About the Opportunity

At Skyven Technologies, we have developed a revolutionary heat pump technology to decarbonize industrial heat and move the needle on climate change. Our technologies have the potential to completely eliminate on-site CO2 emissions from industrial steam. We implement this technology through an innovative Energy-as-a-Service model that provides clean process heat to industrial facilities. We identify, fund, design, build, and install our cutting-edge, decarbonization technologies to help industrial manufacturers reach their sustainability goals, while minimizing their risk and reducing their operational expenses.

Industrial heat is responsible for roughly 20% of global CO2 emissions. That’s roughly equivalent to emissions generated by all transportation (including land, sea, and air) and is a compelling business opportunity – it will take an estimated $3.7 trillion in capital investment to decarbonize the sector by 2050. Skyven is at the forefront of this transformation and has recently been selected for a $145M investment from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to accelerate the deployment of our state-of-the-art Skyven Arcturus steam-generating heat pumps (SGHPs) at manufacturing facilities nationwide, revolutionizing how we address energy needs while combating climate change.

About the Role

We are seeking an Energy Analyst to drive the technical sales, development, and deployment of Skyven’s Arcturus steam-generating heat pump (SGHP) product. The primary responsibilities of this role include understanding and negotiating utility rate structures in both regulated and deregulated markets, advising on rate options, and advocating for available incentives. The Energy Analyst will also provide detailed techno-economic analyses and energy procurement planning support during the sales process, build and utilize rate schedule calculators, provide predictions for realized energy costs, and interpret project economic impact from carbon pricing and emission savings.

Success in this role requires strong communication skills, effective collaboration with sales, finance, and project management teams, and the ability to independently gather and analyze information necessary to drive projects to completion. The ideal candidate will excel in customer interactions, support feasibility analyses, lead conversations with clients and stakeholders, and respond to inquiries about energy markets. While extensive experience in all areas is not required, the ability to learn quickly, utilize available resources, and conduct market research is essential.

Responsibilities

• Understand and negotiate utility rate structures in regulated and deregulated energy markets
• Pull rate schedules from utilities to negotiate and recommend the best options for projects
• Build and utilize rate schedule calculators to interpret rate structures
• Calculate fuel consumption, costs, and marginal costs for industrial equipment
• Establish incentive baselines and advocate for higher incentive rates for electrification projects
• Communicate carbon pricing, such as the value of low-carbon fuel credits and emission savings
• Collaborate with internal teams to optimize energy costs using data analysis and market research
• Evaluate customer priorities and project economics to determine optimal project concepts
• Guide customers to the best technical solutions and address objections
• Manage project logistics, including setting the stage for actual connection to the grid and establishing agreements with facilities
• Foster strong relationships with utilities and build customer credibility
• Work closely with internal teams on successful project implementation
• Support feasibility studies focusing on electrical infrastructure requirements and validating energy costs
