Current Opening: Project Manager Position

AVAILABLE POSITION: FULL-TIME PROJECT MANAGER

ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION

Description

As the sole regional designee of the Department of Energy’s Clean Cities and Communities program, Yellowstone-Teton Clean Cities (YTCC) functions as the Department of Energy’s on-the-ground advocate focused on petroleum displacement activities in the Greater Yellowstone Region. More than 75 DOE-designated CC&C coalitions work locally in urban, suburban, and rural communities to strengthen the nation’s environment, energy security, and economic prosperity. As partners with DOE’s Vehicle Technologies Office (VTO), coalitions deploy affordable, efficient, and clean transportation fuels; energy-efficient mobility systems; and other fuel-saving technologies and practices. Since DOE established Clean Cities and Communities in 1993, coalition activities have reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 72 million tons and achieved a cumulative impact in energy use equal to nearly 14 billion gasoline gallon equivalents. Together, coalitions create a compounding impact nationwide that advances U.S. energy resilience and reduces vehicle emissions while supporting regional economic development and job growth.

Affiliation with the Clean Cities and Communities Program provides YTCC with access to regional and national support networks to bring a much broader perspective to local transportation projects. It also allows for access to unique funding opportunities related to supporting the Clean Cities mission. This affiliation, along with YTCC’s regional standing as a resource and advocate for sustainable and efficient transportation, creates an ideal scenario for YTCC to function as a clean transportation leader within the Greater Yellowstone Community to lessen the detrimental impacts of local transportation.
