Coastal Energy

“Absolutely delighted to host another intern this year and look forward to supporting again in the future.”
Stacy Short, HR Advisor, ASCO UK

The Coastal Energy scheme offers high-quality, paid internship opportunities for sixth form students, giving them a deeper understanding of what jobs are available in the energy industry, whilst providing a placement that utilises and enhances their STEM skills in a business environment.

Students who complete an internship receive a bursary to contribute towards the costs of travel and other expenses during their placement. As part of their placement, interns complete a project report which can also be submitted for a CREST award.

“It has definitely given me some other ideas and different paths I can take in the future. This includes the different industries such as working in or out of an office as they both have their different perks […] I would certainly include the possibility of working with RWE as they are looking for a brighter future and will have many jobs available either in an office or working with the wind turbines.”
