Medior Scada Engineer

We want to accelerate the energy transition. With our ambitious ‘One Planet Plan’, we have made it clear that by 2035, we aim to be the first energy company to become CO2-neutral. No more reliance on natural gas! The entire Netherlands is making the switch. Towards smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable energy. Everyone has their own reasons for doing so. Some want to contribute to a better climate, others switch because their neighbors are doing it, or because they find joy in saving energy, and we're doing it now!

Our Assets department is at the heart of change due to the growth of renewable energy, the need for flexibility to enable system integration of renewable energy sources, and regulatory changes. This rapid growth also calls for more support and expansion of our team, and that’s where you come in!

At Eneco Energy Trading, our goal is to be a leading provider of flexibility and grid stabilization in the North European energy market using renewable energy. Our SCADA team ensures we continuously implement technical changes to stay competitive in our IT/OT landscape. This allows us to connect and manage as much renewable energy as possible in our sustainable portfolio, both now and in the future.
