Develop and conduct computer modeling and analysis for transmission planning studies which include steady-state analysis, short circuit analysis, and dynamic stability analysis. Studies may include near-term and long-term transmission planning, generator interconnection studies, reliability-driven transmission project alternatives development, and NERC standards compliance analyses.

How you can make an impact:

• Build static and dynamic power system models, including new technologies such as inverters, wind turbines, and storage systems, potentially interacting with equipment vendors to determine appropriate parameters.
• Perform distribution/transmission import/export analyses (injection/withdrawal studies), generator capability studies, model quality tests, and benchmarking.
• Provide site selection support for new generation projects.
• Assist in the submission of generation and load interconnection applications to various ISOs (e.g., ERCOT and ISOs and utilities in the Western Interconnect).
• Guide clients through ERCOT’s generator interconnection process, answering process-related questions.
• Participate in working group meetings and case-building efforts on behalf of specific clients as assigned.
• Prepare technical study reports for all studies performed.
• Process, generate, and maintain data as required for all studies.
