The energy sector
The energy industry is concerned with access to various energy sources, energy generation, storage and transmission, energy trading and energy supply and security of supply. In addition to traditional and new utility companies, municipal utilities and local electricity and gas suppliers, a wide range of industrial and service sectors have established themselves in the industry due to the variety of conventional and renewable energy sources that exist today (primarily electricity and gas, fuels such as oil and coal, as well as solar, wind and geothermal energy), meaning that exciting new job opportunities can be found in this sector alongside the traditional ones. These have a future, as the state is obliged now and in the future to provide gas and electricity to all citizens as part of its public services. Anyone who wants to develop their career will find good prospects here, as the specific requirements of the jobs are changing rapidly in some cases due to technical/digital innovations and the challenges of the energy transition.
