NHOA Energy’s service platform combines global best practice with client proximity, enabling a tailored offering. We are committed to exceptional user experience, leveraging cutting-edge pre-emptive maintenance technology and immediate response capabilities to guarantee unparalleled availability.
Innovation, human capital, organization, financial strength and a flawless reputation of excellence, integrity and sustainability are the basis of our competitive advantage.
Position
ThePower System Engineeris a key contributor within the Power System R&D team, directly supporting the development and advancement of NHOA Energy's cutting-edge technology platform. Reporting to the Head of Power System R&D, this role is responsible for the full value chain of Power Plant Controller (PPC) development, including conceptualization, design, simulation, hardware testing, and commissioning. The Power System PPC Engineer will play a pivotal role in creating and implementing control strategies, performing system simulations, conducting hardware-in-the-loop testing, and enhancing power system modelling capabilities to ensure optimal product performance.
Tasks and Duties
· Design and implement advanced power system control strategies in Simulink for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
· Perform rigorous testing and validation of power system controllers in both simulation (Simulink) and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments prior to commissioning.
· Collaborate with Control, Software, and Project Engineers to support the design, development, and commissioning of new plants.
· Enhance in-house modelling capabilities for NHOA products using tools such as PSCAD, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, and PSS/E, ensuring accurate and reliable representations of system performance.
· Develop and maintain detailed power system models to support system design, grid integration, and compliance with grid codes.
· Work closely with R&D teams to drive innovation in field-oriented functionalities.
· Provide technical support to Project Engineers and Control & Software teams during the commissioning of NHOA power plants worldwide.
Requirements
o Educational Background: MSc in Electrical Engineering, Automation and Control Engineering, Energy Engineering, or Industrial Engineering. A PhD in Power Systems Controls is preferred.
o Strong proficiency in Matlab, Simulink, and scripting.
o Familiarity with coding languages such as C++, Fortran, and Python.
o Knowledge of at least one power system modelling tool (e.g., PSCAD, EMTP-RV, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, or PSS/E), with experience in user-defined models.
o Familiarity with HIL tools such as RTDS, Typhoon, or OPAL-RT.
o Background in control theory, including small-signal stability analysis, Bode and Nyquist plots, and dynamic system response evaluation.
o Experience in control schemes for synchronous generators and inverter-based resources, including grid-forming operations.
· Grid Modelling: Proficiency in modelling both large and small grids, with a deep understanding of grid-level performance requirements such as voltage stability, harmonic compliance, and fault ride-through.
· Languages: Proficiency in English and Italian is essential; knowledge of Mandarin is a plus.
· Software and Tools: Familiarity with version control platforms such as Git and other development tools.
· Communication and Collaboration: Strong skills in managing internal and external stakeholders.
