Position
Global Energy Monitor is seeking an experienced Program Director for our Renewables and Other Power Program. The Program Director provides strategic leadership and managerial oversight for the department, and reports directly to Global Energy Monitor’s Associate Director. The Renewables and Other Power team's research program focuses on producing global facility-level datasets that reflect the current and future utility-scale solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal, bioenergy, and nuclear landscapes. The Renewables and other Power Program currently has the following trackers: Global Solar Power Tracker, Global Wind Power Tracker, Global Hydropower Tracker, Global Geothermal Tracker, Global Bioenergy Power Tracker and the Global Nuclear Power Tracker.
The Challenge
According to the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC), we have less than a decade to make massive and unprecedented changes in the global economy to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. To meet that challenge, Global Energy Monitor is creating trackers and other tools to provide detailed information on energy facilities, sponsors, and financing.
