Job Description
โ Performance Ratio (PR) Tracking: Monitor and analyze the PR and Capacity Utilization
Factor (CUF) for MW-scale plants, ensuring they meet contractual obligations.
โ Deep Data Analytics: Use Python, R, or advanced MS Excel/Google Sheets to analyze large
datasets from SCADA systems to identify degradation trends or equipment underperformance
โ Lost Energy Attribution: Calculate energy losses specifically due to grid downtime, clipping,
soiling, and thermal effects to provide a clear "Actual vs. Theoretical" generation gap analysis.
โ Forecasting & Modeling: Use PVSyst or Meteonorm data to create generation forecasts and
compare real-time data against weather-adjusted benchmarks.
โ Soiling Analysis: Analyze soiling losses to optimize cleaning cycles for MW-scale sites,
balancing cost vs. generation gain.
โ Reporting: Prepare high-level technical reports for stakeholders, highlighting monthly
generation health and proposing corrective actions for system-level inefficiencies.
Qualifications and Skills
โ Education: B.Tech/M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, Data Science, or Renewable Energy.
โ Experience: Minimum 7 years, specifically in solar data analytics or performance engineering
for MW-scale plants.
โ Software Proficiency: Expert level in MS Excel and SCADA systems. Proficiency in PVSyst
and data visualization tools (like Power BI or Tableau) is preferred.
โ Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of PV system, inverter efficiency curves, and
different losses.
โ Analytical Mindset: Ability to diagnose complex issues like PID (Potential Induced
Degradation) or string-level mismatch from remote data.
โ Location: PAN India (Bhopal/Mumbai preferred)
What We Offer
