Oregon Department of Energy
Salem, OR, USA
WORKING AT THE OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
At the Oregon Department of Energy, we're helping shape the state's energy future. Our team is dedicated to keeping Oregon on the leading edge of renewable energy and efficiency while supporting energy innovation, investment, equity, and resilience. From helping Oregonians save energy at home; to overseeing the state's interests in the world's largest environmental cleanup at the Hanford nuclear site in Washington, our work is challenging, rewarding, and diverse. We work with developers and communities on proposed energy facilities, with schools and manufacturers looking to save energy and money, and with other agencies and stakeholders on meeting the challenges of climate change. Oregon is one of the most energy-efficient states in the country, routinely landing near the top of annual national rankings. ODOE is committed to helping Oregon remain an energy leader, and that starts with hiring engaged team members ready to deliver for all Oregonians.
The Nuclear Safety and Emergency Preparedness Division protects the health and safety of Oregonians, protects our environment, and advances and supports secure and resilient communities. This is accomplished through six program areas: Energy Security, Emergency Fuels Preparedness and Response, Nuclear Safety and Radiological Emergency Preparedness, Hanford Nuclear Site Policy, Radioactive Waste Disposal Regulations, and Radioactive Material Transportation Safety. This position leads two primary programs, Energy Security and Emergency Fuels Preparedness and Response.
The Energy Security program is responsible for developing and implementing a statewide energy security plan that analyzes risks and threats to Oregon’s energy systems (electricity, natural gas, liquid fuels, and propane), and considers measures to mitigate those risks. The energy security plan is developed under both state and federal legislation. The energy security team works closely with Oregon Public Utility Commission staff, as well as utilities and energy providers, stakeholders, federal and local governments, and Tribal governments.
The Emergency Fuels Preparedness and Response program is the statewide Emergency Support Function fuels lead: trained ODOE staff respond to local, regional, or statewide emergencies by supporting coordinated response in collaboration with private fuel providers. The program manages and implements the Oregon Fuel Action Plan, which identifies scalable strategies and procedures for responding to all hazards that could trigger supply disruptions and distribution problems with potential impacts on public health and safety.
We encourage people from all backgrounds to apply for our positions and hope you will join us on our path to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We are an agency that embraces social equity through our values, strategic planning, and actions. Leaning into our equity priorities means we continually examine what we do, the impact we have, and our progress toward weaving social equity into who we are.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
The primary purpose of the position is to guide, direct, and manage the development and implementation of a statewide Oregon Fuel Action Plan and Oregon Energy Security Plan, as well as represent the Governor’s Office and the agency in a variety of different policy and planning forums.
