We are looking for an Analyst/Senior Analyst with a solid understanding of the
technical and policy aspects of energy storage and its applications in the
energy and power sector. The candidate should be able to meet project
deliverables and timelines and coordinate and communicate effectively with
internal and external teams to achieve project objectives.
Responsibilities
* Conduct research and analysis on energy storage and its applications in
electricity distribution networks.
* Undertake research on the sizing and siting of energy storage in
distribution networks.
* Undertake economic analysis in the energy and power sector, including
energy storage, renewable energy, electric mobility, and electricity
transmission and distribution, to support policy decisions.
* Conduct research on least-cost resource planning for different states, load
flow, short-circuit, reliability, and contingency analysis for transmission and
distribution networks.
* Conduct power-system modelling and simulation studies using appropriate
software and tools.
* Develop financial and econometric models related to the energy and power
sector.
* Compile energy market data and analyse market trends, including demand,
supply, and price projections.
* Establish communication and coordinate with relevant stakeholders,
including government, industry, and academia, for data and analysis related to
the energy and power sector.
* Document and publish research findings through detailed reports, journals,
conferences, op-eds, and newsletters.
Qualifications and Experience
MTech in Energy/Power or an equivalent degree in a related field; up to 6
years of relevant professional experience in energy and economic modelling and
writing high-quality research reports, including white papers, journals, and
policy briefs. Freshers are welcome to apply.
Skill Set
* Strong understanding of electricity distribution systems, renewable-energy
integration, energy-storage applications, and emerging flexibility mechanisms
such as virtual power plants (VPPs) is essential.
* Expertise in load-flow, short-circuit, reliability, and contingency
analysis, as well as distribution network modelling for energy storage, using
relevant power-system software is required.
* Experience in least-cost resource planning, power-system planning and
simulation, power-flow analysis, forecasting, market penetration, cost-benefit
and life-cycle cost analysis, and impact and consequence assessment in the
power sector is desirable.
* Willingness to undertake technical and policy research in the energy domain
and prepare medium- to long-term energy sector outlook reports for various
states is expected.
* Experience working with generating companies, distribution utilities,
renewable nodal agencies, regulatory commissions, ministries, and government
bodies will be an advantage.
* Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Word, PowerPoint, and Excel,
is required.
* Strong written and oral communication skills, with good interpersonal
skills and the ability to express concepts and ideas clearly, are essential.
* Ability to make effective and timely decisions and work effectively in a
multi-functional team is expected.
* Willingness to travel frequently to collect necessary data and discuss
study findings is required.
* Hands-on experience with power-system simulation and planning tools,
particularly DIgSILENT PowerFactory, GridPath, PSCAD, and ETAP, will be
preferred.
* Experience with optimisation tools or solvers used for mixed-integer linear
programming (MILP)-based modelling is desirable.
* Competence in Python, R, SAS, Tableau, SPSS, or similar software and
statistical tools for developing economic models and deriving results will be
an advantage.
