Fara,
Associate Energy Efficiency Consultant
Meet Fara
I am an Energy Efficiency Consultant for Eversource Energy. I joined the company as a Coop/Intern while in graduate school, working out of the Berlin, CT office. After graduating, I was hired full time to join the Energy Efficiency Gas team in Westwood, MA. Eversource has a goal to be carbon neutral by 2030 and energy efficiency plays a major role in achieving this. I am very passionate about Energy Efficiency because it helps in reducing our customers carbon footprint which in turn helps to protect the environment. My role is like that of a project manager. I manage the process from sourcing for opportunities to save energy up until final installation of these energy efficiency measures. A lot of these measures are also incentivized through the offerings from the states we operate in, so our customers don’t have to cover the entire cost. It is a very fulfilling job because I get to see in real time carbon emission reduction while also helping our customers save money.
