Responsibilities:

In this role, you will leverage your experience in developing utility scale renewable projects and structuring off-take agreements to drive Heirloom’s energy procurement.

 You will have an intimate knowledge of national energy markets, especially ERCOT, MISO and SPP and bring a deep understanding of wholesale market dynamics. 

You will have a detailed understanding of interconnection queue processes and timelines, challenges and opportunities around wind and solar development and commodity hedging strategies.

 You will work with local utilities, independent power producers and regional transmission operators to help Heirloom structure energy contracts that meet our exacting needs around renewable content, additionality, flexibility and cost. 

Your experience in renewable energy project development will inform Heirloom’s ability to work with third party developers to help deliver new utility scale projects that meet Heirloom’s growing energy needs by 2028 and beyond.

What You Will Bring

The ideal candidate will have more than 10 years of experience in the renewable energy industry, in project development, offtake structuring and procurement. 

You will have successfully negotiated interconnection and offtake agreements with utilities and regional transmission operators, with a preference for a successful track record of projects in the southern US (ERCOT, SPP, MISO). 

You’ll have deep expertise in a variety of power purchase agreement (PPA) constructs, on- and off-site PPAs, synthetic/virtual PPAs, sleeved PPAs and green tariffs.

 Most of all you will bring a sense of ingenuity to the role, helping to identify new mechanisms and strategies that can drive down Heirloom’s long-term energy costs while ensuring that our continued dedication to environmental stewardship is met. 

You don’t have to have every listed requirement and skill to be a great fit - you may even teach us something about what we should be looking for!
