Financial Modeller – Grid-Scale Energy Storage

Energy Dome is hiring a Financial Modeller for their grid-scale energy storage projects in Piemonte, Italy. The role involves developing financial models for long-duration energy storage, supporting investment decisions, and collaborating with various teams. Candidates should have 3-5 years of financial modelling experience, particularly in renewable energy. The position offers a chance to contribute to innovative energy solutions and the global transition to renewable energy.
Energy Dome is the owner and developer of CO2 Battery technology, a ground-breaking innovation that uses carbon dioxide in a closed-loop thermodynamic process to provide efficient, affordable long-duration energy storage (LDES) for intermittent renewables—key to enabling decarbonization of the global power system. The CO2 Battery is already proven in operation at Energy Dome’s MW-scale demonstration project in Sardinia, Italy. The company is expanding rapidly, with full-scale (20MW / 200MWh) commercial projects under construction or awarded in Italy, the United States, and India. Energy Dome has a robust pipeline across the USA, EU, UK, Australia, Chile, and other key markets.

The CO2 Battery is a standardized, modular product using off-the-shelf industrial components with established global supply chains, enabling rapid scaling and adoption in key markets. Energy Dome offers the CO2 Battery both as a technology supplier (OEM) and through an “energy storage-as-a-service” or Build-Own-Operate (BOO) model. The BOO arm is experiencing significant growth with projects in operation and a backlog of projects in development and contracting. This service caters to customers preferring long-term capacity offtake agreements with Energy Dome.
