Power System Studies / Grid Integration Engineer (Renewables)

Project overview

Contract role for a Power System Studies / Grid Integration Engineer (5+ years) to run power system simulations and compliance studies for conventional and renewable (wind) plants. The engineer will perform load flow, short circuit, and dynamic/RMS studies; validate LVRT/HVRT and active/reactive power control; develop/validate WTG and plant controller models; and produce technical/study/compliance reports. Hands-on experience with at least one major tool (PSS®E, PSCAD, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, ETAP) is required, with preference for exposure to Australian grid codes and renewable interconnection compliance.

Responsibilities

• Perform Power System Studies including
• Load Flow Analysis
• Short Circuit Analysis
• Dynamic (RMS) Studies
• Wind/Renewable Energy Grid Integration Studies
• Analyze and validate
• LVRT (Low Voltage Ride Through) and HVRT (High Voltage Ride Through) requirements
• Active and Reactive Power Control
• dQ0 Sequence Concepts
• Plant Controller Behavior
• Grid Code Compliance
• Conduct power system simulations and studies using industry-standard software

Requirements
