Supporting special studies aimed at evaluating the performance of equipment and a grid with a significant penetration of intermittent generation and/or inverter-based resources (IBRs) within a matrixed organizational structure.

Compensation

$105,700—$176,400 USD

Responsibilities

Perform dynamic simulations (PSSE) and transient simulations (EMTP, PSCAD) involving complex control systems modeling, discrete model representation of electric power system network, evaluation of transient response, addressing oscillatory issues, examination of transient phenomena (fault recovery, and transient recovery voltage estimation) affecting power system reliability
Perform studies to efficiently assess the impact of Inverter Based Resources (IBRs) on the grid dynamics and develop mitigation strategies with support from the Principal/Technical Specialist, Grid Transition
Develop detailed engineering study reports, NYISO manuals and other procedures.
Stay up to date with the power system planning industry activities and potential future changes and drivers to adapt the NYISO’s planning process, models, and system analysis techniques.
Use a broad-based knowledge of NYISO’s systems, markets, operations, and processes to develop and improve complex system models used in transmission security and operations engineering to plan and simulate the future electric grid (e.g., 1 through 10 years ahead, or longer as required). Adapt the models and methods to rapid electrical power system changes.
