Operations Controller

The fact you can flick a switch and get renewable energy in your home is down to me. I coordinate, regulate, and distribute our clean electricity to the grid. I wouldn't say I'm all powerful, but from our control centre, I have your power in my hands! It can be a solitary job, but I have the glow of my many screens for company!
