E.ON Inhouse Consulting Case: Heating Systems
The European Union pursues the target of lowering the CO₂ emissions of their residents. Therefore, the EU introduced a CO₂ tax to create incentives for consumers to switch to more climate friendly alternatives and stabilize carbon dioxide emissions. Accordingly, and as E.ON’s strategy focuses on creating a better tomorrow for its customers, E.ON is investing significantly to grow its ‘Customer solutions’ area with climate-friendly solutions, including its heating solutions business. You have recently joined E.ON Inhouse Consulting and E.ON’s Head of Heating Solutions has hired you to conduct an analysis concerning the European CO₂ tax.

Strategic Growth in Renewable Energy Technologies

The Energy Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) business is growing rapidly and represents one of E.ON’s key business areas. EIS plays an important role in shaping the energy transition in cities and industries. To capture the significant growth potential, particularly in light of the acceleration driven by municipal heat planning, it was identified early on that the EIS business requires a clearly defined Renewable Energy Solutions (RES) strategy to ensure a green electricity supply for its customers.

Accelerating E.ON’s Grid Expansion for Renewables

Political ambitions to accelerate the energy transition have increased significantly in recent years. In particular, the German government adopted the so-called “Easter Package,” which effectively quadruples the required expansion rate for renewable energy. A subsequent project demonstrated that the distribution grid will form the backbone of this transformation and needs to be expanded significantly faster than previously planned. Against this backdrop, Project Bob aimed to identify ways to “build better” and ensure that E.ON’s distribution grid can be expanded quickly enough to enable the rapid transition to renewable energy.

E.ON’s IT Transformation

At a time when the energy sector is rapidly digitalizing to keep pace with increasing demands and growth ambitions, E.ON has already made significant progress on its path toward becoming a fully digital company, including through cloud migration and the closure of data centers. To further accelerate this development, digital technology teams across the E.ON Group need to be enabled to increase their value contribution through innovation, faster time-to-market, and high quality. Achieving this requires ensuring that E.ON’s IT is future-ready and equipped with the latest technologies, capabilities, and working methods.

Frequently Asked Questions About E.ON Inhouse Consulting

E.ON Inhouse Consulting places particular emphasis on outstanding academic performance in Business Administrations, Economics, Engineering, or STEM subjects; relevant internships – preferably in consulting and/or the energy sector; as well as international experience and fluent English skills. In addition, an entrepreneurial and innovative mindset, an independent and solution-oriented way of working, excellent communication skills, and, of course, enthusiasm for the energy industry and an affinity for numbers are important.

The main working and communication language at E.ON Inhouse Consulting is English, as colleagues of many different nationalities work together. Therefore, fluent German is not strictly required. However, as many projects are conducted in German and require fluent language skills, a certain balance of German-speaking and non-German-speaking talents must be maintained.

E.ON Inhouse Consulting does not offer a specific option for speculative applications, as positions for Visiting Consultant, Consultant, and Senior Consultant (and in some cases other roles) are continuously advertise and open. This means you can apply to E.ON Inhouse Consulting at any time throughout the year.
