Streetworks Co-ordinator

Electricity connections are complex by nature. Our group’s innovative, forward-thinking energy solutions make everything easier: from design to connection and beyond.

Our Group consists of Eclipse Power Networks - an OFGEM licenced Independent Distribution Network Operator (IDNO) that provides an effective alternative to the local Distribution Network Operator for getting projects connected to the electricity grid;
Eclipse Power Solutions – an expert Grid Consultancy who support customers through the grid connection process, and Eclipse Power Optimise; focussed on microgrids and private network solutions in the unlicenced market.

We design, own, operate and maintain extra high, high and low voltage electricity distribution network assets, providing innovative power connections to residential, industrial, renewable and commercial customers across the UK.

We care about our people and the talent and personality they bring. We are continuing to strengthen our talent, leadership, training, and recognition for people as they are the core of what we do and how we operate. We have an inclusive culture where people are rewarded and recognised for their inputs, innovation, and customer-centric solutions. We also have fun at work and want people to enjoy what they do and what they are helping to create.

To continue to do this we need strong diverse thinking and having people from a range of backgrounds, careers, and expertise help us do this.
