You believe in a successful transition to electric driving, by, among other things, deploying smart systems for optimal grid management. As a Senior Consultant in the Sustainability Team, you will help develop themes such as efficient urban logistics, carbon footprint, electrification and charging infrastructure. With your background in the energy world, you move effortlessly between governments, grid managers and businesses. You know that switching to electric vehicles to supply urban areas brings challenges for network capacity, for example. You initiate discussions about this and devise creative solutions to better attune supply and demand. How do you optimise the use of smart charging and load balancing?
You keep track of developments in the field of charging infrastructure in order to further develop our services in the area of electrification and charging infrastructure. As a Senior Consultant Electrification and Charging Infrastructure, you use your skills for projects such as:
- Mapping charging needs in areas and advising governments on this: which capacities are expected, with which impact on the grid connection?
- Advising companies on their fleet management, such as the type of electric vehicles and the ideal battery capacity
- Supporting transport companies in determining the best charging strategy: depending on route profiles, range and costs at the depot, during loading/unloading or en route.
