  • Prepare and deliver reports, presentations, and other documents for client deliverables and for other stakeholders.
  • Contribute to renewable energy market thought leadership, internal research, and development of intellectual property.
  • Help to formulate company strategy for targeting/approaching market segments and other growth opportunities.
