Job description

Highview Power is an award-winning energy technology company that designs and develops long-duration energy storage solutions for utility and distributed power systems, which use liquid air as the storage medium.

Highview Power’s proprietary long duration, zero emissions energy storage system utilises cryogenic technology and surplus electricity; at times of low demand/low cost to make liquid air which can be stored. Later, this energy can be converted back into electricity and released into the grid, at times of high demand/high cost.

Our cryogenic technology has been dubbed as "the missing link" to making renewable green energy sources a more resilient, reliable, and cost-effective option when compared with traditional carbon alternatives.

Highview Power values their employees and are committed to creating a positive, inspiring, and inclusive working environment.
