Develop methodologies to create future grid and weather scenarios across timescales ranging from hours to years which preserves variable relationships and correlations
Use Monte Carlo simulations and other statistical techniques to build probabilistic forecasts across varying time horizons
Collaborate with the data science team to integrate scenario generation into physics-based and AI grid models
Evaluation, quantifying, and monitoring performance of scenario generation in terms of coverage, accuracy, and variability
Analyze variable sensitivities and their influence on forecast outputs
Interface with business stakeholders to understand critical use cases and define modeling parameters accordingly
