About Tesla Holdings
Tesla Holdings currently operates four peaking power plants in Western Australia. Our innovative transition program is shifting operations from diesel to more sustainable battery-based systems.

- Understanding of project development principles and interest in renewable energy.
- Strong analytical and organisational skills with attention to detail.
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
- Ability to work collaboratively while taking ownership of individual tasks.
