Our website and mobile app allow students to learn about energy, carbon, and climate change and they can even develop a solar project themselves on their own schools.  About the Role   We are looking for students with a passion for energy and/or sustainability who want to making a tangible difference to the UK’s goal of reaching net zero carbon by 2050.
