Compensation
The pay range for this position based on full-time employment is: $119,323.00 - $202,850.00
Responsibilities
Lead transient stability and dynamic simulation studies for utility planning and interconnection work using PSS/E, PSLF, and TSAT, evaluating conventional generation, inverter-based resources (IBR), and battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Develop, review, validate, and tune dynamic models, including generic renewable models (e.g., WECC) and user-defined models, through model quality tests such as flat-start, step-response, and fault ride-through checks.
Assess stability performance against NERC TPL-001 and regional planning criteria and PRC-024/PRC-029 ride-through requirements, including voltage recovery, damping and oscillatory behavior, and critical clearing times.
Perform voltage stability (PV/QV), weak-grid, and short-circuit-ratio screening, and coordinate with electromagnetic transient (EMT) studies where needed.
Perform NERC reliability standards studies and assessments, including TPL-001 stability analysis and MOD-026/027/032/033 model verification and validation.
