The Energy Foundation—Beijing Office

公司简介: The Global Environmental Institute (GEI) is a private non-governmental environmental organization based in Beijing. GEI promotes institutional reforms that encourage environmentally sustainable development. The Energy Foundation is a private foundation based in San Francisco with a Beijing representative office comprised of eleven Chinese staff, whose mission is to encourage sustainable development through energy efficiency and renewable energy policy development.

GEI and the Energy Foundation are jointly launching a new “China Sustainable Transportation Institute” (CSTI). CSTI’s mission is to assist China’s major cities to develop technical and policy solutions to transportation challenges, including vehicle congestion and deteriorating air quality. Central to the mission of CSTI is to help China’s cities to develop Bus Rapid Transit Systems (BRT)—dedicated-lane bus systems that move people station-to-station with subway-like efficiency but at five percent of subway costs.

The Energy Foundation and GEI seek two responsible, energetic, and highly professional individuals for the positions of Transportation Engineer. The Transportation Engineers will serve as the initial managers and technical experts for CSTI’s BRT Program. The engineers will be housed at GEI during the first 2-3 years of operations; GEI will provide management and logistical support, while the engineers will report directly to the Energy Foundation’ Transportation Program Officer on all program matters. After 2-3 years, CSTI will establish in its own offices and will operate as a wholly independent NGO serving all China’s cities in the development of BRT and sustainable transportation systems.
