The Early Climate Infrastructure (ECI) program at Prime seeks to unlock barriers to scale climate solutions faster, galvanizing the global elimination of greenhouse gas emissions. ECI will do this by investing catalytic capital into climate solution commercialization projects that are promising but cannot or will not receive traditional financing, and by curating, funding, and actively managing specific grant-funded systems innovation work in support of scaling those solutions. “Early Climate Infrastructure” is initially defined as solutions for mitigating climate change that are ready for initial commercialization activity, or that are fully commercial but need additional support to move to massive scale. The ECI program and team is currently in early startup mode and seeks mission-aligned individuals to support our work this summer to define and execute the set of interventions ECI will make.
ECI Interns will primarily be responsible for assisting ECI staff in conducting research and analysis to develop our pipeline of potential interventions. Potential projects could include deep dives to define the landscape for a potential intervention (e.g., innovative approaches and barriers to scale), assisting with due diligence for potential ECI investments, and analysis of the potential GHG, equity, and ancillary impacts of an intervention. Each intern will take responsibility for at least one major project during their tenure, while also supporting ECI Staff on near- term tasks as needed. Prime embraces the differences between people of varied races, ethnicities, genders, ages, religions, and sexual orientations. We also acknowledge the value that different life experiences bring to our organization as a workplace, and to our ability to understand and advance our mission. Prime is an equal-opportunity employer, and we encourage all applicants who share our values to apply.
Job responsibilities include but are not limited to:
(1) Conduct research and analysis work in support of the ECI staff to construct the ECI design phase portfolio
(2) Centering equity and supporting a strong culture within ECI and Prime
