RESP Technical Officer - Wales
About the Role
The Wales RESP needs to reflect national characteristics and priorities, driving whole energy considerations across all energy vectors. Think renewables, heat decarbonisation, hydrogen, energy networks, transport and flexibility! And how Wales needs differ, yet come together with the other nation and regions to form the Great British energy plan.
To achieve this, we have national and regional based teams – to work alongside our other teams in forming the hub and spokes needed for energy planning to benefit from and reflect local inputs.
Developing the RESP will require us to work with organisations at a local level (‘local actors’) including local government and gas and electricity networks, to improve understanding of the infrastructure needed in different parts of the country and attract investment for projects. Stakeholder engagement will be key to unlocking the benefits of integrated regional energy planning.
The purpose of this job is to lead engagement with technical audiences and coordinating technical and data interfaces with the Hub and other national / regional teams in developing RESPs.
Having an understanding and lived experience of Wales will be key.
Our focus in the immediate term is to build trust with our stakeholders, establish our process and methodology, and grow our capability in whole energy systems to best support local actors and industry stakeholders in developing credible plans to support net zero.
Climate change is the challenge of a generation, and the time to act is now. Join us and you won’t just be touching the lives of almost everyone in Great Britain – you will be shaping the way we use and consume energy for generations to come.
