any spots in mind? I never know where to go search

> Clean energy advocates point to batteries as a solution to renewables’ intermittent nature

Not just batteries, but an efficient grid that uses all the resources in an optimal manner. This was always the goal in creating microgrids, to be able to not rely on the main grid unless required, and when required the main grid would be able to perhaps use another microgrid's resources.

any visa sponsorship?

I currently do a lot of backend work building tools required for a power company to operate within a smart grid with distributed energy resources. The idea is to efficiently manage microgrids so then we can build towards a more efficient national grid.

I got my current job from there 3 years ago, started my freelancing career, then moved to New Zealand to work full time

per month? pretty amazing

what's the cost on something like this?

quite interested to hear more, already doing work in this space

ah that's awesome, been following the tech blog for awhile now. I assume since the office is new, you aren't sponsoring visas? I work in the NZ energy market and this opportunity sounds interesting

willing to sponsor a visa?

is this office new? Didn't realise Octopus operated outside of the UK

luckily ours was arduino-ish and pretty simple to program. But we had to built everything since it was more of a mechanical + electrical design class, so there was lots of machine shop time

super neat stuff, I visited their offices recently and was really impressed by what they were doing. From what I can tell, everything was done in house
