This role will be focused on supporting and eventually leading our regulatory work, particularly at the Public Utilities Commission (PUC), a state agency tasked with overseeing utilities. The core of this role is strategy, such as convincing decisionmakers to take the actions we think will help reach out state’s climate goals sooner; aligning other parties at the PUC on our positions and finding common paths forward; and identifying pathways for actions outside the PUC that nonetheless impact utilities and/or will hinder or promote getting more electric vehicles in use.
Specific tasks will include: reviewing utilities’ electric vehicle charging programs and plans; figuring out what’s important to focus on within those plans (and what might be missing); writing comments with a small coalition; and appearing in front of the PUC to advocate for our positions. This role will also support a TBD electric vehicle campaign in 2025, and become the policy and technical lead at Fresh Energy on charging and vehicle electrification, especially for personal vehicles. This role is highly collaborative, and will facilitate discussions among our coalition partners and other interested groups.
