Ensure assets and systems are energy efficient, integrated, connected and enabled to minimise the operating cost, the operational carbon emissions and facilitate effective operations and management of the railway.
Role

  • Uphold the requirement for an energy efficient railway by engaging cross functionally with colleagues to provide clarity on how this will be achieved at a system and asset level.
  • Coordinate and work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure assets and systems meet energy efficiency requirements.
  • Ensure systems are integrated (metering, data, controls, maintenance & analytical software) in order to enable effective management of energy in the operation of the railway.
  • Work with the Infrastructure Manager to develop energy-related high level operating procedures that deliver energy efficiency and management. This will enable effective design and commissioning of energy systems.
  • Specify and implement technologies, requirements and systems for accurate energy data collection and analyses. This will enable monitoring and improvements in energy performance during operation of the railway.
  • Support in commercial and technical evaluation of revenue generation opportunities related to energy assets.
  • Assess the technical feasibility of initiatives to improve the integration into the future UK energy infrastructure, capturing commercial opportunities and enabling decarbonisation of the grid.
  • Identify and embed appropriate standards and certification (e.g, ISO 50001).
