- Perform technical assessment and component sizing for PV modules, inverters, batteries, and PCS.
- Support system integration studies, including AC/DC coupling configurations, control logics, and operational modes.
- Prepare and review tendering specifications, employer requirements, and design packages for BESS components and hybrid systems.
- Conduct energy yield assessments (PVsyst), loss analysis, and design optimization to support commercial and pre-bid teams.
- Review and validate electrical studies including load flow, short-circuit, and protection coordination.
- Coordinate with grid interconnection and protection teams for compliance with CEA, IEC, and IEEE standards.
- Vendor Evaluation & Technical Qualification
- Lead technical evaluation and qualification of solar and BESS component vendors.
- Review test reports, certifications (IEC, UL, IS), and field performance data.
- Participate in factory and site inspections (FAT/SAT) and ensure compliance with design and quality requirements.
- Technical Analysis & Support
- Conduct BESS techno-economic studies, evaluating performance, sizing, and lifetime degradation.
- Review and benchmark OEM proposals for performance, safety, and reliability.
- Support troubleshooting and post-commissioning technical investigations.
- Collaboration & Continuous Improvement
- Work closely with Pre-Bid, D&E, Quality, and Procurement teams for design alignment and cost optimization.
- Continuously update design standards based on new inverter and BESS technologies.
- Provide training and knowledge sharing within the engineering function on hybrid and storage systems.
Requirements
Skills and Qualifications:
- Education: B.E./B.Tech or M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or Renewable Energy.
- Experience: 58 years in solar PV and BESS engineering, preferably in IPP or EPC environments.
- Technical Competencies:
- Strong understanding of PV and BESS design principles system sizing, energy management, and protection design.
- Proficient in PVsyst, AutoCAD, PVCase, ETAP, and MS Office.
- Familiarity with BESS simulation or sizing tools (e.g., Homer, MATLAB, or vendor-specific software).
- Working knowledge of standards: IEC 62933, IEC 62109, IEEE 1547, IS 16221, CEA Grid Code.
- Soft Skills: Strong analytical, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
- Adaptability: Able to manage multiple projects in a dynamic renewable energy environment.
Benefits
What to Expect:
- Work at the forefront of emerging technologies hybrid solar, energy storage, and hydrogen readiness.
- Opportunity to shape Enerparc's design standardisation and technical frameworks.
- Exposure to cross-country collaboration with global Enerparc teams.
- Occasional travel for vendor evaluations, factory inspections, and project reviews.
- Strong professional and technical growth opportunities within a global renewable energy leader.
