In today’s episode we are joined by Juliette Sanders, Head of Communications for New Energy Solutions at Equinor. We discuss Juliette's journey from engineer to communications, her lockdown alter ego Killah Jules bringing renewable energy concepts to life through the power of music, and the jobs in offshore wind that are continuing to be created throughout the pandemic. Of course, no conversation with Equinor would be complete without a deep dive into floating wind, the pioneering technology crucial to net zero ambitions across the world.

PLUS stay tuned for an exclusive snippet of Killah Jules’ latest track, appropriately named Floatin’ Floatin’...

Welcome to episode two of Power Onn. In this episode, we are joined by Helen Thomas, Stakeholder Engagement Manager at RWE. 

Talking to people in the offshore wind, you soon learn that maybe there’s no such thing as a conventional route into the industry. Our world-leading sectors boasts individuals from all walks of life, and Helen Thomas is no exception to this. Helen left school at 17 and showed a tremendous amount of determination and ambition to return to higher education and pursue a career in a field that makes a huge difference to the world around her. Originally from Crystal Palace, Helen now spends her days (in a normal year, at least) travelling up and down the country as part of her work on Awel y Môr and Sofia offshore wind farms. 

Opening my series on 'Net Zero Heroes' is Alistair McRae an Offshore Wind Turbine Technician Apprentice with Orsted, in his second year. 

From the mean streets of Grimsby to the tippy-top of a wind turbine - hear Alistair's fantastic story of perseverance that earned him one of the most coveted apprenticeships in the country, what his renewables family means to him....and his dodgy taste in music.
