ClearPath’s mission is to develop and advance policies that accelerate innovations to reduce and remove global energy emissions. To advance that mission, we develop cutting-edge policy solutions on clean energy and industrial innovation. An entrepreneurial, strategic nonprofit, ClearPath (501(c)(3)) collaborates with public and private sector stakeholders on innovations in nuclear energy, carbon capture, hydropower, natural gas, geothermal, energy storage, and heavy industry to enable private-sector deployment of critical technologies. Started in 2014 by entrepreneur Jay Faison, ClearPath engages in the direct education of policymakers within the White House, Congress, Executive Agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the Interior, and regulators.
ClearPath team members believe in small government, free markets, and American entrepreneurship. Those principles form the basis for how the team analyzes proposed clean energy and climate policy.
The Policy Advisor will join ClearPath’s policy team, a group responsible for crafting organizational positions and recommendations across a diverse set of clean energy technologies that can significantly reduce carbon emissions on a global scale. This team member will expand ClearPath’s carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) portfolio, focusing on federal policies to accelerate deployment and promote it to key audiences in government and industry.
The portfolio encompasses a holistic set of policies, ranging from complementary federal technological innovation R&D programs, project finance such as the 45Q tax incentive and other CCUS-related financial policies, regulatory reform for project and infrastructure permitting, and international collaboration that could accelerate the deployment of CCUS technologies globally.
This work includes representing the portfolio at related trade associations and industry convenings like the Carbon Utilization and Research Council (CURC), the Carbon Capture Coalition, and the Global CCS Institute. It also includes managing the 501(c)3’s philanthropic support for CCUS initiatives.
This position will report directly to ClearPath’s Carbon Management Program Manager.
