Power Generation Journalist
Company overview
Voltility is a market intelligence platform for the people building, powering and financing the energy transition and data centre power markets. We track battery storage and hybrid power projects across the US and Europe, and in 2026 launched data-centre power coverage.
Following new investment we're growing the team quickly, so this is a chance to join early and help shape the business at an exciting time.
Role overview
The Generation Journalist breaks the stories that matter across US storage, hybrid and generation development. You'll build a network across the market and land news on projects, offtake and financing before it is public.
At Voltility, every scoop is a data point: a tolling agreement signed, a project reaching FID, a developer changing EPC or exiting a market. Your intelligence goes straight into the data our customers rely on, not just a headline. Writing is short-form; the real output is verified information that gives subscribers an edge.
Key responsibilities
- Build and work a network of sources across developers, IPPs, offtakers, utilities, OEMs, EPCs, lenders, tax equity investors and advisers
- Chase and land scoops on milestones across a project delivery lifecycle
- Verify information to Voltility's sourcing standard before it is used, and record source, date and confidence
- Work daily with the wider team to decide what to chase and adapt outbound efforts to what sources are saying
- Pass leads, rumours and partial information to researchers for follow-up and QA
- Attend industry events, meetings and conferences to build relationships and pick up intelligence
- Write short, factual items for the platform and newsletter where they support subscriber value or source relationships
- Protect sources and handle sensitive information appropriately
Suggested experience
- Background as a reporter or researcher covering power markets, renewables, storage or project finance, with a track record of breaking stories
- An existing network of sources among US developers, offtakers or energy financiers
- Comfortable working as part of a wider data research team
- Persistent, discreet and good on the phone
