POSITION CONCEPT
Develop the long term distribution reliability plan for Energy Delivery. Conduct detailed analysis that accounts for contingencies of various elements of the distribution system. Model various distributed energy sources on the distribution system (solar, batteries, EVs) and analyze long term impacts to the system. Perform Fault Location, Isolation and Service Restoration (FLISR) analysis and recommend projects needed to ensure the distribution system is capable of handling various contingency scenarios. Coordinate plans and projects with System Planning, various Grid Modernization teams and the Distribution Control Center (DCC).
PRIMARY DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES (D&R)
- Perform long term FLISR analysis to ensure proper reserves on the distribution system, and if not recommend long term mitigation projects.
- Coordinate with GIS team, System Planning, Grid Modernization and DCC to model the most accurate current and long term forecasts in the load flow analysis software.
- Analyze new load flow software and new software functionality in order to more easily model and analyze various impacts of DERs and EVs along with FLISR.
- Perform contingency analysis for various reliability teams as needed
- Coordinate with SPP, Distribution Engineering, DCC, RTU and other departments to ensure FLISR projects are implemented properly.
