JOB DETAILS
Requirements
- Bachelor of Economics and/or Engineering (or equivalent) and Undergraduate degree in economics and/or engineering (electrical, mechanical, chemical, or renewable energy engineering preferred)
- Proficient in modelling software such HOMER, MATLAB, excel etc.
- 8+ years of experience in energy systems modelling, techno-economic analysis, or energy project development, preferably with direct experience in hybrid energy systems for mining, industrial or remote applications
- Demonstrated experience with LCOE/LACE methodology including treatment of capacity factor, technical inputs, capital structure, O&M escalation, residual value, and sensitivity analysis
- Advanced financial modelling skills & able to build complex, multi-scenario techno-economic models in HOMER or equivalent hybrid system optimisation software with post processing or modelling in Excel, Python, MATLAB or similar with a strong foundation from first principles
- Strong engineering fundamentals with understanding of electrical systems, generation dispatch, storage degradation, grid connection interfaces, and industrial load profiles
- Experience with Australian energy market frameworks including NEM, WEM, NWPS & AEMO grid connection requirements, network tariffs and their implications for behind-the-meter and grid-connected industrial assets
Responsibilities
- Own the quantitative modelling that underpins AECOM’s advisory work producing the technical & financial analysis, allowing clients to assess options and make informed capital allocation decisions on complex energy and decarbonisation investments
- Develop and maintain the practice’s suite of techno-economic models: LCOE, LCOA, NPV/IRR, project finance models for hybrid energy and decarbonisation investments
- Lead technical feasibility studies for hybrid energy systems (solar PV, wind, BESS, diesel displacement, configurations) for mining, industrial and remote applications
- Perform comparative technology assessments evaluating competing decarbonisation pathways including direct electrification, fuel switching, across technical performance, capital cost, operational cost, and carbon abatement metrics
- Develop energy balance models sizing generation, storage, and load management systems to meet industrial load profiles with defined reliability criteria
- Awareness and involvement in government grant applications on behalf of clients and/or agencies including prepare techno-economic case studies for Safeguard Transformation Stream, ARENA, CEFC, and state government funding programs
- Translate technical analysis into client-ready outputs with an advisory style, decision-quality reports, investment committee presentations
- Ability to scope and estimate techno-economic workstreams either as part of larger project proposals or as stand-alone bespoke proposals
- Interface with clients, vendors, IPP’s and specialists to align engineering outcomes with operational and strategic objectives
