## Description

About Us:

Fuse Energy is a forward-thinking renewable energy startup on a mission to deliver a terawatt of renewable energy - fast. We're combining first-principles thinking with cutting-edge technology to build a radically better energy system.

We're creating a fully integrated energy company: from developing solar, wind and hydrogen projects to real-time power trading and distributed energy installations. By selling directly to consumers, we cut out the middleman, lower costs and pass on savings to customers.

- Grid Connection & Compliance - Lead technical review of grid connection agreements and compliance requirements

- Project Delivery Support - Provide HV electrical input from early development through to commissioning and handover

- Construction, Testing & Commissioning - Support site delivery teams during HV installation, testing, energisation, and commissioning

- Stakeholder & Technical Assurance - Interface with EPC contractors, consultants, lenders, and independent engineers

Requirements:

- 5–10+ years of experience in HV/MV electrical engineering within power, utilities, or renewable energy

- Strong experience in utility-scale Solar PV, BESS, or grid infrastructure projects

- Previous experience within an Independent Connection Provider (ICP) will be prioritised

- Deep understanding of HV systems, substations, protection systems, and grid connection design

- Strong knowledge of UK grid standards and processes (DNO/TSO, Grid Code, G99/G100)
