfaction and overall performance. Emphasis should be placed on tailored strategies that address the unique challenges and expectations within both public and private organizations in the renewable energy domain.},
