High Voltage Engineering Specialist (Grid Connection \& HV Systems)
Role Summary
The High Voltage Engineering Specialist is responsible for the design, integration, and compliance of high‑voltage (HV) systems and grid connection interfaces for utility‑scale energy projects (e.g. BESS, renewables).
The role ensures that all HV equipment, grid interfaces, and system studies comply with grid codes, utility requirements, and applicable standards , while supporting project execution from concept through commissioning.
Key Responsibilities
1\. Grid Connection \& Compliance
- Lead development of grid connection concepts and strategies
- Ensure compliance with TSO/DSO requirements and grid codes (e.g. VDE‑AR‑N 4110/4120/4130\)
- Define and review compliance evidence, simulation scope, and certification requirements
- Develop and define operational modes
- Interface with grid operators and support connection studies and approvals
- Design and review HV systems including:
+ Transformers (e.g. 380/33 kV) and auxiliary systems
+ HV cable systems and overhead line interfaces
- Develop and validate:
+ Equipment specifications (switchgear, transformers, protection)
+ Electrical layouts and earthing concepts
+ Ensure integration between HV, MV, and plant systems (BESS / generation)
3\. Protection, Control \& System Integration
- Define and assess:
+ SCADA / PPC / EMS interfaces
- Coordinate interfaces between:
+ Power Conversion System (PCS)
+ Plant control and automation systems
+ Ensure compliance with power quality, dynamic performance and grid\-support requirements
5\. Construction \& Commissioning Support
- Support:
+ Energization procedures and commissioning activities
- Review:
Grid compliance and performance tests
+
Required Qualifications \& Experience
Education
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or equivalent
Extensive experience in:
