• Lead and work with Consultants on the Modeling of energy storage systems using software suites such as PVSyst, ESyst, ESVT, etc.

• Analysis of project requirements and recommendation of appropriate energy storage technology & optimal energy storage system sizing

• Determination of most appropriate project components for project optimization (ie: modules, inverters, racking, balance of supplies, etc.) based on project requirements, restrictions & client preferences

• Preparation of preliminary solar energy system civil, electrical & mechanical designs, including foundation/mounting plans, racking & module layouts, and single line diagrams

• Working with third-party consultants to review preliminary designs & produce final issued-for-construction drawings

• Lead technology selection, procurement initiatives, and project dependencies to ensure targeted development and construction outcomes are achieved (i.e., projects delivered safely, on-time, and on-budget).

• Lead role in construction of projects and project delivery efforts.

• Prepare and participate in required transaction approval documentation and presentations for senior management and the Board.

• Support Development staff with engineering related inputs and considerations such as constructability review, equipment assumptions, layout considerations and value engineering feedback.

• Support renewable energy site identification and assessment. Utilize various siting tools to identify and review greenfield opportunities to support the company’s greenfield pipeline goals.

• Develop, clarify, and manage project scope, project execution plans, track and manage contract deliverables, HS&E requirements, insurance needs and QA/QC plans.

• Assist in RFP responses and/or sales processes.

• Support continuous improvement of our key development principles as well as identifying new opportunities to improve project execution and operational efficiencies.

EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS REQUIRED:

• Undergraduate degree in Engineering. P.Eng in Canada or US.
