Our client is looking for a “Snr PV Application Engineer” to support the development of a large photovoltaic projects in Middle East and Africa (several hundreds of MWp).
The position is expected to last for around 6 months and will be directly linked to provide technical support and solar expertise to the development of large-scale projects in Middle East (including comparison and challenge of technical offers, selection and negotiation with international EPC Contractors for such projects in the region).

The main objectives will be to:

  • Provide overall technical support and solar PV expertise to Client business teams
  • Lead PV plant design optimization:
    o Site studies analysis (geotechnical, topographical, hydrological… surveys),
    o Main equipment selection,
    o DC/AC ratio optimization,
    o AC sizing/optimization (inverter type & quantity VS capacitor banks)
    o Pitch/GCR/land optimization,
    o Grid code compliance,
    o MV HV Single Line Diagrams review and optimization,
    o If necessary, batterie technology and cycling optimization.
  • Review and/or self-perform preliminary designs (Array Layouts, Single Line Diagrams…)
  • Review, analyze, clarify, challenge, compare and rank EPC Contractors’ designs and technical proposals (PV plant and interconnection)
