Do you want an exciting everyday life and work for a fossil-free future? As a Network Engineer/Power System Analyst with us, you will have the opportunity to influence tomorrow's climate-smart society and create the electricity grid of the future.

Sweden has initiated a historic transition and is facing extensive electrification of society.
