Nature and Scope

The energy industry is undergoing unprecedented change. We are moving away from a simple but carbon-intensive model of delivering electricity generated by large coal and gas-fired power stations, to a much more dynamic and complex network with large volumes of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected at distribution level. We are seeing the advent of producer/consumers (or 'prosumers') and local energy markets. The rise of electric vehicles (EVs), renewable energy, storage and, decarbonisation of heating are all contributing to the net-zero and green recovery agendas being promoted by government at all levels.

These fundamental changes are challenging both how we maintain and operate our network today, and creating opportunities for us to do so more efficiently in the future. We are committed to playing a important facilitation role in the UK's green economy and to support the transition to a decarbonised and more de-centralised electricity system that is fair and inclusive to all our customers, our role is evolving.

Innovation is at the forefront of this revolution. By developing new ideas, fresh approaches and better processes using the network as a living testbed, Innovation is playing a crucial role not only in making our network safer, more reliable and more efficient, but also in developing technical, digital, commercial and social solutions that support decarbonisation strategies and address the needs of tomorrow's customers.

The Project Leads will support the Innovation team to develop specific innovation strategies, including the deployment of smart solutions to deal with the changing dynamics of electricity networks influenced by the acceleration in the volume of decentralised generation and the electrification of heat and transport. To evaluate these strategies, the team will develop research studies and demonstration projects to test the network impact and benefits associated with the implementation of innovative solutions.

The Project Leads will have overall responsibility for the leadership and delivery of innovation and community projects, including directing in-house and external resources engaged in the technical and/or commercial solutions, management of trials, analysis and dissemination of results.

**Responsibilities**:
**Project Management and Technical leadership**:
Set up electrical engineering and community/heat projects and lead them through several stages of delivery to closure and handover to business as
