Overview
PowerLines is a new national nonprofit organization that aims to modernize the utility regulatory system to accelerate affordable, reliable, and clean energy for American consumers. It focuses on state public utilities commissions (PUCs), which play a critical role in determining how much people pay for utility bills, how utilities invest in different types of energy, and where new energy projects are built. These 200 commissioners oversee more than $200 billion in utility spending each year and have significant influence over the future of our energy system. PowerLines seeks to advance the public interest through effective utility regulation and envisions a world where people are empowered to shape energy decisions that lead to stronger communities.
To deliver on this mission, PowerLines is seeking a Senior Advisor to advise the organization on its strategic growth. The ideal candidate for this role will be a leader or expert in the energy or utility regulation space who holds relationships with high-level stakeholders across the public, private, NGO, and/or academic sectors and is passionate about making a positive impact on our energy systems. As an early member of the PowerLines team, this person will be able to play a critical role in shaping the trajectory of PowerLines’ work and contribute outsized impact in an underaddressed problem space. This position is an independent contractor role and will report to the Founder and Executive Director.
