Media Organization: RTO Insider LLC

Company Description

Fast-growing trade publication (www.rtoinsider.com) covering climate policy and the electric power industry seeks energetic, inquisitive beat reporter.

We are building The Wall Street Journal of the electric power industry. I am an award-winning former reporter and editor with The Philadelphia Inquirer and Bloomberg who believes trade publications don't have to be dull or poorly written.

Job Description

Your job will be covering the state agencies that are overseeing New York’s goal of reducing economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions 40% percent from 1990 levels by 2030. That includes the New York Public Service Commission, the Climate Action Council, the governor, the legislature and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and the New York Power Authority.

You also will cover the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO), which manages the state’s electric grid and wholesale electric markets — a combination of an air traffic controller and the New York Stock Exchange. You’ll be covering NYISO stakeholder meetings in Rensselaer. You'll also be writing up filings with, and rulings by, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (www.ferc.gov) plus enterprise stories (new technologies; climate change policy, etc.)
