About the Organization
The Alliance for Green Heat promotes low carbon residential heating with a focus on modern wood and pellet heating systems. The Alliance works to advance cleaner and more efficient residential heating technology, particularly for low and middle-income families. The Alliance for Green Heat partners with the renewable energy, energy efficiency and climate change community, environmental, forestry, and air quality organizations, the wood and pellet stove industry and others. Founded in Maryland in 2009, the Alliance is an independent non-profit organization and is tax-exempt under section 501c3 of the tax code.

We strongly encourage people from underrepresented groups to apply and those who have heated their homes with wood. We are a dedicated equal opportunity provider.

Research Internship

The Alliance offers full and part time internships for those interested in climate change and renewable energy policy. The internship comes with a stipend of $500 per month. We accept applications on a rolling basis.

This internship will provide an excellent opportunity to learn about renewable energy policy and how it applies to a technology that is not always regarded as clean. This position includes policy research and writing, newsletter creation, website and social media management, as well as a portion of administrative duties. Essential to this work is a passion for renewable energy and energy efficiency. Good verbal and written communication skills are essential. Applicants from wood-burning and/or low-income areas are encouraged to apply.

To apply, please submit cover letter and resume to info@forgreenheat.org.
