Who We Are
Clean Power Alliance (CPA) is Southern California’s locally operated non-profit default electricity provider for 32 communities within Los Angeles and Ventura counties and the 5th largest electricity company in the State of California. We provide clean renewable energy at competitive rates to over three million residents and businesses through approximately one million customer accounts.
What You’ll Do
The Electrification Program Manager will be responsible for implementing CPA’s Building and Transportation Electrification programs. This is a challenging opportunity to play a key role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions through the building and transportation sectors.
The Building Electrification program will initially focus on incentivizing municipalities to adopt local codes that encourage buildings to receive more of their power from electricity than natural gas. The Transportation Electrification program will initially focus on providing incentives to non-residential customers to install electric vehicle (EV) chargers that are available for public use. In addition to planning and administering these programs, the Electrification Program Manager will work on regional and state policies that align with the program objectives and overall sectoral decarbonization goals.
Who You’ll Work With
The Electrification Program Manager will work under the direct supervision of the Director of Customer Programs, and will work closely with CPA’s Customer Programs, Power Planning & Procurement, Regulatory Affairs, External Affairs, Data, and Marketing teams. The Electrification Program Manager will closely collaborate with local governments, advocacy organizations, contractors and developers, as well as outside consultants, customers and community leaders to effectively implement the programs.
