System Engineer - Solar And BESS

Job Description

Job Summary

The Systems Engineer (Solar & BESS) will be responsible for the technical design, standardisation, and evaluation of solar photovoltaic (PV) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) for Enerparc India’s utility-scale projects. The role includes developing standardised designs, performing technical due diligence, supporting vendor qualification, and coordinating cross-functionally for hybrid and advanced technology integration. The position demands strong technical expertise in PV and BESS systems, electrical engineering fundamentals, and an understanding of grid integration and techno-economic optimization.

Key Responsibilities

• Design & Engineering
• Develop and maintain standardised system designs for PV and BESS including SLDs, layouts, and control philosophies.
• Perform technical assessment and component sizing for PV modules, inverters, batteries, and PCS.
• Support system integration studies, including AC/DC coupling configurations, control logics, and operational modes.
• Prepare and review tendering specifications, employer requirements, and design packages for BESS components and hybrid systems.
• Conduct energy yield assessments (PVsyst), loss analysis, and design optimization to support commercial and pre-bid teams.
• Review and validate electrical studies including load flow, short-circuit, and protection coordination.
• Coordinate with grid interconnection and protection teams for compliance with CEA, IEC, and IEEE standards.
• Vendor Evaluation & Technical Qualification
• Lead technical evaluation and qualification of solar and BESS component vendors.
• Review test reports, certifications (IEC, UL, IS), and field performance data.
• Participate in factory and site inspections (FAT/SAT) and ensure compliance with design and quality requirements.
• Technical Analysis & Support
• Conduct BESS techno-economic studies, evaluating performance, sizing, and lifetime degradation.
• Review and benchmark OEM proposals for performance, safety, and reliability.
• Support troubleshooting and post-commissioning technical investigations.
• Collaboration & Continuous Improvement
• Work closely with Pre-Bid, D&E, Quality, and Procurement teams for design alignment and cost optimization.
• Continuously update design standards based on new inverter and BESS technologies.
• Provide training and knowledge sharing within the engineering function on hybrid and storage systems.
  
  

Requirements

Skills and Qualifications:

• Education: B.E./B.Tech or M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or Renewable Energy.
• Experience: 5–8 years in solar PV and BESS engineering, preferably in IPP or EPC environments.
• Technical Competencies:
• Strong understanding of PV and BESS design principles – system sizing, energy management, and protection design.
• Proficient in PVsyst, AutoCAD, PVCase, ETAP, and MS Office.
• Familiarity with BESS simulation or sizing tools (e.g., Homer, MATLAB, or vendor-specific software).
• Working knowledge of standards: IEC 62933, IEC 62109, IEEE 1547, IS 16221, CEA Grid Code.
• Soft Skills: Strong analytical, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Adaptability: Able to manage multiple projects in a dynamic renewable energy environment.
  

Benefits

What to Expect:

• Work at the forefront of emerging technologies — hybrid solar, energy storage, and hydrogen readiness.
• Opportunity to shape Enerparc’s design standardisation and technical frameworks.
• Exposure to cross-country collaboration with global Enerparc teams.
• Occasional travel for vendor evaluations, factory inspections, and project reviews.
• Strong professional and technical growth opportunities within a global renewable energy leader.
