Job Description
As a Power Systems Modelling & Simulation Engineer, you will develop and run models for power flow, stability, and grid integration of renewables, storage, and microgrids. You’ll apply industry-standard tools, work to UK grid codes (G98/G99), and produce clear technical artefacts that inform engineering decisions and stakeholder communication.
Responsibilities
- Modelling & Studies – Build and execute studies for power flow, voltage stability, and connection assessments.
- Tooling – Use DIgSILENT PowerFactory, PSCAD, MATLAB/Simulink (as applicable) to simulate distributed generation and storage.
- Grid Codes & Compliance – Interpret and apply G98/G99 requirements to modelling scenarios and results.
- Reporting & Communication – Produce concise technical reports, model documentation, and scenario comparisons.
- Collaboration – Work with software and product engineers to translate findings into practical platform and integration requirements.
Qualifications
- Experience with PowerFactory/PSCAD/MATLAB-Simulink for grid studies.
- Understanding of G98/G99 and UK distribution-level connection considerations.
- Ability to construct, calibrate, and validate simulation models for distributed generation and storage.
- Strong analytical writing and structured presentation of results.
