Sr. Power System Engineer (PPC / MPPC / EMS – Renewable Energy)

Chennai, HQ

Full time

IT

Posted: Aug 25, 2026

Position Overview

We are seeking a Power System Engineer to lead simulation modelling, benchmarking, and real-time validation of Power Plant Controllers (PPC), Master Power Plant Controllers (MPPC), and Energy Management System (EMS) controllers for Renewable Power Plants — Solar, Wind, BESS, and Hybrid/Master-structure configurations. The role combines offline simulation modelling, SIL/HIL testing, real-time system validation, and grid-code compliance reporting, with close coordination across internal teams, clients, test labs, and regional/national grid authorities.

Key Responsibilities

Simulation Modelling & Controller Design

• Develop and maintain PPC, MPPC, and EMS controller simulation models for Solar, Wind, BESS, and Hybrid renewable power plants, including case-specific Master Controller structures.
• Model plant and controller behaviour in PSS®E, PSCAD,



and MATLAB/Simulink to represent RMS and EMT (fast transient/harmonic) dynamics as applicable.
• Implement and validate control logic including droop control, frequency response services (PFR/FFR), ROCOF-based triggers, voltage/reactive power control, SoC-based dispatch, and dead-band/ramp-rate behaviour.
• Translate grid code and client technical requirements into simulation model specifications and control logic design documents.

SIL / HIL Testing

• Plan, execute, and coordinate Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing with internal test benches and external test laboratories.
• Configure and operate real-time simulation platforms such as RTDS and OPAL-RT/HYPERSIM to interface simulated plant models with real PPC/MPPC/EMS hardware.
• Validate controller performance against grid code requirements (e.g., CEA Grid Code, IEGC) under both SIL and HIL environments.
• Prepare detailed SIL/HIL test procedures, test case
