405 Electrical Equipment jobs in London

Our Company:

Highview Power is a fast-growing global organisation, leading the way towards a cleaner, more efficient, and secure energy future. We plan to become a world leader in smarter long duration energy storage, a new technology that will enable nations, cities, and corporations to achieve net zero. 

Our proprietary long duration, zero emissions energy storage system utilises cryogenic technology and surplus electricity; at times of low demand/low cost, to make liquid air which can be stored and later converted back into energy and released into the grid, at times of high demand/high cost.

This award-winning technology has been dubbed as "the missing link" to making Renewable Green Energy sources a more resilient, reliable and cost-effective option when compared with traditional fossil fuel alternatives.

Highview Power value their employees and are committed to creating a positive, inspiring and inclusive working environment.

In June 2024 we completed a £300m fundraising process (£30m debt) for the construction of our first full scale plant in Manchester with new investors including Goldman Sachs, Centrica and the UK National Wealth Fund. In September 2025 we will complete a 28m fundraise for the construction a 2nd plant in Hunterston, Scotland. 0m of debt being provided by existing investors and the Scottish National Investment Bank. Over the next year we will also be seeking further funding for development opportunities in Australia, the UK and Ireland.
