Operative vacancy

Based on previous experiences from a microgrid demonstration site in Sweden, the client has demonstrated the potential of new, innovative technologies for local balancing in order to guarantee the secure and reliable operation of a local energy system that relies on a renewable energy source penetration of up to 100% and the potential of using elements of this technology for a cost-effective integration of renewables into the electricity grids.

Additionally, since 2016 the Clean Energy Package for all Europeans published by the European Commission opened the door to a new market player called Local Energy Communities (LEC). The client sees the possibility, that LECs can become the regulatory vehicle that enables a cost-effective integration of renewables by implementing innovative technologies in those cases where all the involved actors are benefited by it. For this reason, support is needed to help our team communicate the successes achieved so far and the vision we follow. Together with internal regional units and external suppliers, these activities will be driven forward.
