Compensation: $100,000.00 - $120,000.00 per year About Us Future Energy Enterprises is a majority woman-owned business with experience with all aspects of energy efficiency program design and administration for business, commercial, industrial, public sector and residential customers.    Utilities, businesses and others are challenged to meet their energy needs cost-effectively and cleanly due to shifting energy costs, changes in energy supply resource mix, localized capacity constraints, technological advances, as well as overarching climate change policies. Traditional energy supply resources, such as coal-fired generation facilities, produce emissions linked to global climate change and are increasingly costly to construct. Energy efficiency is now recognized as a cost-effective alternative to meet energy needs without the climate change impacts produced by carbon-based generation resources.   Future Energy Enterprises develops and supports programs to ensure program administrators achieve their goals with cost-effective and clean energy resources, including energy efficiency, conservation, demand response, and renewable energy. Clean energy resources can reduce costs, increase customer and employee satisfaction, and significantly reduce climate change impacts from energy use.   Company Values Be Respectful /Kind:  Treat others as you’d like to be treated.
