Duke Energy Engineering Jobs in Georgia (NOW HIRING)

Energy Impact Partners (EIP) is a global investment platform leading the charge toward a cleaner, more reliable, more affordable energy future. We bring together 80+ of the world’s most forward-looking energy and industrial companies with bold entrepreneurs to advance energy innovation. EIP has over $4 billion in assets under management and invests globally across venture, growth, and credit.

We’re seeking a Vice President to lead the Power Supply practice in our Research & Innovation (R&I) group. The VP will be responsible for all 3 pillars of the R&I mission within the Power Supply sector: (1) convening and managing relationships with the relevant operating leaders in our global corporate partner network, (2) developing proprietary market insights that make us better investors and help our partners see around corners, and (3) supporting the commercialization and growth of technologies in the EIP portfolio.

The VP and their team will cover: nuclear, geothermal, wind, solar, storage, gas generation, and power market operations, among other related topics. They’ll engage with a coalition of dozens of leading utilities such as Southern Company, Xcel Energy, Fortis, and Duke Energy and support a portfolio of leading innovators such as Form Energy, Zap Energy, and Powin.

This is a multifaceted role for a multifaceted person. We’re looking for an insatiably curious, analytically‑minded candidate with excellent relationship and communication skills; commercial savvy; the ability to operate in a chaotic environment with competing priorities; and deep knowledge and passion for the power vertical. This role is based out of our Atlanta office, but we will consider exceptional candidates in other locations.

Now is an unprecedented moment for rapid innovation in the power sector across generation, transmission, and distribution, as utilities and IPPs face 100s of GWs of large load in their queues while managing to ambitious goals around decarbonization, affordability, and resiliency. This position, a bridge between the planners and operators of the current power supply asset base and the ecosystem of emerging technology developers, is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to leave your stamp on this transformation.
