Department Overview

PG&E’s Customer Generation and Storage (CG&S) team is comprised of two teams, the Customer Resiliency team and the Distributed Generation team.

 

PG&E's Customer Resiliency organization’s mission is to support critical customers with self-generation options and mitigate the impact of potential loss of power from events such as Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS), Enhanced Power Safety Settings (EPSS), and other outages.  The team oversees various programs to reduce the cost of backup power options, such as the Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP), Portable Battery Program (PBP), Disability Disaster Access and Resources (DDAR) program in partnership with the California Foundation for Independent Living Centers, Generator and Battery Rebate Program, and several Fixed Power Solutions programs. Additionally, the customer resiliency organization is responsible for implementing the plan to install Behind the Meter (BTM) batteries for our customers most impacted by EPSS outages.  The talents, skill, enthusiasm, drive, and team spirit of Customer Resiliency employees are truly the backbone of our success.

 

The Distributed Generation team interacts extensively with regulators, vendors, DG and storage industry experts. We also collaborate extensively with other departments in PG&E to support and enhance the DG customer experience and proactively drive new policies; those partners include Information Technology (IT), Billing, Pricing Products, Electric Grid Interconnection (EGI), the Customer Contact Center, Customer Service, Solutions Marketing and Customer Communication, Energy Policy and Procurement, Law, and Regulatory Affairs.

 

Position Summary

This position will report to the Manager of the Customer Resiliency team and be part of the overall CG&S Extended Leadership Team.  The position will have exposure to higher level Load Management Solutions, Utility Partnerships & Innovations, and Engineering, Planning, and Strategy leadership discussions as well as backing up CG&S leaders on the team as needed.

 

This position is hybrid, working from your remote office and your assigned work location based on business need. The remote work location must be in California, and the assigned work location will be within the PG&E service territory.

 

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity.
