Open Energy Transition remote jobs and company guide

At the heart of Open Energy Transition (OET) is a profound commitment to accelerating the global shift towards a sustainable, zero-carbon future through the power of openness and collaboration. Founded in 2023 as a non-profit organization, OET operates on the belief that the complex challenges of energy planning cannot be solved in isolation or through 'black-box' proprietary methods. Instead, the company fosters a culture of transparency, where open-source tools and open data serve as the foundation for reliable, reproducible, and accessible energy system modeling. This approach empowers governments, system operators, and researchers worldwide to make evidence-based decisions that drive real-world impact.

The team at Open Energy Transition is a diverse, global collective of energy system modelers, software engineers, and analysts who are united by a shared mission to democratize energy planning. As a remote-first organization, OET values autonomy, trust, and flexible collaboration, allowing its experts to contribute from anywhere in the world. They are the creators and maintainers of the PyPSA ecosystem, a suite of widely adopted open-source tools that are revolutionizing how energy grids are planned and optimized. By bridging the gap between cutting-edge research and industrial application, OET is building a community-driven future where energy solutions are not just efficient and cost-effective, but also equitable and open to all.
