Requirements:
The consultant will help to perform different tasks within the SMA team:
* Improve data management process at SMA (set up data warehouse, data pipelines, ..);
* Explore large amount of data coming out of the simulations;
* Benchmarking visualizations from other equivalent studies, i.e. ERAA (ERAA 2025 Reports & Results), TYNDP (Explore | ENTSO-E TYNDP, Visualisation Platform | ENTSOs TYNDP 2024 Scenarios), MLZ (Data Publication), NESO-FES (FES 25
* Interactive dashboard), RTE (Analyses et données), ...
* Benchmarking visualization already available within SMA;
* Create visuals from given simulation output, including writing and updating appropriate scripts;
* Present and iterate upon the created visuals with key stakeholders/management to ensure they fulfill their intended purpose
* Create visuals to compare different studies together or with historical data; - Create/Update scripts to identify inconsistencies in input/output data from the simulations;
* Propose user-friendly interface to dynamically explore the data, that could be publicly shared;
Example of tasks A non-exhaustive list of tasks (and description) is given below:
* Consolidate historical data into a data warehouse;
* Create or update tools in Python in order to analyze different output from the ANTARES simulation tool or other solvers;
* Create visualizations of the outputs of simulations;
* Critically analyze results of algorithms, assist in the identification of key trends
* Data engineering and interfaces between tools
Service requirements (hard skills and soft skills):
Hard skills
* Python (must have) Python is extensively used in existing tools at SMA. Python is a general-purpose programming language whose design philosophy emphasizes code readability. The outcome of the project must be compatible with the existing toolchain.
* PowerBI (must have) PowerBI is the central tool used at SMA for visualisation. The project should build on the tools/visuals already available within SMA.
* React.js (nice to have) React.js is used within SMA for specific types of visualization. Knowledge of React would be a plus
* ANTARES (mainly the input/output interface but also a general knowledge of economic dispatch tool is a 'nice to have') ANTARES is an economic dispatch tool developed by RTE, the French TSO. In the application's core is an economic dispatch tool for the electricity market. Antares allows to simulate the electricity market on an hourly basis. Any experience with market simulations can be valued here, including other solvers. A minimum knowledge of energy systems is also required. Website: https:///
Soft skills
* Medior profile: 3 yrs experience minimum.
* The consultant has knowledge of and interest in the energy market;
* Ability to work independently and in a team;
* The consultant has an analytical and innovative mind;
