Power System Analyst with focus on Grid Integration

Power System Analyst with focus on Grid Integration and Power System Innovation, Fredericia, Denmark (186240)


The Danish power system is undergoing significant technical changes. The green power system of the future will be significantly more complex and behave in a very different way compared to today. Energy production is taken over by technologies such as wind and solar, and in addition to this, an ever-increasing number of HVDC-based inter-connectors are established. Most recently, as part of the green transition, it has been decided that Denmark will realise two energy islands. Energinet is the Danish system operator in facilitating the green transition and must ensure that the power system can be operated in a stable manner, today and in the future.

You will be part of an organisation where flexibility and work life in balance are high on the agenda. You will therefore be offered equipment for a good home workplace in order to be able to vary in the best possible way with being at our head office in Fredericia and at home.


Directly linked to the green transition

As a Power System Analyst in the Department Power System Design, you will contribute directly to the foundation of the Danish green transition. You will be part of two groups one responsible for grid integration of various types of production and consumption type plants, and another working on power system concept and technology development for the future power system. You will hence both work with practical grid integration cases and contribute to the development of the future Danish power system ensuring it can be operated securely and efficient as the green transition progresses.

Your key responsibilities are:
- Act as technical responsible for grid integration of cases with several technologies including solar power plants, wind power plants, data centres and PtX-plants.
- Conduct grid integration studies and participate in grid connection groups with customers for solar, wind, data centres and PtX-plant projects.
- Contribute to the continuous development of grid codes.
- Contribute to innovative power system development project with a focus on the secure and efficient operation of the Danish future power system.
- Undertake power system stability assessment using various analytical tools including phasor-based and electromagnetic transient tools (eg. PowerFactory and PSCAD).
- Participate in the international working groups, for common interests of the system design and developments at a European level.

You can look forward to an exciting job with great responsibility, variety, and complexity. You will work closely with 17 highly specialized colleagues, and you will be at the centre of the decision-making to ensure the stability of the future green power system.
