Job Description
Requisition:76579
PSEG Company:PSEG Long Island
Salary Range: $79800- $131700
Incentive:PIP 10%
Work Location Category:Remote Local
PSEG operates under a Flexible Work Model where flexible work is offered when job requirements allow. In support of this model roles have been categorized into one of four work location categories: onsite roles hybrid roles that are a blend of onsite and remote work remote local roles that are primarily home-based but require some level of purpose-driven in-person interaction and living within a commutable distance and remote non-local roles that can be effectively performed remotely with the ability to work in approved states.
PSEG offers a unique experience to our more than 12000 employees we provide the resources and opportunities for career development that come with being a Fortune 500 company as well as the attention camaraderie and care for one another you might typically associate with a small business. Our focus on combatting climate change through clean energy technology our new net zero climate vision for 2030 and enhanced commitment to diversity equity and inclusion; and supporting the communities we serve make this a particularly exciting time to join PSEG.
Job Summary
This position requires performing electromagnetic transient (EMT) studies for the LIPA transmission system by integrating applicable models for inverter based resources/HVDC/FACTS devices by using PSCAD or other EMT simulation models. This position also develops in-house capability to create applicable EMT models that are required for the analysis. Adequate training and learning opportunities will be provided to develop solid electromagnetic transient skills that is critical to evaluate transient performance of the integrated power system.
Job Responsibilities
Responsibilities include but not limited to:
Develop in-house capability for the development of Electromagnetic transient models and implement a process to organize review and maintain model updates and associated documentation clearly describing steps to setup the model available parameters accessible to the end user and available outputs that are needed for various planning studies.
Develop and implement model validation practices and steps to ensure the validity and accuracy of EMT models
Perform complex electromagnetic transient studies involving transmission and/or distribution system on an as needed basis
Perform various transient studies for interconnecting resources and devices such as inverter based resources or HVDC/FACTS devices as required. Examples of such studies include but are not limited to dynamic performance studies harmonic performance studies sub-synchronous torsional interaction studies control system interaction study temporary overvoltage study etc.
Utilize applicable EMT study models to assess potential solutions to meet system performance requirements
Collaborate with Transmission and Distribution Planning and provide applicable support to both groups in the EMT study areas
Ensure compliance with applicable North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) reliability standards by performing applicable EMT studies. Evaluate proposed / new NERC Standards and continuously monitor for upcoming changes to existing NERC Standards
Support EMT training for planning engineers
Engage with technical consultants to gain understanding of the transient performance of the transmission system and associated interaction with various synchronous and non-synchronous resources.
Actively participate with working groups universities and other utilities to understand fundamental control concepts of resources
Research and collaborate with industry experts to identify and implement best EMT modeling and study practices
Develop methodology/approach to successfully model and interpret analysis utilizing PSCAD or other EMT simulation tools
Demonstrate clear understanding of control design and performance of IBR HVDC or FACTS devices under different scenarios.
