I am Sofia Knuuttila, an electrical engineer specialised in distribution and industry automation with multiple years of experience in testing and validating battery systems according to customer requirements and industry standards. I have also worked as a responsible person for electrical safety.
My educational backround as well as professional experience has given me solid expertise in developing sustainable solutions for the energy sector.
Now I have the opportunity to apply my skills by volunteering on a project organised by EcoSwell in Northern Peru. EcoSwell is a registered non-profit NGO that supports vulnerable communities sustainable solutions, by for example bringing clean solar and wind power to the areas, enabling energy efficient infrastructure and improving quality of life in a sustainable way.
I will be working as a "Renewable energy intern" for EcoSwell three months. The costs consist of payments for EcoSwell and Volunteer World that helped me to find EcoSwell and their volunteering programmes.
