Engineer/Consultant

Astrapé Consulting provides expertise in resource adequacy and resource planning and is the exclusive licensor of the SERVM model.
 
We at Astrapé Consulting, a leading expert in the field of electric system planning services, and resource adequacy studies are looking for a bright minded consultant to join our continually expanding business. We are working on some of the most pressing challenges in the electric power industry as electric systems add significant wind, solar, and battery resources while still seeking to protect customer reliability. For 18 years Astrapé has engaged in system planning projects for utilities, regulators and system operators across North America and worldwide. Our consultants interface with system planning executives on a weekly basis as our clients rely on our simulation tools and expertise to solve their ever growing challenges. 
 
Our work environment here at Astrapé is fast paced and demanding, but we also provide significant flexibility to employees. As a small, but quickly growing company, all employees have latitude to determine working hours and employees with 5+ years of industry experience can determine work location (remote, hybrid, or in office). Other benefits include annual bonus, retirement plans, competitive vacation, and healthcare plans.

Some of the questions we help our clients answer include: 
*How well do solar and batteries support system reliability? 
*What is the cost to integrate wind and solar generation?  
*What risks does climate change present to the electric system?
*As the system transitions away from fossil fuels, how will system reliability be maintained?
 
 
Responsibilities for this position include:
 *A range of analytical tasks using Excel spreadsheets and proprietary simulation models
*Policy support including writing reports and reviewing industry trends 
*Research into the implications of a changing resource mix, and collaboration efforts with industry peers.
 
Astrapé is an equal opportunity employer. We’re committed to promoting an inclusive environment for all employees.
