Grid Study Engineer

As a Grid Studies Engineer, you will be performing Grid Studies aiming to evaluate compliance to Wind Farm developer’s requirements for offshore projects.

Responsibilities:

You will provide simulations and reports to SGRE’s Grid Engineer Managers, more specifically, your assignments will cover:

• Grid Code and Developer-requirement analysis.
• Modeling of Offshore Wind Farms; these models will be used to perform steady state, dynamic, transient and frequency domain simulations.
• Perform Steady State simulations to evaluate compliance to requirements related to: Short Circuit, PQ capability, Voltage limits, overloading of equipment, other simulations in the steady state domain.
• Perform Dynamic simulations (RMS) to evaluate compliance to requirements such as FRT, voltage stability, frequency stability, other simulations in the dynamic domain.
• Perform Transient simulations (EMT) to evaluate compliance to requirements such as Inrush current, fast transients, voltage stability, frequency stability, other simulations in the transient domain.
• Perform Transient simulations (EMT) to evaluate compliance to requirements such as Inrush current, fast transients, voltage stability, frequency stability, other simulations in the transient domain.
• Create scripts to automate the above described simulations.
• Write reports where the input data, results and conclusions of the above simulations will be clearly described.
• Support SGRE Park Control Lead Engineers on Field Tests related activities.
• Support SGRE Grid Engineer Managers to communicate and defend the results and conclusions written in the studies reports.
• Support SGRE Grid Engineer Managers to prepare the studies scope of work; which will include the planning of Input data, timeline, description of studies execution and how the results will be presented.
• Technical support to project and sales teams.
