Globally, our projects range from energy efficiency work that saves megawatts of power at California State University campuses and transmission line upgrades in Australia, to wind farm design in Argyll, Scotland and design & construction of a hydroelectric power project in central Laos that supplies power to Thailand. Whether we're designing a system to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions at coal-fired plants in Canada, developing a detailed handbook to help London's developers implement sustainable energy policies, installing a 200-kilowatt fuel cell at a Texas medical clinic, or developing a turbine-generator unit at a geothermal field in West Java, AECOM strives to meet all of its clients' needs.
This is a delivery focused role requiring a technical understanding of energy efficiency and energy decarbonisation and ability to perform research and make recommendations regarding emerging energy and decarbonisation technologies.
The role involves assisting in the delivery of a broad spectrum of technical services to our clients drawing on the wide capabilities that we have on offer.
