About Our Client

Our client invests, develops, operates and manages renewable energy assets consisting of Solar, Wind, Battery Energy Storage. Our client has a GTC in India providing design, development, procurement and other services.

Job Description

  • Perform detailed energy yield simulations using PVsyst for solar PV plants, including hybrid systems with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), to support offtake agreements and Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) bids.
  • Model and optimize hybrid solar + storage systems, ensuring effective integration of BESS to maximize energy output, storage utilization, and financial returns for PPA bids or offtake participations.
  • Gather and analyze meteorological data, site conditions, and system design parameters to ensure accurate inputs for yield predictions, including for bids and contractual agreements.
  • Review system layouts, electrical configurations, and shading analysis for both solar and hybrid systems, optimizing plant performance and aligning designs with PPA requirements.
  • Identify and quantify losses in PV and BESS systems, while conducting risk analysis related to yield uncertainty and weather variability to inform PPA and offtake agreements.
  • Recommend strategies for optimizing plant design, energy dispatch, and system configurations to enhance yield, reduce losses, and maximize financial returns for PPA bids.
  • Prepare detailed yield reports, including sensitivity and risk analyses, for stakeholders involved in offtake agreements, PPA bids, and investment decisions.
  • Work closely with engineering, legal, and commercial teams to ensure yield models align with PPA terms, bid strategies, and overall project feasibility.
  • Compare predicted yields with actual performance, updating models and improving future forecasts for both PV and hybrid systems.
  • Assist in improving internal tools for energy yield estimation, optimization, and bid scenario modeling, including BESS integration.
  • Ensure that all yield predictions comply with industry standards and regulatory requirements for both solar and hybrid systems.
  • Stay updated on the latest PV, BESS, and hybrid technology trends, industry developments, and PVsyst software enhancements to improve yield accuracy and system performance.
