Sebastian Papapanagiotou - My Power Grids Story

"I get inspired by everything that supports the clean energy transition in line with the sustainable development goals and Hitachi ABB Power Grids, with its technological innovations, is truly following this pathway.

When I look at Hitachi ABB Power Grids’ team culture, I must say that I am vary glad being in an environment with a large diversity and enjoying a global team spirit. This gives me the great opportunity to learn different views and get the best out of it, while permanently learning from each other.

I am lucky to be currently seconded by Hitachi ABB Power Grids to the International Energy Agency (IEA) by giving consultancy on power grids, to support the clean energy transition. Together, with great contributions from Hitachi ABB Power Grids colleagues, we highlight the integration of high amount of variable renewable energies to shape the power system of the future.

Becoming part of Hitachi excites me, as Hitachi with its values of social innovation plus the values of Power Grids on a cleaner, greener and smarter grid is a perfect match, forming the global leadership on a sustainable society."
