Job Description

The Renewable Energy Studies & Design Engineer will support the technical development of utility-scale solar PV, wind, and battery energy storage projects. This role involves assisting with engineering studies, design documentation, and grid integration analysis under the guidance of senior engineers. The successful candidate will contribute to feasibility assessments, data analysis, and technical reporting, while collaborating with internal teams and external stakeholders. This position offers an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in renewable energy project development and grow within a multidisciplinary engineering environment.
Requirements
1. Technical Studies & Analysis

• Perform and review electrical studies including load flow, short-circuit, transient stability, protection coordination, and harmonic analysis.
• Conduct energy yield assessments using tools such as PVsyst, WindPro, WAsP, or equivalent.
• Develop grid connection studies (steady-state, dynamic, and fault studies) in software such as DIgSILENT PowerFactory, PSSE, or ETAP.
• Support hybrid system modelling integrating solar, wind, and battery storage technologies.

2. System & Plant Design

• Lead conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design of renewable energy systems (LV, MV, and HV levels).
• Prepare single-line diagrams (SLDs), equipment specifications, and layout drawings.
• Evaluate and specify Wind systems, inverters, transformers, switchgear, cables, and protection systems.
• Optimize plant performance, reliability, and cost through design iterations and simulations.

3. Project Development Support

• Provide technical input during feasibility studies, due diligence, and bid preparation.
• Support permitting, environmental, and grid connection applications with relevant technical data.
• Review and approve technical deliverables from third-party consultants or contractors.

4. Standards, Compliance & Quality

• Ensure all designs and studies comply with international and local grid codes, IEC standards, and utility requirements.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of renewable technologies, grid regulations, and industry best practices.
• Contribute to internal design standards, templates, and process improvements.

Qualifications & Experience
Education:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical, Renewable Energy, Power Systems, or a related engineering discipline.

Experience:

• Minimum 1- 3 years' experience in renewable energy design and grid studies.
• Proven track record in solar PV, wind, or hybrid energy system design and analysis.
• Experience working with utilities, IPPs, or EPC contractors in grid-connected projects.

Technical Competencies:

• Proficiency with software such as DIgSILENT PowerFactory, PSSE, ETAP, PVsyst, HOMER, AutoCAD, or Helioscope.
• Strong understanding of grid codes, protection systems, and interconnection requirements.
• Familiar with SCADA systems, plant controllers, and grid-forming inverter concepts (advantageous).

Soft Skills:

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills.
• Excellent communication and technical reporting abilities.
• Collaborative, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

• Accuracy and quality of technical studies and designs.
• Timely delivery of engineering deliverables.
• Compliance with grid and regulatory requirements.
• Cost optimization and performance improvement of designs.
• Technical support effectiveness to internal and external stakeholders.
