The Business Energy Advisor (BEA) develops relationships with small/medium and large business customers, introduces them to Duke Energy products and services, and closes/wins customer projects for energy efficiency, demand response, chargers and outdoor lighting products and services. The Senior BEA focuses on developing relationships with business customers including C‑level/owners (typically $250k–$500k annual revenue), nurtures long-term relationships for cross-sell opportunities, and leverages knowledge of the company’s products and services (lighting, HVAC, Food service, EV).

Tracking and reporting are vital to project success. For non-regulated energy efficiency product and service sales, the BEA process includes securing Customer Disclosure Authorization (CDA) for future discussion with regulated customers.
