Associate Engineer Electric Delivery & Planning
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Engineer to join PSE&G Planning department. As a member of our dynamic team, you will play a crucial role in developing and proposing future Distribution and Transmission system upgrades required to maintain system reliability for the short range and long range planning horizons. You will be responsible for performing various technical analyses, such as interconnection, load-flow, stability, and short circuit studies, to evaluate and optimize the performance of PSE&G's distribution and transmission system. Your expertise will contribute to determining future reinforcements and solutions to mitigate overloads and address other power system issues. This is an exciting opportunity to grow your career in power system planning and make a significant impact on PSE&G's success. Conduct complex power system engineering studies to determine the limitations (thermal, voltage, short-circuit, stability and market efficiency) of the PSE&G transmission and distribution system. Perform engineering analysis to assess the timing of the electric system reinforcements, ensuring the reliability and economic operation of the bulk power system. Analyze potential operating limitations and develop operating procedures to guide system operators. Evaluate the impact of new customer connections and distributed energy resources (DERs) on the distribution system and propose appropriate mitigation measures. Prepare technical reports, presentations, and documentation summarizing analysis results, recommended solutions, and future reinforcement plans. Assist in developing and maintaining distribution system models, databases, and documentation to support planning activities. Maintain and apply a working knowledge of PSE&G business controls to meet management's expectations for effective internal controls. Collaborate closely with divisions and the PJM Regional Transmission Organization planning group to coordinate future expansion plans. Stay updated on industry standards, regulations, and emerging trends in power system planning, incorporating this knowledge to enhance planning methodologies and practices. Required:
Bachelor's Degree in Engineering
0 - 2 years of Utility experience Must possess a valid U.S. driver's license and maintain a satisfactory driving record. Demonstrated ability to work well in a team environment
Possess leadership skills, professionalism, and customer/client focus
Must have effective problem-solving and decision-making skills, strong planning and organizing skills, must be adaptable and results oriented.
Must have strong written and verbal communications skills
Must be willing to work OT as required and perform on-call/emergency support as needed
Strong computer skills in MS Office applications
Must foster an inclusive work environment and respects/encourages all aspects of diversity
Must demonstrate and value differences in others' strengths, perspectives, approaches, and personal choices. Desired:
Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering
System planning experience in a utility environment with knowledge in Regional Transmission Organization planning and operating criteria.
Knowledge of electric transmission and distribution operations, familiarity with inside/outside plant assets and experience in interpreting one-line diagrams, electrical and civil construction drawings.
Working knowledge of power flow, short circuit, stability, and loss of load probabilistic tools.
