    Department Overview

    PG&E's Energy Policy and Procurement (EPP) organization procures electricity, capacity, and ancillary services to serve the needs of bundled electric customers 24 hours a day.


    EPP reduces customer costs and attain stable prices through contracting and financial hedging instruments and in doing so, maintain a focus on sustainability by supporting environmentally-preferred resources.

    In addition, EPP procures natural gas, pipeline capacity, and storage capacity on behalf of residential and small commercial customers, and for both utility-owned and contracted third-party electric generation.

    In addition, EPP is responsible for long-term planning, risk management, and compliance functions related to PG&E's energy portfolio.

    EPP's Contract Management (CM) team ensures that PG&E and the parties who sell energy and capacity to PG&E remain compliant with all terms of their energy contract, both for contracts that are actively delivering energy and for new facilities under construction.

    The Contract Management team manages hundreds of procurement contracts related to renewable energy, conventional energy, combined heat and power, energy storage, natural gas and biogas, resource adequacy capacity products, renewable energy credits, and greenhouse gas allowances, as well as associated transmission and financial hedging agreements.

    Position Summary

    The ideal candidate for this position has considerable experience and understanding of renewable energy contracts, energy markets (including the California ISO), and the California regulatory environment.

    In addition, the ideal candidate will also have excellent written and oral communication skills, an aptitude for critical thinking, and strong detail-orientation.

    The Expert Contract Management Analyst will be part of a team (RPS and CSA Contracts Team), responsible for managing PG&E's contracts with third party generation facilities and for assisting with regulatory reporting requirements


    The Expert Analyst will:
    Develop subject matter expertise with renewable Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs);
    Work with internal and external parties to maximize the value of assigned contracts in the PG&E portfolio;
    Ensure that all necessary steps are taken for the facilities to deliver energy and/or capacity to PG&E in a manner consistent with the obligations of the agreement, market rules, and internal process;
    Ensure operation and administration of contracts is in accordance with all contract terms and conditions;
    Track and use contract information to support strategic decision making, and internal and external reporting;
    Interpret, analyze, communicate about issues and disputes that arise during contract administration, and put together recommendations to upper management for resolution;
