What is your background, your training?
My training path has always been linked to the world of electrical engineering. First of all, I took a baccalaureate in Electrical Engineering at the STI, then a BTS in Electrical Engineering. My professional career began in an industrial plant (pipe mill) where I carried out electrical and electronic maintenance and automation assignments. Then I joined the SNCF for 3 years to deal with railway maintenance, in particular on-board computers and automatisms, with a view to passenger and personal safety. After a year in the design office, I joined VALEMO last June as a maintenance technician for the Bègles centre.
What are your missions?
Ninety percent of these are dedicated to photovoltaics, with the remaining 10% dedicated to hydroelectricity with the Claredent power plant. They are preventive and curative maintenance. I work on different, complementary technologies, whether it's inverters, trackers or shading systems for shopping centres. I also carry out HT maintenance missions on delivery stations. I intervene within the framework of regulatory inspections and controls (fire extinguishers, BAES emergency equipment).
For hydroelectricity, I also carry out curative, preventive and HV maintenance.
Which missions do you enjoy the most?
Not coming initially from the world of renewables, I appreciate being 90% dedicated to one type of energy, it allows me to acquire expertise more easily. I would like to salute here the confidence shown in me by VALEMO's management, as well as the team's pedagogy and genuine commitment to passing on its knowledge. This allows me to become autonomous quickly and under the best conditions. This is what is important to me today: to be independent and to be able to provide a concrete solution to a problem, in a forward-looking approach.
