DOE Science, Technology and Policy Program– Office of Policy, Industrial Technologies Strategy Fellow

https://www.zintellect.com/Opportunity/Details/DOE-STP-OP-2024-0005

About the Office of Policy

The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Policy (OP) is leading analysis and supporting the coordination of joint activities across the research, development, demonstration and deployment (RDD&D) spectrum to reduce emissions in the industrial sector and increase U.S. competitiveness. With 30% of primary energy-related emissions attributable to the industrial sector, the enhanced coordination that the Office of Policy will provide plays an important role in supporting the reduction of U.S. CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030 (compared to 2005 levels) and achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.  Industrial subsectors of interest include petrochemicals, chemicals, metals, cement and concrete, pulp and paper, food and beverage. Technology areas of interest include carbon capture, process electrification, energy efficiency, and hydrogen.

The Office of Policy is seeking an Industrial Technologies Strategy Fellow to participate in the overall enhanced coordination of activities across multiple offices within the Department of Energy and with other agencies and external stakeholders. The Industrial Technologies Strategy Fellow will participate alongside the Industrial Technologies Senior Advisor in the Office of Policy under the guidance of the Chairs of the Industrial Technologies Joint Strategy Team from the Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains, Office of Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization and the Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations.

What will I be doing?

OP is seeking a talented and passionate fellow interested in supporting strategic, analytic and policy efforts aimed at decarbonizing the industrial sector. You will collaborate closely with multiple staff across DOE—including several former fellows—and will develop a broad understanding of the potential of new technologies and current barriers to technology deployment. You will have the opportunity to learn how to:

• Facilitate the development and implementation of a DOE wide Multi-year Program Plan to align and optimize DOE funding toward key goals in partnership with multiple key DOE offices. 
• Facilitate engagement and collaborate with other DOE programs and offices, participating in office-wide or interoffice initiatives, task forces, or tech teams (e.g. the Energy Earthshots and other Joint Strategy Teams).
• Identify and elevate analytical outcomes, identify opportunities and contribute to development and execution of DOE and interagency strategies.
• Review and provide input on technical reports, analysis, roadmaps, research proposals, and other technical documents.
• Participate in preparing and presenting briefings to upper management, external offices, and at conferences.
• Interface with technical, policy, and business leaders from academia, national labs, the private sector, and other government agencies (e.g. through interagency working groups).
• Participate in the planning and execution of workshops, webinars, and other stakeholder events or initiatives.
