The Arizona Daily Sun reports the projections rely on some interesting assumptions. For instance, the research assumes APS will close down the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, despite a proposal from the Arizona Corporation Commission that would include a carvout for nuclear, presumably to help APS preserve its stake in the facility. The research was also not peer-reviewed, and the Daily Sun tracked down another ASU researcher whose own research showed no correlation between job losses and renewables and was peer-reviewed.
