Open RFIs and RFPs

The objective of the Senior Advisor is to work with NASEO and support the development of key deliverables, as well as to provide guidance and offer direction for future development of NASEO’s activities. NASEO seeks a Senior Advisor to provide the following support:
  • Provide expert technical assistance in the operation of public-private partnership programs, such as Energy Savings Performance Contracting for state and local building energy upgrades, as well as state-led programs such as revolving loan funds; and
  • Develop information for State Energy Offices use in local-facing energy programs supported by SEP IIJA funds. 
The Senior Advisor will be expected to have knowledge of State Energy Office functions, roles, processes, and scope; experience with developing and administering optional SEP-supported financing programs (e.g., ESPC) and revolving loan funds; and deep familiarity with the U.S. State Energy Program, including experience with managing SEP awards and projects, and knowledge of IIJA SEP provisions. The Senior Advisor should also be prepared to provide substantive feedback and guidance on NASEO work products throughout the development process. Finally, the Senior Advisor should have a deep understanding of State Energy Offices’ roles in public building energy retrofits, energy efficiency financing, and energy programs across the country, as well as both NASEO and DOE roles in supporting State Energy Offices.
