Bainisteoir don tSamhail Eangaí Choitinn - Common Grid Model Manager - Interconnection (E2025301)
Is muide a fheidhmíonn eangach leictreachais na hÉireann. Feidhmíonn muid an córas cumhachta le leibhéil den scoth ginte in-athnuaite aisioncronaigh athraithigh, le cinntiú go mbíonn cumhacht ag gach duine nuair a theastaíonn sé uathu. Ach ní hé sin bun agus barr an scéil, tá muid anois ag tabhairt faoi chlaochlú an chórais chumhachta do na glúnta inár ndiaidh.
Agus níl ansin ach an tús. Tá cuspóir tábhachtach againn. Is é sin claochlú an chórais chumhachta le cur ar chumas ár sochaí astaíochtaí carbóin a laghdú agus ár spriocanna athraithe aeráide agus neodrachta a bhaint amach.
Glac páirt sa chlaochlú seo!
An Deis
Táimid ag lorg Bainisteoir don tSamhail Eangaí Choitinn (CGM) anois le bheith mar chuid dár bhfoireann Idirnasctha.
An Fhoireann
Tá gairmithe ard-oilte a bhfuil cúlraí san innealtóireacht agus sa ghnó/tráchtáil acu sa Stiúrthóireacht Oibríochtaí & Bainistíochta Sócmhainní - le chéile bainistíonn siad oibriú an chórais chumhachta agus an mhargaidh, ag cinntú go mbíonn na soilse lasta ar bhealach slán, iontaofa, inbhuanaithe agus eacnamaíoch.
Tá an Stiúrthóireacht freagrach freisin as cur i bhfeidhm chlaochlú an chórais tarchurtha agus an mhargaidh d’fhonn freastal ar riachtanais uile úsáideoirí leictreachais amach anseo. Áirítear leis seo an úsáid is fearr a bhaint as idirnascairí chun slándáil an tsoláthair a fheabhsú agus chun spleáchas na hÉireann ar mheaisíní ardcharbóin a laghdú agus iad a athsholáthar le giniúint in-athnuaite i gcomhréir le Ráiteas Beartais Náisiúnta an rialtais maidir le hIdirnascadh Leictreachais 2023.
Tá an fheidhm Idirnasctha freagrach as na gníomhaíochtaí oibríochtúla a bhaineann le bainistiú an idirnascaire Thoir-Thiar (EWIC) 500 MW de shruth díreach ardvoltais (HVDC) go dtí an Bhreatain Bheag ar bhonn 24/7 agus na gníomhaíochtaí ullmhachta a bhaineann leis an nasc HVDC 700 MW atá beartaithe idir Éirinn agus an Fhrainc, an nasc Idirnascaire Ceilteach. Áirítear leis seo ceannaireacht a dhéanamh ar sheachadadh athraithe claochlaitheach i margaí trasteorann, forbairt oibríochtúil agus bainistíocht sócmhainní, chomh maith le deiseanna maidir le hIdirnascairí amach anseo a aithint agus a thacú chun leasa tomhaltóirí.
Is deis iontach í seo doatá paiseanta faoi aidhmeanna agus cuspóirí straitéiseacha Ghrúpa EirGrid a bhaint amach, go háirithe maidir le hidirnasc agus an ról a bheith acu i gceannas agus i dtionchar a imirt ar chomhtháthú agus ar chlaochlú an chórais chumhachta do na glúnta atá le teacht.
