How To Contribute To Our Vision

Deploys a range of scientific, mathematical, computational and/or data analysis methods for developing technologies, products, systems and services.

Prepare, analyze, and evaluate the main wind parameters to analyze the suitability of the wind turbine generators or to estimate the energy production.

The mission of a Wind and Sites Analysis Engineer is to perform the evaluation and analysis of onshore/offshore wind and waves* specific sites conditions in order to analyze its influence in the wind turbine behavior or prepare the inputs for the loadâs calculation. In addition, other responsibilities will be the re-evaluation of wind conditions at the existing sites for turbine upgrades, re-powering and site-specific issues, collaborating in the definition of the site specific turbine configurations and operational modes.

Performing suitability analysis, energy yield assessments and noise studies for the wind farm projects.

Re-evaluation of wind conditions/updating to the current state of the art at the existing sites for turbine upgrades, re-powering and site-specific issues.

Analysis of wind measurement campaign, compared to long-term meteorological data, e.g., data from adjacent weather stations, to assess whether the site will be suitable for the erection of a wind farm.

Defining site specific turbine configurations and operational modes for the wind turbines.

Wind data processing and analysis.

Verification of environmental conditions in wind farms according to the Standard IEC 61400-1.

Prepare site suitability reports.

Design of wind turbine layouts: micro siting and optimization.

Analysis of the terrain and orographic / roughness maps.

Performing site specific load calculations

Cooperate in the design of control, operation and safety strategies evaluating and verifying the wind turbines loads.

Cooperate with the team lead in the specification and development of new technical procedures/methodologies or tools needed to improve the team performance and knowledge.

What You Need To Make a Difference

Have an Engineer Degree in Physics, Aeronautics, Mechanical or Structural.

Have relevant technical experience (around 4-8 years) and solid knowledge in atmospheric sciences, sites specific assessment or wind simulations.

Have used any of the following programs: Wasp, WindPro, WindSim, SwaT, FarmView

Additional training (master or complementary courses) in wind energy.

Knowledge about wind turbine design standards IEC61400-1, 12; DNVGL

Experience in field data handling for machine operation analysis, ideally wind turbine data analysis, processing data coming from different sensors.

Have full professional competence in English.
