Energy Efficiency is one of the fastest-growing business groups at Eversource. As part of our team of energy experts, you’ll support the energy transformation across New England. Our team shares a commitment to sustainability that motivates our day-to-day work providing solutions for a clean energy future. By joining us, you will be at the forefront of advancing clean/renewable energy, energy efficiency, battery storage, demand response and demand management, electric vehicle charging, and more.

See what we’re doing to reach our 2030 carbon neutral goals in our latest sustainability report.

If you have innovative ideas, are passionate about helping customers live and use energy more efficiently, and are focused on positively impacting the environment, this is the group for you. We promote and advance a high-energy work environment and value employees who bring new ideas that help us work smarter in supporting our customers.

Our Environmental Affairs team is focused on meeting or exceeding compliance with environmental regulations to improve air quality, protect water resources, reduce waste and responsibly manage pollutants. We strive to promote sustainability throughout the company and actively work with customers, community members, environmental groups, regulatory agencies, and civic partners to promote transparent operations.

Dedicated staff members also proactively identify and protect cultural, historic and natural resources, and oversee the responsible management of wildlife and vegetation that inhabit our rights of way. This includes protection of migratory birds, turtles, and endangered species.

Our Commitment to Environmental Sustainability includes an industry-leading corporate goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030. Environmental Affairs employees play a key role in helping Eversource take targeted steps to meet this ambitious goal.

We’re working with businesses and municipalities throughout New England to make Electric Vehicle (EV) charging more accessible. We subsidize the infrastructure costs associated with installing charging stations while managing all the work from start to finish.

Eversource has been recognized by the Environmental Business Council (EBC) of New England with its Nicholas Humber Award for Outstanding Collaboration. The award honors Eversource for its commitment to safeguarding the ecological health of Little Bay, an environmentally sensitive estuary located in Durham and Newington, New Hampshire, while completing the submarine cable crossing portion of the Seacoast Reliability Project (SRP).

Eversource is a regional and national clean energy leader, delivering innovative, forward-looking energy solutions. Our Business Development organization is instrumental in identifying opportunities, partnerships and strategies beyond our everyday energy-delivery business to bring clean energy into our region.

As an industry leader with a strong commitment to sustainability, Eversource has set a goal to be carbon neutral by 2030, working to reduce as much of the company’s emissions from operations as possible.

The following is a snapshot of the innovative work we do:

• Eversource’s partnership with Ørsted, the world’s leading developer and operator of offshore wind facilities, ranks us as North America’s largest developer of offshore wind facilities. Together we’ve already leased offshore areas with the capacity for up to 4,000 MW of offshore wind.
• We’re developing creative energy storage projects that store power for times when it’s most needed. Battery storage can shave peaks, improve customer reliability and resilience, limit the need to upgrade substations, build new lines and other infrastructure, and reduce dependence on some types of fossil-fuel generation plants.
• Eversource owns and operates 22 solar power facilities with 70 megawatts of capacity — the emissions-reducing equivalent of taking 6,000 cars off the road. We also connect to the grid more than 87,000 solar facilities belonging to our customers, totaling more than 1,600 MW of capacity.
• We’re supporting the development of New England’s electric vehicle charging network. Eversource pays all the costs related to electrical infrastructure at a customer’s site, and the customer buys, owns and operates the actual chargers.

Eversource is committed to delivering reliable energy safely to our customers, and our Business Development group delivers on our commitment to provide a brighter energy future for New England.

Eversource currently operates more than 4,415 circuit miles of transmission lines, 58,792 circuit miles of distribution lines, 531 substations, 638,464 distribution transformers and 11,903 miles of natural gas distribution pipelines across our service territory. As an integral member of our Finance team, you’ll work in a dynamic and collaborative environment to identify business opportunities and balance risk-mitigation strategies to drive our growth.
