As part of the energy transition, the network in the municipality of Amsterdam will also be reinforced and redesigned in the coming decade. This entails a large-scale expansion of the 150kV network for TenneT over the next 10 years, with an expected capacity growth from 880MVA to 4200MVA in the highest scenario. This means specifically multiple 150 kV stations (new and replacement) and 150kV grid connections will be realized. This is a complex task in a city with limited space and challenging decision-making processes.

This will be our challenge
Within TenneT, the Grid Field Operations Netherlands (GFO-N) unit is responsible for expanding, maintaining, and preserving the high-voltage grid of the Netherlands. The XP department, which is responsible for realizing projects closely related to external service providers, is preparing for this task. Normally, stations and connections are executed and commissioned as separate, fairly straightforward projects. With the task in Amsterdam, simplicity is no longer the case. Therefore, a Program Group Amsterdam (PGA) is being formed to consider the projects in conjunction and to work at a tactical level on integrated solutions that accelerate the major task and benefit the individual projects. Alliander has also recognized this necessity and is organizing itself in a similar manner.
Additional information
The internship is for 32 to 40 hours per week.
The duration and start date are to be determined in consultation.
