Function
As part of the System Data Integration (SDI) team, you will play a supporting role in modelling and integrating new decentralized energy sources such as solar panels, wind turbines, and combined heat and power units into the Belgian transmission grid. Accuracy is essential, since the rapid uptake of these installations requires our systems to be constantly up-to-date – ensuring visibility and control over the grid.
Your responsibilities include:
* Adding and integrating new generators into the EMS system at existing Belgian substations.
* Determining the optimal modelling of each generator according to established standards.
* Assigning generators (and their connections) to the correct layers in the substation visualization.
* Designing virtual switches to allow operators to easily switch between information layers.
* Maintaining an up-to-date Excel overview of the visibility of each substation. These tasks are carried out under supervision of the SDI integration engineer, and in close cooperation with the EMS team.
Your Profile
* You are studying for a bachelor's degree or have a secondary school diploma with basic knowledge of electricity and IT.
* You work accurately, critically, and can communicate easily.
* Proficiency in Dutch or French is required; basic fluency is sufficient.
* You can work independently but also function well in a team.
