  • Serve as the primary liaison with public and private utility providers (power, water, sewer, gas, fiber). Manage the process for utility capacity studies, service agreements, and the design and approval of on-site and off-site utility infrastructure. This includes navigating complex energy regulatory affairs, such as large load tariffs and interconnection studies.
