Specialist Tactical Capacity Management

The energy transition is impossible without you as Specialist Tactical Capacity Management 

As a Specialist Tactical Capacity Management within System Operations, you are a strategic expert responsible for analyzing and safeguarding the availability of the electricity grid over the next 0 to 2 years. Your starting point is creating insight into future bottlenecks by generating forecasts that combine short- and long-term grid load expectations. 

You’ll be part of a team that is evolving rapidly and plays a crucial role in professionalizing this discipline. This requires an innovative and resourceful approach, where you help translate policy into practice and propose concrete improvements. Your strategic analyses and advice are essential to maximize grid utilization and accelerate the energy transition.

Together with you, we make the energy transition possible—for and with our customers.
