I'm a Project/Technical Installations Manager for a Borehole drilling company. I deal with design and specification of Ground-source Heatpump systems, solar thermal, underfloor heating, and with waterwell pumping & filtration design and specification. (ok I do do a lot of foruming and facebook, but OFFICIALLY I do design and shit)
Renewables is DEFINITELY only going up. The biggest problem with the heat industry is the government dangling a huge financial carrot just out of reach and fannying about making it available, ruining confidence in the marketplace. But even if that doesn't land, the 2020 targets represent a massive growth in the renewables industry; I'd get involved now whilst you can. As Niall said, get an apprenticeship, get qualifications and you should find yourself in a very good place over the next few years!
