Duties
DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy is looking for a dynamic, creative, and experienced executive to serve as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Renewable Energy (DAS-RE). EERE works to accelerate the research, development, demonstration, and deployment of technologies and solutions to equitably transition America to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions economy-wide by 2050. EERE has three technical pillars: Renewable Energy, Sustainable Transportation, and Buildings and Industry. The Renewable Energy pillar is comprised of four offices: Solar Energy Technologies (SETO), Wind Energy Technologies (WETO), Water Power Technologies (WPTO), and Geothermal Technologies (GTO). The Renewable Energy pillar is a $700M organization that formulates and directs programs designed to increase the production and utilization of renewable energy through RDD&D and technology transfer.
The position reports to the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary and also works with the Assistant Secretary. DAS-RE is supported by the four technology offices and by senior staff who provide expert technical and program management advice. DAS-RE and their senior staff team have responsibilities that include integration of renewable power into the grid; clean energy policies; siting, permitting, and deployment of renewable energy and distributed energy technologies; and establishment of uniform and effective engagement with the National Laboratories. DAS-RE also integrates and coordinates activities among EERE's technology programs, EERE's Golden Field Office, and other DOE offices and Federal agencies.
As the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Renewable Energy you will:
- Establish a forward-leaning vision, set priorities, and develop technical and investment strategies for a national renewable energy program. In this effort, you will direct development of technical content for the Presidential budget requests for renewable energy programs and EERE's grid modernization activities, totaling in the hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
- Work with office directors in SETO, WETO, WPTO, and GTO to formulate the vision for Renewable Energy programs and direct the identification, development, and analysis of technical programs in the renewable energy field, ensuring that program plans meet the technical needs of the Nation and are complementary to private industry R&D activities.
- Manage the work of highly qualified technical and scientific program managers and office directors in SETO, WETO, WPTO, and GTO. This includes overseeing complex scientific and market studies and analyses involving senior scientific and managerial representatives from government and the private sector and advising the Assistant Secretary of the findings and associated recommendations.
- Represent DOE, EERE, and the Assistant Secretary as a senior scientific and management official in meetings with representatives of domestic and foreign governments concerning joint technology programs and negotiate arrangements pertaining to program logic, pace, and funding. Provide leadership in dealing successfully with high-level officials within the Federal Government, state and local governments, Congress, industry, and other stakeholder organizations.
- Oversee periodic or annual assessments of deliverables, accomplishments, and performance of renewable energy programs in EERE and the National Laboratories.
- Work with EERE's senior leadership team to formulate DOE and EERE policies. Assure the effective management of Renewable Energy programs, activities, and resources by developing, implementing, and/or monitoring DOE-wide and EERE policies and processes. Work collaboratively with EERE leadership and staff to improve planning, budgeting and evaluation processes, and management and information systems.
- Provide technical and administrative supervision over subordinate organizations (SETO, WETO, WPTO, and GTO) headed by SES and/or GS-15 or equivalent members and resolve problems stemming from coordination of joint activities between organizations. Provide leadership around thoughtful management of office resources. Work with senior DOE officials and staff to identify and resolve technical, institutional, and managerial issues impacting programs.
- Determine the financial and personnel resources needed to achieve mission objectives, identify the need for major organizational improvements, develop the requisite plans, and direct implementing actions. Oversee recruitment of senior managers and technical experts necessary to ensure program success.
- Negotiate with and secure the cooperation of program managers and staff to accept and implement recommendations where proposals involve substantial resources, require changes in established procedures, or may be in competition with other agency priorities.
- Promote diversity within EERE. Instill a sense of community throughout the organization to create a work environment in which all staff members are fully supported.
