Beyond 40x25, 50x30, and 80x50, the City has also made other energy-related commitments, such as pledging to install 100 MW of solar photovoltaic on City buildings by 2025. DEM works closely with our agency partners to help them reduce emissions and improve energy management in their facilities, including providing them with project funding, project delivery vehicles, technical expertise, staff resources, strategic planning support, and data analytics. The Project Manager will be responsible for program data collection and tracking required to ensure accurate, on-demand, project reporting including measurement and verification of project(s) cost, scope and schedule, energy and greenhouse gas emissions savings, project completion, and progress towards achieving the City's goals. The Project Manager will also support financial project management tasks including reviewing and processing invoices, tracking project expenditures against budget, preparing budget documents, and reporting program results.
