Power Analyst is research and modeling of supply and demand fundamentals and grid congestion in the US ISO markets. The Power Analyst will work closely with a team of energy traders.
Must have strong quantitative, research and analytical skills. Must be comfortable and confident working with large datasets.
The Power Analyst will build and manage models, particularly Optimal Power Flow (OPF) models, intended to predict electricity market prices and identify potential trading opportunities. Experience with the electricity market simulation tool DAYZER is strongly desired, but can be substituted with a very strong academic understanding of power flow and power economics. The Power Analyst would ideally also be self-sufficient in accessing, managing and dissecting voluminous data on the power markets and constantly improving and calibrating our modeling efforts to real world outcomes. Proficiency with programming tools such as SQL, Python and/or R is also strongly desired.
Requirements:
- MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Operations Research or related field
- 2+ years of experience electricity market simulation tool DAYZER
- 2+ years of experience with Python or R
